This video made me better at CARS, holy cow! So, I've never scored above 124-125 on CARS because I always run out of time with >2 passages remaining, but that didn't happen yesterday. I got 45/53 on the AAMC sample test which apparently equates to a 128 with time to spare. And I was able to fix a flagged question in that extra time. You two are a godsend!
needed the advice at the end- I take it personally when I can't figure out a C/P question and its my worst section because there's at least 1 or 2 passages I don't get to!!
For the science passages (CP/BB/PsS) give yourself 4 minutes to read/flowchart the passage and 1 minute per question. Some questions will take you 30 seconds, some will take you 90 seconds. Just aim for a minute and it'll all work out!
You can skip through and do individual packages but unless they’ve changed it since I last looked at it, you have to reset the exam pretty much every time you wanna do a different passage if it’s in a prior section (going from BB to CP or whatever) it’s super annoying but you have infinite resets on AAMC!
Hi. Is it advisable to take MCAT without taking biochemistry. I didn't realize it is 25% of the exam! Classes taken so far, gen chem, ben bio, org. chem, cell bio, immunology, anatomy, physics and genetics. Thanks.
I hate to say it, but biochemistry is kind of a mandatory for the MCAT:-/ I think lots of med schools require it anyway(?) so it’d be a good one to take if you can!
I wanted to come back and say that I had 4 interviews this cycle and got accepted into medical school (md). Thank you IFD for making this possible!
Congratulations!!! You’re going to be a doctor!!!!! So proud!
I made a 511 on the 5/27 test! Thank you IFD!!!
Congratulations! You’re gonna be a doctor!!!

Hi, what should the timing charts look like for the other sections of the MCAT?
For the science passages (CP/BB/PsS) give yourself 4 minutes to read/flowchart the passage and 1 minute per question. Some questions will take you 30 seconds, some will take you 90 seconds. Just aim for a minute and it'll all work out!
Not gonna lie... Eating 75 nuggets might be even more impressive than a 90th percentile MCAT score haha
What about the 94 I ate the year after that?? No joke. It's my true calling.
@@InformingFutureDoctors Don’t know whether I should be impressed or concerned
I really appreciate all this content tho. Yall are great 🙌🏾
@@TheJakobe00 concerned. This is a cry for help.
@@InformingFutureDoctors Prayers up. Enjoy your nuggets in moderations brother 🙏🏾
weird question but is it possible for me to complete individual passages from the sample test of do I have to do the whole thing?
