Saving the writing sample on the MCAT

[Mountaincrest]

I wrote the MCAT recently and I just remembered that I forgot to press the 'save' button after finishing one of my writing samples. Does anyone know if the samples are automatically saved once you finish? I've been extremely worried about this!

Don't worry - whatever you had in before the time limit is saved regardless of whether you saved it or not yourself. I remember reading so in the tutorial before the exam.

Don't worry, your work is automatically saved when the time is up, even if you didn't press the save button. This is mentioned at the beginning of writing sample section (during introduction).

Thank you so much! I can't tell you how stressed I've been about this.

I was looking at the AAMC practice tests and it just says "clicking Next will automatically save your response". This is a technicality, but does that cover all the possible scenarios in which you could click "Next"? I mean: is there a difference between clicking "Next" before time is up, and clicking "Next" after you've run out of time?

 

I realise this is a basic reiteration of the above questions, but I just want to be crystal clear on that point.

 

Thanks!
