In my last post I wrote that I finally sent out requests for letters of recommendations. I received a yes from a professor that I volunteered for almost 2 years ago. I was extremely surprised by this since it had been a while since we have spoken. One of the professors I was really hoping would say yes actually decided it against since she her position might go away within the next month because of budget cuts and she did not feel comfortable writing one. So now I need to find a science professor to write one unfortunately I am not close with many of professors, which is my own stupid fault.
On Sunday I took my first practice test in a while. Below are my scores and the points I either gained or lost since my last test. I used mcat-prep.com tests, however I bought the 10 tests on eBay and spent $80 rather than $150 on the site. Just search 'mcat'.
- Physical Science 6 (-2)
- Biological Science 9 (+1)
- Verbal 7 (+2)
I noticed that I got done with each of the sections with at least 15 mins to spare. I think much of it has to do with my nerviousness so I tend to speed through everything and that is contributing to my low scores. I am just hoping that I can raise my scores enough within the next 45 days and learn to calm down a little.
Below is a list of places that I found that had either free questions or MCAT practice tests. Please let me know if I missed any.
On my next post I will comment on the test preps that I have used and what like/dislike about them.
