How do you feel you did on the MCAT today?

I think it went better than I thought actually. My biggest issue is timing with CARS but that wasn't so much a problem. Also psych seemed super straightforward I was actually a little nervous about it being like that.

CP was hard but not the worst I've encountered. B/B seemed to have a lot of low-yield; hoping for the best since it's my best section.


Getting to work on my AACOMAS app now. Gotta play the waiting game.
