On the day our scores release, I am going to go to campus and wait for my friend very impatiently. It will most likely be past the time scores are released so I will be on these forums reading up on how you guys did. As soon as my friend gets here, I am going to go to the website, sign in, and let him see my score first. I am gonna pace around the room back and forth and tell him not to say anything or make any facial expressions. Then i will finally look when I am good and ready

I really hope its good so he can say break his promise and say "dude, get over here!".

"You answered 56% of questions correctly on the Trial Section which puts you in the top quarter as compared to others who received the same Trial Section questions as you."

Woah, I thought I guessed on everything!

59% psycho-social. Top quarter.

They break it down by quarters? Really? How hard would it be to just say what percentile we are in? I'm likely going to be reapplying next year, and if I end up taking the new MCAT, it would be nice to have a clue how much I need to expand my current knowledge base.

I guess I didn't put in a "good faith" effort. I did have a major headache and randomly clicked on answers and actually threw up after I left the center...it just makes me more nervous for my actual scores 🙁

Biochem trial section: 59% --> top quarter.

I'll take it considering I blindly guessed on a third of the questions.

Social Sciences, 51%, top half.... Pretty much answered as quickly as possible. Got the gift card.

So it may just be me but the fear is beginning to sit in. Does anyone have any predictions or what you would like to not retake?

same! and agreed I have so much more time to think about my impending MCAT score during Ramadan... But I just realized I'm really glad I don't have to study for the MCAT while fasting.

I know I sound like an ass, but I would retake anything 34 or below. Not sure yet if I would retake a 35. Would be happy with 36+. But I just looked back over the AAMC scales for the other tests, and it made me feel less confident that I got a 36+.

the days are going by really slow. On top of that, its Ramadan and fasting makes everything wayyyyyyyyy slower than it already is! Eating manages to somehow take up a lot of my time lol

lol didnt realize how many Muslims were on this forum. Yeah I had to study for the MCAT last Ramadan and I could tell my quality of studying declined significantly

I was doing the same and ended up postponing it for after Ramadan! I literally thought I was the only one! Good to know you guys are out there 🙂

So I made this countdown for us. Im not sure if it works if i link it but here goes

http://www.timeanddate.com/counters/fullscreen.html?mode=m&iso=20140708T1515&year=2014&month=7&day=8&hour=15&min=15&sec=0&p0=410&msg=MCAT SCORE RELEASE

Edit: Ahh, it appears to be working. Well guys, its been a hell of a journey. I dont know any of you guys by any means but I still feel like we were all war buddies (as cheesy and lame as that sounds). Im sure if we all knew each other we would have a barbecue and play charades.

But seriously, am I the only one who took the trial section and has not yet received their gift card?
EDIT: "Please note that you cannot pre-register for the Trial Section. However, you will be invited to take the Trial Section ONLY after you: complete the core “scored” sections of the exam, select “I wish to have my MCAT exam SCORED” and lastly, by answering “Yes” to the statement “Please indicate below if you would like to participate in the Trial Section”."

Panic attack avoided. AAMC also says you will receive a gift card "if you put forth a good-faith effort." Seeing as how I could only muster up the mental energy to blindly guess on 90% of the questions, I doubt this qualifies as a "good-faith effort." Touche, AAMC.

Me and I think two others said they didn't receive it.

What does the AAMC scales have to do with how you scored?

I'm guessing justacav is just saying that judging by the number of wrong answers that correlates to a certain score in tests passed, he or she doesn't find it likely they will score where they hope.

I just can't believe how close we are and how many different ways I have felt about this test so far. When I first took the test I wanted my score right then, but now I'm getting more and more anxious about Tuesday.
