MCAT scores

[hugangus]

Hi I just wrote the april mcat and got: PS:8, VR:11, BS:10 and WS:Q. Does anyone know if these scores good enough to apply to US? I think my PS is too low?

Most U.S. schools look for a balanced 30 (10, 10, 10). If your GPA is > 3.5 (assuming you're North American) and you received A's or close to it in your first-year university physics/chemistry courses, you should be just fine but make sure you apply widely to many schools. Generally, an 8 or above is the minimum on each section of the MCAT. Congrats on such a nice VR score, BTW; that's the section that lets most people down.

Ya i got an A in physics so hopefully that's ok, I'm going to try with that score and see what happens. thanks!
