#AAMC SHORTENED MCAT PRACTICE TEST PROFESSIONAL#
At this time, the only way to administer fair and accurate tests is in professional testing centers. The AAMC has studied this option carefully and we have concluded at this time that there is no way to ensure equal access and test integrity by administering an online proctored exam.Īs testing technology advances and issues of access are better addressed, we will continue to re-examine this issue. Will the AAMC offer remote online proctored administrations? If circumstances change, we have built in the flexibility to respond. We are basing these plans on the best information available to us at this time. But, after January, we will return to the typical 30- to 35-day score reporting schedule for exams administered in March and beyond. We have added an extra January test (33% more testing capacity) and will be reporting scores from the January exams in two weeks rather than four because we think that some 2021 applicants still want to test. In 2021, we expect to administer tests on a normal full-year schedule, while preserving the flexibility to make changes in response to the changing context. The testing plan for 2021 is designed for our current context and allows flexibility in the event that conditions change. Testing Plans for 2021 Why aren’t you keeping the shortened exam and continuing to expedite scores?Ģ020 was an exceptional year and we adjusted to the unusual circumstances we all faced.
