Time needed for AACOMAS to apply my MCAT scores?

[ATPsynthase123]

I have an interview on the 2nd at LMU and they said they need my actual scores by then to make a decision on acceptance.

I took the June 18th exam, but due to a birth date inaccuracy I had to do a two week process with the AAMC to get it fixed. I got the corrections made last Thursday and had them sent electronically around 4-5 pm of the same day.

So does anyone know the turnaround time between when AACOMAS receives your scores and when they are applied to your app? I'm hoping it is quick, because if it takes longer than two weeks I may have to reschedule.

Relax. It took like 2-3 business days when I did it last year. Two weeks would be insane.

I called them this morning and they said my scores were applied Saturday at midnight. For some reason they do not place your MCAT scores under "Standardized tests". It goes in a whole different spot.

Anyone know how long it takes for the schools to receive MCAT scores? According to their AACOMAS acknowledgement email, it takes up to two weeks. Any idea if this is going to negatively delay one's app?

Depends on the school, I contacted KYCOM and VCOM and they both said I should be complete by Friday, others I haven't heard back from at all

From the time MCAT scores are released to AACOMAS getting them it takes usually <24 business day hrs but could be 48. Schools at that point can pull the updated app at any time. You can send schools an official MCAT link that allows them direct official access to your score. You should email the schools and let them know when your scores are in on AACOMAS so it triggers them to update your app otherwise some don't.
