Guest Steve U of T Posted February 9, 2004 Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 I was browsing the MCAT website (http://www.aamc.org/mcat) a while back when I was bored, and found that they publish rather detailed statistics. Around 60-70 thousand people write the test each year. Among other things, you can see the average score on each section for different geographical locations. As I recall, the mean score of Canadian students was higher than the mean score in many U.S. states. The difference is small, but does indicate you're definitely not at a disadvantage by being Canadian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cptn med Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 Thanks OT6 (for the page) and everyone else for your answers. I know I can find this out if I look it up (and I will) but does anyone know offhand where you write in SW ON? IOW is there one in London/Windsor? Or just in the biggest cities like TO? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tweep0 Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 There are different versions of the MCAT. You will be scaled with those who have the same version as you, in Canada and the US. On a side note, I happened to look at those stats on the AAMC webpage. It seems Canada has the highest average score in PS and BS when compared to all other states and countries. We gotta bunch of science geeks up here, eh?

Guest Kirsteen Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 Hey, Do I hear some broad Scots there--perhaps a Conan-inspired Mike Myerism? Och, it's a braw bricht moonlicht nicht the nicht. Cheers, Kirsteen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cptn med Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 If the test is the same for the US and Canada does it matter at all which country you write in? I am way closer to Detroit than I am to Toronto (15min vs 4hrs) so it would be much easier/cheaper to write there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
