Brief Profile:
My MCAT score is from a 2013 administration, for which the writing section had been removed, so the "T" is just a placeholder. The MCAT has since changed to the lengthened MCAT2015 format, but below are links to my relevant posts regarding prep.
I'm ecstatic with where I've ended, but man was getting here stressful.
