Scores are up! My MCAT score: 32M

I’m very, very happy. I was hoping for anything 30 and over. I’m disappointed with the M, Jumpingbut everything that I’ve read says that it’s not that big of a deal. 

32! I’m so stoked!

That should make me competitive for the schools I want to apply to.

Anyone else care to share their scores? How are you feeling about it?

  1. Congratulations! That’s an outstanding score. Interested in doing a telephone interview for my podcast listeners to hear how you did it?

  2. I also have a 32M did you take any prep courses to achieve that score?

  3. Hi Daniel, I did not take any prep courses for my score. I’ll go into more detail in the future about my preparation but here’s the short of it- I mostly used Exam Krackers and the official practice tests to study.

    Congrats on your score!

  4. I think I got something in the 80-90 range. In 1987. Looks like it’s changed a wee bit since then.

  5. Ha! That or I just did really poorly…

  6. Hi! I just got my scores too… 32M (10V, 12P, 10B). Where have you read about the M score?… I was thinking it was pretty detrimental… What schools are you interested in applying to?

    I’ve taken it before and got a 30 0 (11V, 7P, 12B)… Are you aware of whether they look at both scores because in my case that might be beneficial?

  7. Hey there. I have read that the M score should not be that big of a deal. Just show that you have some writing ability in your Personal Statement and secondaries.

    I’m applying to 14 schools, 7MD and 7DO. I’ll have a post up eventually about the schools I am applying to.

    Some schools look at both scores, some only look at your most recent and some only look at your best as far as I understand. You’ll have to check with each school individually if you want to find out for sure.
