What if I don’t score well on the MCAT® the first time? How many times can I take it?

October 22nd, 2009 · No Comments

Beginning in January 2007, you can take the MCAT up to three times per calendar year. If you aren’t satisfied with your MCAT scores, your prehealth advisor can help you decide if you should retake the exam. Also consider contacting the student affairs office or minority/diversity affairs representatives at neighboring medical schools for their perspectives.
Legitimate reasons for retaking the MCAT include:
If there is a significant discrepancy between your college grades and MCAT scores,
If you took the test prematurely, that is, without adequate preparation or before finishing all relevant premedical coursework (Try to avoid this situation!),
If you were seriously ill at the time of the exam, or
If you get a recommendation from a medical school admissions officer or admissions committee member that the MCAT should be retaken.
