A friendly reminder. :thumbup:

And then it's only a eight week wait for your scores... Haha.

Good luck!

Three weeks and we get our lives back!!! I plan to catch up on a lost summer in about three days of nonstop fun. Then of course there's the week of straight sleeping to mske up for the late nighters this summer.

I hope you are right! Thanks for the words of encouragement. It seems like I've got most of the material down. I just need to review it all together and not make dumb mistakes!

That's a lie, you can improve it by 9 points.

Sure, but that's not the norm. Handing someone the rose colored glasses isn't any better for them than destroying their ego.

The truth is how much you improve in 3 weeks depends on you. Where you are, how hard you study, how appropriately you study, and how quick you learn. There's no way for us on a message board to tell you, you're the expert.

I was just thinking about posting a thread that was titled something like:

"Even though I'm done with the MCAT, why do I keep browsing the MCAT forum?"


I see there are a bunch of us who are done with the MCAT in this thread :D

How much can your score go up in 3 weeks? :scared:
Click to expand...

My score went up significantly (~6 points) from the second to last practice test to the actual MCAT. It went up two points from the last practice test the real thing...and I didn't really study very hard the week before the MCAT. I mainly worked on passages and went over old practice tests. Just relax, take the test w/ confidence, and you'll be fine.

Good luck everybody.

This is what the prep really does for you! It can mean +/- 3 points on the real thing.

Go get 'em guys.... :thumbup: :luck:

yeah i've come to realize that this test is all about confidence...but the problem with me is that one moment i'll feel like i can handle this but then if i hit a tough passage all that comes crashing down and self doubt creeps in..i know its ******ed but its one of those things where you want something so bad but you just aren't sure if you will get what you want...i needa find a way to block out what people say about eveyrthing..you hear all these conflicting things from different people about how difficult the test is compared to practice..good luck everyone...

If You Can't Even Be Reminded of How Much Time You Have Without Flipping Out Then You Need To Seriously Learn Some Stress Management Before The Test (and Before Your Scores Come Out and Before Secondaries Come and Before Interview Invites and Before Interviews and While Waiting for Decision Letters and Before Medical School and Before Step 1...)

Just a friendly reminder. Oh, and it's not necessary to capitalize every word in a sentence.

actually this was probably a good thread for me to click on this morning....need to study more!!!! or rather, work on practice problems, passages, etc. I think I'm feeling a little burned out, which isn't good when there are still 2 weeks to go!

what do you have to do? study for the MCAT, take a practice exam or something else?

i'm off work now, back at home, but will be leaving again in just a bit. i have my physical sciences answer key in front of me from the last full length i took on monday and should be going over it with a fine toothed comb to see why i missed what i missed and so on but yet, other things are distracting me (but quite obviously, i must want to be distracted!).
