would it make you feel better if i told you that i've been scoring mid-30s and got a 7-7-7 on aamc10? i would take an easy practice test before the real thing to boost up your morale. It would be stupid to let aamc10 make you screw up on the real thing.

you're going to be fine!

👍

Think of it this way. It's one more opportunity to review your mistakes and know what you have to brush up on before the actual exam. Perhaps it's a blessing in disguise. Don't let it get to you. Just relax, review, do some yoga or pilates and do some seriously pwnage on saturday !!

 

[ar2388]

wait wait wait!!! i thoguht AAMC 10 WAS the easy one!!!! I took PS and VS of AAMC 8 yesterday and it was awful. I am losing taking it this saturday and i was saving AAMC 10 for last bc i heard it was the easiest🙁 🙁 🙁

 

[tf2medic]

umm i don't know what to tell you. i thought it was easier than the others while taking it, but then i for some reason did the worst out of any test so far haha. i did take all my other tests in the morning and i took 10 later like starting at 3pm after classes were over. so i don't know if i was more worn down already later in the day but honestly i didn't feel worn down at all haha. the curve on this one was also a bit harsher. that might have played a role. IDK...good luck ahha

and getting mid 30s and got 21 on AAMC10! hahaha yess that does make me feel better. thanks! that's worse than my drop 😛

 

[HanginInThere]

Don't worry about one test - it's probably a fluke. As someone else said, better for it to happen to you now than on Saturday.

FWIW (anecdotal evidence, worth pretty much nothing), I had a similar experience. I was scoring consistently in the 30s on practice tests, then had one lower score just before the real thing. ...And then my actual MCAT was a few points higher than my best practice test.

Just don't let that one bad score psych you out, stick with the routine that's been working for you on all the practice tests, and nail the real thing.

It's not a fluke... AAMC 10 is a pretty damn accurate predictor of what you'll get

Don't take it. It's not worth it.

There's a difference between prepping to your max (and doing fine on practice tests), taking it, getting owned and scoring -6 points on the real deal. You start to realize where you went wrong/what to do.

If you aren't where you wanna be on your practice tests, postpone the real deal. If in the back of the head, you're like "I'll prolly get a 24 on the real deal.. but I'll just take it anyways," don't take it.

 

[bodonid]

^^ I think the idea is that the OP was getting good scores on most of them...

im actually taking aamc 10 right now (im on break). i just finished the PS section and im a 100% sure I have seen the same (or very very similar) discrete questions on one of the earlier aamc test. do they recycle questions on the mcat???

what? na man, that's not true. i mean, it may be one of the more accurate ones, but i've read tons of posts on this forum...everyone says AAMC7-10 are the most accurate predictors. i got in 30s on 7-9. i'm not worried at all by this. i'm taking AAMC6 tomorrow and i'll own that to show the mcat who is boss. i'm definitely gonna study 10 real hard tho and see why i missed so many questions tonight.

if your name hadnt have been "bozz" who wrote your post, i would have flamed you instantly. ive read your posts on here tho so i know you know what you're talking about. i would agree with you that i should postpone if i was getting 24s on all the 7-10s. that's simply not the case, tho. and for me, i don't know if i even agree 7-10 are the best predictors b/c ive gotten similar scores on 3 and 4 as i got on 7-9. besides...if i do bad ill have time to retake it in august if needed. thats the only reason i'm taking it this early. i know many of you say you should ONLY take it once but my premed advisor told me 80% of applicants take the test twice. the reason you take it earlier is so you CAN retake and still make it on time for applications. and to be completely honest, i'd take his 30+ years as the head premed advisor at my school over a premed or medical student's advice on this forum. 😛 i definitely agree you should only plan to take it once. you should never PLAN on retaking it...but this isnt like the LSAT where the scores are averaged. in fact, many schools have even done away with averaging LSAT scores now.

just finished aamc 10, did well on ps 13 and bs 12, but did very bad on verbal...5!!!! IM VERY WORRIED, verbal is a hit or miss for me and apparently i missed on aamc10

Despite what some people say, there are a few of us who never really read much to begin with (if at all), and we find it very useful to read long articles in The New Yorker, short stories, etc. I find it really improves my reading comprehension and my ability to focus over a long period of time.

IMHO getting done with the passage quick so you have enough time to go back to answer questions that aren't main idea oriented is very important to people like us. That said, I'm not a "verbal master" so take my advice, as you would anybody elses, with a grain of salt. I've been consistently performing in the 8-9 range with some outliers in 7 and 10, and I think my first few EK verbal tests (30 min ones) were something like 6,4,3, so progress is coming along and I've felt the most confident about my improvements since I started reading a couple weeks ago--and I don't read "that" much, maybe one 30 minute article every 1-3 days (about 4500 words).

Oh ok. Only saying this from personal experience, but the first time I took the MCAT, I was doing fine. There was just something about AAMC 10. I thought it was a fluke and got a 29. Real deal 29.

I only said that above b/c you said you felt good about AAMC 10. But if you still have time to retake, you have nothing to lose I guess.

My suggestion to you is to take review 10 ASAP, take AAMC 6 ASAP also and if you do well on it, let it be your last test. When you are this close to your test you should simply relax,forget the MCAT, just read and most importantly stay away from SDN. don't let these guys lower your confidence. You will be fine.

okay, just took AAMC6 and got a 31 (10, 10, 11). that's a bit better haha, tho i still hope a few pts higher on testday 🙂
