Hi all!
I'm a sophomore in college right now, and I am registered to take the MCAT on August 24th. I made my three month study plan for the summer, which looks pretty similar to how most study plans are
First month (May 6th - June 4th) content review
Second and third month (June 5th-August 24th) UWorld + AAMC material; BP exams transitioning to AAMC full lengths
However, I recently got notified that I got awarded the Boren scholarship that funds me to learn a language in...

Hi everyone! Not sure if this kind of post is allowed here, so please excuse the misstep if not.
I've been MCAT tutoring for a few years, and always help my students make a spreadsheet schedule of exactly what they should be completing each day based on their strengths/weaknesses, timing, and resources available. As someone with ADHD, I've found that having a thorough outline is very helpful for keeping focused, and eliminating some of the stress that comes from general *I could always be...

Hi everyone,
I have a bit of a strange case regarding the MCAT. Two years ago I scheduled to take the MCAT. My studying was very weak. I think I scanned through some kaplan books for about a month and maybe flipped through some anki cards here and there, but I was distracted and didn't put my all into it. I ended up getting a 503 (breakdown C/P: 125 CARS: 128 B/B: 125 P/S: 125). I stupidly didn't research what it meant to take the MCAT and didn't know that adcoms can see every score, but I...

Hi everyone, my mcat is in about a month and on a practice test 2 weeks ago i got a 510. I want to get at least a 515. I think my biggest problem is not knowing enough content in psyc soc and biology. What would be a quick way for me to learn the content for those sections? I am also in school so I can only study around 4 hours a day. Also does anyone have any good cars strategies ..read more

I took my MCAT today and there were entire passage missing. I raised my hand the proctor saw that and gave me an option to leave or continue or reschedule. I asked how it impact scoring and the lady did not know the answer.
I was not anticipating this and in the moment just chose to continue.
Has anyone experienced like this?
Thank You ..read more

I got accepted to a few MD schools and I'm selling my Blueprint MCAT books (2nd ed). There are 6 books in the series: Biology, Biochem, Chemistry (includes both o-chem and gen chem), Physics, Psychology/Sociology, and Reasoning (strategies for the CARS section and critical thinking for science passages and the MCAT in general). Also includes a comprehensive packet of MCAT essential formulas. I mostly used the online course, so the books are in great condition. $60...

I just finished my first AAMC FL (I did the unscored) and got a 508 (127/127/126/128) according to the converter. I took a BP FL about a month ago and got a 503 and have done UWorld between then and now. I’m aiming for a 515-517 and am testing May 24 while working full time (I am planning to use PTO to take the week before my test off to study) What can I do between then and now to achieve that goal? Is 515-517 out of the question ..read more
