unknown user 7 Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 I'm busy and a bit out of it. Lol. Sorry everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
med_eng Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 I'm assuming since both Aug 5 & 7 dates have a tentative release date of Aug 9, then you can probably expect the same date for Aug 9, or even later since the systems seem to crash when large number of people are trying to log on. That's my guess....hope it was some help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballofnerves Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 That would make sense. Thanks everybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfyfan Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Only a week left from score release! I'm sooo stressed with my summer job over and nothing to occupy my time with. I feel a bit better knowing everyone else had similar not so good experience. I wrote in the morning as well and I almost voided my score as well after my bio.

OneDay Posted August 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Do you think the AM and PM were the same tests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizzle Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 according to my friend who wrote in the AM it was different...... at least the written sample questions for sure (confirmed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamma Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 just wondering (bit silly), what are you NOT allowed to take into the test with you? i.e. do they provide the pencils, pens or do you bring your own? also i read in a thread that you can't bring in a watch..really? and they have lockers available or should you not bring anything (apart from the necessary i.d)?

Hubert Cumberdale Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 The only thing i took in with me besides my clothes was my drivers license. They provided lockers for all of my stuff and gave me as many pencils as I wanted... paper too! (i grabbed 3 pencils... you never know when a lead will snap!)

golfyfan Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 At my test centre no one checked for my watch and I saw someone else wearing a watch, so I guess it depends on how strict your test centre is. Paper and pencil are provided, but if you need new paper, you have to hand in your old scrap paper. Again they didn't have lockers at my test centre, but just put all the stuff in a plastic bag in front of the room and you can get it on your break. Check in and check out took approximately 5 minutes total. My test centre was Willis college in Ottawa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
januarytwenty Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 Arghhhh...so frustrated right now. So yesterday (after seeing Sept 5 + 7 releases) I called the AAMC MCAT people to find out what the release date for Sept 9 was (since it wasn't listed due it being a Canadian only date or something). After 40mins on hold, lady tells me FOR SURE it will be coming out today. So here we are, today. No results. Argh. I shouldn't have called...it would've been easier to accept if I hadn't 100% believed this wait would be over today. Please...let the wait be over sooooon.

Phate Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 An e-mail I received from them... Thank you for contacting the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) program. We have been told that they may be coming out on September 11. You may start checking the THx system after 5:00pm Eastern time, on that day to see if they have been uploaded into your record. Please let us know if you need any additional assistance. Warm Regards, The MCAT Resource Center Staff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

januarytwenty Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 f***!!!!!!!!!!! UGH! I can't do this for another day!!!!!!!!!!! Now I'm afraid...if they don't come out Friday...waiting the whole weekend. This whole process just sucks...stupid August 9 and its lack of a published "tentative release date". Seems like AAMC gives everyone different (and WRONG) answers as to when the scores will come out. I really wish I had written on a "normal" date with a score release date because this is so frustrating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
always_panicked Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 Seriously! (though I think you meant AAMC!) .......I will be vomitting all weekend....I can't concentrate on anything, get any work done, nothing....this is TORTURE!

OneDay Posted September 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 I feel the same as all of you Aug9ers. I really need to know my scores, so that I know for sure which schools I can apply to. I have only started my omsas application, and am still deciding which OOP schools to apply to. And I haven't given my referees their forms, because again, I don't know exactly which schools I'm applying to. I don't understand how hard it can be to get a printout of scores and post them online.

Addy K Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 guess your name isn't "always_panicked" for a reason lol ...just go out with friends and/or do something not related to school, I'm sure it'll help keep your mind off of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
always_panicked Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 Yeap, I'm signing off for the day....going out for dinner to try and forget this whole week! Alright everyone, lets hope it's TOMORROW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

januarytwenty Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Nothing yet... Wierdness though: Just called the AAMC, I couldn't speak to someone in the MCAT division because they're apparently "all in a meeting". I was advised that I could call back Monday ( ) Soooo...what could this mean? Probably nothing. I would like to think they're going to release our scores though.

januarytwenty Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Yeah, it sure doesn't. We'll have to wait and see (something we're getting used to). Maybe our scores will be released anyway...although they're probably still working on resolving the testing problems created by the recent hurricanes. Hey, even though we're waiting for our results...at least we didn't have to leave our homes due to HURRICANES. So it could be worse...
