Is this a prediction thread or a goal thread? We need and "Official Score Predictions For August 2004 MCAT" thread so people can jinx themselves like they did in April. My goal is to not miss a single question.

[Pinkertinkle]

No, not me. Unless it was in one of those SAT vs. MCAT threads because then I like to say I made a 900 SAT and a mid 30's MCAT, but in reality I haven't taken it.

[Psycho Doctor]

are we supposed to predict our own or everyone else's?

 

[Scubadoc]

hopefully noone predicts i'll get a 22 or lower!

 

[stinkycheese]

Predict your own

 

[Psycho Doctor]

well that's better than what someone else predicted for me...and i never got that low even on my first practice but it was close enough

and i don't want to predict my own

 

[Psycho Doctor]

i'm trying to block nervous ness out of my mind b/c tha tcould be the real downfall.

i am really confident that you will do well

 

[Scubadoc]

awww i can't believe someone would predict you'd do worse than that! ignore the naysayers, you'll do great! (we just have to develop our confidence!)

Pinker wasn't predicting Psycho's scores, she was posting an example of how to anti-jinx oneself.

 

[Scubadoc]

fair enough

 

[bella_dottoressa]

I'd be psyched with a 31, and elated with anything higher than that...Happy with a 30...Below 30 probably not that thrilled...

I've gotten a 31,30,31 on aamc 4-6...taking 7 tommorrow..hoping the results of that will put me a little at ease

 

[Psycho Doctor]

oh ok, i misunderstood

 

[ExplodingBoy]

For Queens University (and most other ontario med schools):
The Cutoffs
The academic cut-offs for entrance in September 2004 are:

GPA - 3.62**

MCAT

Both Sciences - 9
Writing Sample - N
Verbal Reasoning - 9
Sum - 32


My goal is 32+. =P

 

[Psycho Doctor]

you can't get into med school with below a 32??? that really sucks

 

[joelmamchur]

Queen's has a high standard for the MCAT as far as Canadian schools go (it's the highest I believe...)..
At frist my goal was a 27 (I was assuming verbal was going to prevent me from a 30) - 30... I got 30 on 5R (I'm taking 6R on sat, and possibly 7 on monday...) so My goal has risen to 33-35. But in all honestly, I would be very happy with a 9,9,9... but it is always best to aim high!
One things for sure.. i will get between 3 and 45

 

[kidgorgeous]

Hoping for somwhere around 30. Realistically, I will probably get 10,7-8,8-9.

 

[Scandal]

I'd be psyched with a 31, and elated with anything higher than that...Happy with a 30...Below 30 probably not that thrilled...

That's exactly it for me. I'd be ecstatic.

 

[bella_dottoressa]

That's exactly it for me. I'd be ecstatic.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you

 

[ethanolabsolute]

I predict 31, since it is what I usually score. I would still be satisfied with a 30 though, anything below that will piss me off, becuase I have studied ALOT for this test.
