Leon Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 The ******* site is going through an update. The new layout loads on my screen but I can't see any access to the online student centre. Does anyone have access to the AAMC tests through TPR right now? I'm trying to see if this is a universal problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Femto Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 I have the same issue. I just talked to the TPR people and they are not sure what is going on, but are trying hard to get it fixed soon. He said it should be up and running again very soon. Lets hope! Test in two days and final AAMC planned for later today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by their descriptions, the "dashboard" (Which should give access to the Online Student Centre) should be listed under "View Courses" >>> "Current Test Prep" The fact that it's not is probably due to the technical errors you mention. It's not a matter of hope- this thing will be fixed in the next couple hours! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charmer08 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 I don't like the new layout tho... the last one was better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted August 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 To anyone unfamiliar, you can use Check4Change (Extension for Firefox) to automatically monitor the site for any changes. I'll post here once I get access to the AAMC. Why why why why why would they do this "update of the decade" during the busiest time of year? The level of logic here is astonishing... November is a much better choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdr44 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 Ridiculous. I have been struggling with the website all month. Still not working for me ! Will keep checking ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanillabear Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 I got access to the tests now, if anyone was still wondering. None of my diagnostic scores from the past week have shown up (which was expected, I guess), but I asked to have two of my essays scored yesterday but now the test doesn't even show up as completed. Guess that was a waste of time/a token? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess that was a waste of time/a token? Are you seeing your scores under My Prep >> View Test Scores >> Drill Scores ?? It's still blank here. Damn, I was counting on this to be my most representative pre-MCAT score but I don't think that's happening now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn, I was counting on this to be my most representative pre-MCAT score but I don't think that's happening now. Yes under View Test Scores I have scores from up to July 31 from both full length tests and the practice drills, nothing from then onwards.

HPfanforever Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 Great, 15 min ago I was able to login and see all my tests/score I did up till July 31st but nothing onwards. One thing though, is it just me or are there significantly fewer practice tests available? And now after restarting my computer, it won't even let me login. Sigh.

vanillabear Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 Same number of practice tests, just they are split up into "Core Test", "AAMC Tests", "Princeton Review Tests" and "Cracking the MCAT Tests"... iirc. EDIT: Can no longer see my previous tests. "An error occurred while trying to retrieve your test scores. Please try again later" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why the hell did they plan this update in august????? I thought that initially too because I was inpatient...after clicking on the "+" button to expand the section, wait a few seconds and the tests will come up.

ubcMDhopeful Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 Experiencing the same thing here. I just cant get how a being in our species decided that it was a good idea to update a MCAT prep website in August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted August 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 Which browser do you use? It works with Google Chrome but not with Firefox on my computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
premed14 Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 It works with Google Chrome but not with Firefox on my computer. Still doesn't work for me with google chrome... When I click on a test, it opens up a new window that has a yellow box stating "Do not close this page or navigate from this page while you are working with online content..." and there is nothing else. How are you guys getting the tests to show up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are you guys getting the tests to show up? Using firefox, go to Tools > Options > Content and uncheck "block pop-up windows" because when you click on a test, you should have another page open up.

Intel21 Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 I submitted 2 WS yesterday, but I don't see it listed under view scores . Does that mean they just never saved it? I also did a full length today with the WS, but it didn't ask whether I wanted marked. Have they taken that service out now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are you guys getting the tests to show up? An additional window should pop up if the yellow window is there. I'm guessing it's being blocked so see if you can unblock it. Else try Internet Explorer- these things usually work with IE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
