MCAT - CARS Only

[FiftyshadesofMD]

Hey guys,

A friend of mine wanted to know if he can only write the CARS section of the MCAT and apply to McMaster ? Essentially leaving every other section blank ! Would that even be possible ?

Yes it's possible and has been done before.

Thanks for your response !

Putting all of your eggs in one basket is not the wisest thing to do. Even if your friend could manage a 132 with a 4.0 cGPA, there still is no guarantee of acceptance. Additionally, if things don't work out in Canada and your friend tries applying to the US, they've shot themselves in the foot.

You're right, but his background isn't science and he isn't prepared to write the complete test in September, so he's giving it a shot this year.
