Just wondering what one's preferences are.
Definitely.balanced 36.....all day...
I voted for the balanced score, but on second thought ... a 15 on VR would be pretty impressive. Don't some schools look at VR with the highest regard as compared to other sections?
...PS is probably the least looked at section besides writing...
Dang, maybe I should have made it "12, 12, 12 vs 9 PS, 15 BS, 13 VR" to make the tally closer.
i gotta vote the unbalanced route. a 15 VR score is hands down miraculous. has anyone seen the grade percentile distributions for mcat subscores (found in the official aamc guide)? its amazing how much more difficult VR is compared to PS and BS. If you have a high pre-med gpa, you probably know science pretty well. plus, a pre-med advisor told me that there is a very strong correlation between the VR score and physician success.

haha... 15 VR is great but I think not any retaker who scored 15 VR repeated the score in a multiyear period (from the last MCAT guide book).
So 15 VR who cares. Everyone knows balance is better and harder to achieve. Much easier to go 15 10 10 than 12 12 12. You just work really hard on the one subject and neglect the other two.
would you say a 15 10 10 (or 10 15 10) is equal to a 10 10 15? (in order PS BS VR)
