What are the MCAT test?
It is similiar to the ACT / SAT in that it is a determinant as to whether you will be accepted within a particular school based upon the required score. Just like the ACT / SAT gauges if you will likely succeed in getting a college degree if you obtain a particular score or higher the same applies to the MCAT in regard to medical school. Here is a link to a pdf file that covers the MCAT essentials: http://www.aamc.org/students/mcat/mcates… This is the official site for the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT).

I don’t think people realize how difficult it can be with the duration of time, stress level, and the competiveness
