MCAT 101: Avoid these Common MCAT Mistakes | The MCAT Podcast Ep. 252

[@edhcb9359]

The great thing about the MCAT is that you choose your own score. When you are consistently scoring in the range that you desire in full length test exams, then you know you are ready for the real thing. It’s that simple.

You never ask your physician what he got on his MCAT, because they graduated from medical school perhaps even with lowest ranks. We do, however, ask the medical student what they got on their MCAT, as they got into medical school.

If you know that you are weak in a particular area, such as physics, should you read the book first?

has there been a walkthrough of blueprint mcat site and showing how it works ? are there settings to choose untimed and immediate feedback ? i was in the category of wanting to do content first since i haven't taken the prereqs (or took them a long time ago and have forgotten the material), so i know i would just be guessing and getting the questions all wrong, but i'm down to start with questions and learn the material through questions, as long as i can do untimed and answers are immediately revealed

10 passages in one day is not the same as 1 passage a day. It’s better you do 1 passage for 10 days. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🙌 i used to do 53 CARS questions in one day every other day … but now I’m I’ve been doing 1 passage a day and I feel a lot better. Still low scores, but it’s tiny progress each day!!!

[@rileyjohnson2973]

Lol where's the tipping point? What about 2 passages every other day?

[@MedicalSchoolHQ]

2 passages every other day is better than 10 passages once every 10 days, yes! -M
