hello:) Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 Hi, I am writing the MCAT on August 15th. So I have less than 2 weeks to go and was wondering what most people do in this time. I plan on doing full-lengths (Kaplan and AAMC) basically everyday, reviewing mistakes, etc. But the day before the exam I plan on doing nothing MCAT-related. Do most people do something like this?

Pantaloons Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 That's a good method. Don't do too many practice tests though--save time to review between exams. It's no use to do test after test if you don't learn anything in between, and I think this would mean spending at least a day or two to recap and review. Also, you should be aware of burn-out, which might come due to so many practice tests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelly31 Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 ^ I agree. Make sure that you spend adequate time reviewing your mistakes on practice tests so you actually understand what you are doing wrong. It is more important to do that now than to actually practice multiple tests without absorbing as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roycer Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 I agree with the above posts. Do several of the AAMC CBT's but make sure to spend a day in between reviewing your mistakes and rereading topics you are weak on. I found the newer AAMC CBT's more reflective of the real MCAT. Keep in mind though your actual MCAT will be harder than any of the CBT's, so don't immediately assume you will score as high as your highest AAMC practice CBT score. Though, since the exam will be hard for everyone, there is a good chance you will score within the range of your AAMC CBT's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hello:) Posted August 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 Thanks for the advice. Yeah, I see what you mean...I will use a day or two in between to review some content instead of more practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
