sprinkles Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Hello! I've seen this question answered before but the search for it is not bringing up any results so excuse the double post but I just wanted to double and triple check. What is the last date that you can write the MCAT and still have it be accepted by McMaster (since they look at your most recent). Can you write any date up to October 1st? Or do the results have to be IN by October 1st? And does it say this anywhere on the site? All I could find close to that is: The most recent MCAT Verbal Reasoning score will be considered valid up to five years preceding the application deadline of that admissions cycle. For instance, for the application deadline of October 1, 2013, any MCAT Verbal Reasoning score dating back to October 1, 2008, will be deemed acceptable as long as a more recent score is not available. No exceptions will be made to this rule. does that mean you have until October 1st to write one? Or October 1st to get the score in? thanks!!!!

Clever Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 You need the scores in by October 1st; so the last day to write would have been August 27th for this cycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcatsucks Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 You don't need the scores by October 1st. The deadline for score release is November 1st, so the September test dates are okay. Some of the later dates in September might be pushing it though.http://www.ouac.on.ca/omsas/omsas-dates/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savac Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Any MCAT date this year is acceptable for OMSAS. Just make sure that you release the scores ASAP. The only real disadvantage (debatable, I know) to doing the test in September is that you're forced to apply without knowing your scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savac Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Did you mean this month by any chance? By association, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
