I'm sure you did better than you thought. You're a very smart, studious, driven, and hard-working woman. There's absolutely nothing you can do about it and you did the absolute best that you could do. Just clear your head, forget about it, and just enjoy the rest of your summer. You've earned it and deserve a much-needed break before school starts again. You're amazing Sabrina!
Just let go of the negativity sab :/ You're amazing! And super smart, and not to mention brave enough to share this experience with us. Don't sell yourself short, just enjoy all of the routes on the adventure called your life💗 Chin up, beautiful!
Post-test stress is the worst. Don't be too hard on yourself for those science passages, you've come so far already and have faith in yourself! Praying for both of our scores
I just have to comment and congratulate you on taking the MCAT a second time. It takes a lot of courage and dedication to get through it, believe me, I have taken the test three times. After receiving my score the first two times I was absolutely heartbroken. In my case, third time was a charm and I'm finally starting medical school next week. Believe me, you will get there. So many times I've wanted to throw in the towel but if you never give up it WILL happen! Stay positive and it will come!
I hope all your hard work pays off Sabrina. I really love your vlogs where you talk about the MCAT, and how you feel about it. Just know that whatever happens I (and most of your other subscribers) are rooting for you; no matter what you get on the MCAT.
I've been following your journey for quite a while now and I'd really like to wish you best of luck on your results! You are and will continue to be an inspiration to many! I'll be praying for you and hoping that everything turns out the way to studied for! Love from Brazil ❤️
Hey, Sabrina! I've watched a couple of your MCAT vids, and they definitely kept me inspired to continue prepping for the exam every time I became tired of doing so. Shortly after signing up for the July 22nd test date, I saw that you had too! While watching this video update, I realized, "Gee, I'm not the only one who felt iffy about the Physics/Chem and Bio/Biochem sections?" I agree that the CARS was easy (especially compared to the NextStep practice ones) and that the Behavioral Sciences wasn't too bad either. But all the same, we've still got until Aug. 23rd before knowing how well it went. Judging from your other vids, you seem to be a diligent worker, so stay up! God crowns the efforts of those who put him first! -Proverbs 3:6 -And have a blessed time in England!
It's so hard coming out of tests and thinking you didn't do so well but you studied so hard, I'm sure it will have paid of! I'm always so in awe of your motivation toward school.. I wish I'd had half the commitment you do! I hope you enjoy my home country - London, it's a wonderful place :)
Sabrina, please don't worry too much about the MCAT or getting into medical school this year. At the same time, I know how easy it is to say that versus actually doing it. Just know that I did 10 points better on my MCAT retake than the first time I took it even though I didn't feel that much different afterwards. You never really know what's going to happen. But at the same time, after watching your other videos, I really implore you to look into taking a gap year. I know you want to go straight into med school if possible, but I believe it will do you a world of good. This application cycle will mark the start of my third gap year (I graduated undergrad in 2014). And I will be the first person to admit that I never planned on taking so much time off, but it gave me so much more confidence and reassurance that healthcare was the field I truly wanted to pursue. I worked in a large medical facility during this time, did a lot of traveling, and explored other things I didn't have time to as a student. Medical school marks the beginning of a very long journey ahead. The current medical field has many flaws that many students don't realize until they are face to face with them. And I've met several outstanding physicians who would not encourage their own children to go down this path. I really encourage you to spend a little more time finding your own strengths in medicine (not just academically), and from that you will find your voice as a future healthcare leader. I believe that you will get there, just make sure you don't rush through anything. If you ever want to talk about any experiences (MCAT, applications, gap years, life in general, etc), I'm always here.
Aww Sabrina thank you for being honest and sharing your experiences :) Don't be afraid if you do badly, you've clearly shown from your studies and your practice that you DO know everything and have the potential to do amazing on this test!! Never give up on your dream, you're so capable, and you'll do great things outside of the MCAT ^.^
So proud of your hard work Sabrina. I hope you succeed in your adventure, and whether or not med school is the answer, you KNOW that you worked so hard for it. Spend this time relaxing. You've worked hard and sometimes luck may or may not fall into our hands. Also--not sure if you're considering DO school, but that might be an option for you. It is medical school, just you will be earning the title as a doctor of osteopathic medicine (DO), instead of medical doctor (MD). Good luck and be sure to keep us updated! Love you! I've been watching your videos for years now....remembering the good days of the NYX awards and all, haha. Take some time off to cool down and just enjoy life. You've got a long way and you don't have to over stress yourself. Sending lots of love
sabrina you are the hardest worker i know. you absolutely got this! if you dont believe enough in yourself, then ill make up for that and then some. :)
Keep your head up! I feel you girl, I'm a month away from taking mine and I feel the same way. You've been preparing for a long time and you deserve this. 😊
I wrote Saturday, and everything you described was my exact experience--especially the not sleeping part and the poorer performance on the B/B and C/P. I always feel like everyone else writing has a much stronger hard-science understanding than me and that I'm just so much slower getting through those parts. Thank you for sharing this, made me feel way better.
Hey, you are going to get the score you need! I took the 4/1 exam this year and felt very similar to you. My B/B section was outlandishly hard and I thought I did the worst on it. Turns out it was my highest score! Conversely, I thought I rocked CARS... but it turned out to be my lowest. If you were scoring between 505-511 on practice tests you can be assured that you scored near that!
Don't worry too much about chem/phys. If you take a look at the June 18, 2016 MCAT Reddit thread, we were losing our minds over chem/phys and bio/biochem, too. AAMC curves chem/phys the best, so the Scalian Gods will most likely curve to your advantage haha
+thestick ofthruth Yes there is. Otherwise you would get your score immediately after you finished. There would be no need for a month long delay if they don't use some kind of curve scoring system.
Took the July 22nd test. I can relate to bio section. My C/P had a lot of physics too which sucks because I wasn't prepared to tackle those calculation questions. CARS is usually my worst and psych section is usually average. So we will see how we did on Aug 23rd. Hopefully we did good and can apply this cycle.
+hasnii chasnii it's fine! You can do it, and you can think of it as a break before getting into med school! wish you all the best in your next MCAT test and med school :)
Hola Sabrina Quiero decirte que pase lo que pase con tus resultados eres una chica admirable, en serio que ya quisiéramos muchos de tus seguidores tener la disciplina, decisión y dedicación que tienes tu al estudiar, estoy segura de que tu llegarás lejos y serás una buena doctora, porque nadie mas que tu merece tener un lugar en la escuela de medicina, y. Eras que cuando lo logres veras que todo el esfuerzo y empeño que pusiste tu y tu familia al apoyarte habrán válido la pena 😀. Hugs and kisses 😍😘
just wrote my MCAT for the second time too and found chem/physics to be just as if not harder than the first time :( and soooo many unfamiliar terms in psych and soci. but sounds like you really put in a lot of effort and hard work into studying so I truly hope you do amazing! don't give up!
I'm in the same boat! Took it July 8th and literally can't stop thinking about what I got and freaking out about how I think I may have done terribly, you aren't alone haha
Never give up..if you dont do so well this time around its still okie you can always test again,.I met a 4th year med student who said he took the mcat 6 times and applied to medschool 4 times..never give up:)
did you take the ACT or the SAT and what did you get for whichever one you took? I'm about to be a freshman majoring in biology for pre-med and I'm just really worried already about the MCAT.
I really believe in you sab!! Even if you don't do as well as you would've liked, the world is still alive and in motion, and you can always have better opportunities in the future!! Don't give up! As cheesy as it may sound, everything happens for a reason.:)
Hi Sabrina, I came across your page. I will be taking the mcats hopefully by the end of next year. I will pray for you to have peace and patients. Please do upload a video talking about your cats please. Sincerely, Angelica E.
I 100% believe in you. God bless you in this journey and please be confident !!you are a diligent and inspirational person and I am praying for you! Everyone's journey is unique and special so always remember whatever may seem like a bump in the road or a detour it is just a path to more greatness. I can tell you will be an amazing doctor one day. Keep it up and believe! -cue the rocky balboa theme song-
Hi. I am messaging you because I need help with the CARS section of the MCAT. My exam is coming up and I don't really know where I'm at with the Verbal section. I have been practicing 6 days/week and average about 60% correct on the passages I do, timed. I can't seem to improve and I really want to. I have been using Next Step and Princeton Review passages. Do you know which test I can use to get a good idea of where I'm at in terms of just CARS? I don't want to use the AAMC full length's just yet.
I gave my med school entrance exam yesterday, I think you and I are in pretty much the same position... I usually find biology section easy but this time sadly it wasn't since there were a lot of questions which weren't in my practice books, I studied a lot of Chem before test 'cause I find it more scoring than physics but it didn't seem like that in the exam plus I made a lot of silly mistakes which I insanely regret right now, lastly physics has always been tough I couldn't complete the entire section in time 😭😭😭 I literally just don't feel like talking to anyone right now 'cause I really put a lot of belief and hard work into this but it didn't go as expected
I feel like you know your stuff, obviously, you studied for two months straight. But listening to what you say makes me think that all the anxiety you create around the exam is what works against you. You need to have confidence as someone who has studied for two months, and you need to have your sleep before the exam, you need a rested brain. When you get to med school (because you will get there) you need to have confidence as well. It's not just about knowing the material but knowing how to apply it right. Have fun Sabrina, life is right now, *enjoy the ride* 😃😃😃
worst comes to worse you take a year off, you do a post bacc program or you go to med school in the caribbean. Or you take a few years off and do a masters or something else. If you want to be a doctor..youll eventually get there. Relax, you're clearly a smart girl and you just need to relax because stressing with just ruin your health and mental health.
It doesn't seem to me that your knowledge base is the problem. From listening to your comments the format of the test seems to be the issue. If the questions are written in an experimental mode versus a straightforward mode you have to change your approach. If you could give us more details on the specific ways in which these questions are worded we might be able to offer some suggestions. I also think your problem may lie in your lacking an analytical approach. You can learn this. You must focus on the structure of the test. It's not a question of taking and retaking exams. It's a question of metacognition. Thinking about your thinking. You state the wording of the questions is the problem. Could you begin to analyze the ways you react to the questions themselves? This could be an area of personal research for you.
+sooutstanding31 I'm also doing a career change. I currently work as a math high school teacher. I am ready for this change now. I think often on these tests and realize those that score in the 99th percentile connect with the test in a way that goes beyond mere book knowledge. It has to do with metacognition or thinking about your thinking. The questions are being asked in a way that is not resonating with the way some think. It's as if the frequencies are off. As static during a call many are not in tune with the test. That has to be addressed and repaired. Uselessly studying more and more information yet the score is not increasing means that an area is not being adressed. It has to be the format of the test itself and how the test taker is reacting to this form. Bridging the gap between the two may be a good starting point to remedy the problem. It may be a misalignment issue between the two - the test taker and the test.
+Sine Analysis Dental admission test (Dat) I'm a shipyard pipefitter. I'm going back to college next month part-time and would have to do a post baccalaureate because of my gpa, and i need more science classes. i believe most dental programs are willing to accept a dat score up to 3 years after the exam and med schools up to 2 years. The dat can only be taken 3 times. I'm in my early 30s, most people would be done with med or dental school by my age. a lot of doctors wonder if the grass is greener on the other side. at least i explored other jobs first. Good luck on your career change as well.
You'll make an interesting story once you become a doctor. From pipefitter to MD. You'll score high on your medical school interviews because you are a unique case. You can bring a unique perspective to medicine given your background. Non-trads are sought after because we already have the discipline and maturity to deal with patients.

Praying for you!! You're absolutely right...you've put in the time and done the work. You got this!!
What did you major in and what college did you go to?
I'm so happy for you Sabrina! It has been such an amazing journey watching you grow into a beautiful woman inside and out! Thank you 😘
Fingers crossed, Sabrina! You worked your ass off and should be so proud, whatever the outcome.
Keep your head up! I feel you girl, I'm a month away from taking mine and I feel the same way. You've been preparing for a long time and you deserve this. 😊

Love your videos Sabrina, please never stop making them!

Don't worry Sabrina. I'm sure you're gonna do great for all the sections!!! Just be positive!!! ❤❤
Your gonna do great! Your aamc scored is really high. I took the exam as well. B/B and C/P was just ridiculous. Hope we all did well!
Don't worry too much about chem/phys. If you take a look at the June 18, 2016 MCAT Reddit thread, we were losing our minds over chem/phys and bio/biochem, too. AAMC curves chem/phys the best, so the Scalian Gods will most likely curve to your advantage haha

Make a video on the study tips/techniques you used!!

CARS is usually my worst and psych section is usually average. So we will see how we did on Aug 23rd. Hopefully we did good and can apply this cycle.
how did you do?
Bad. Worst score than all of my practice test. I got very depressed but accepting the reality.
Now. Gonna take it next year
+hasnii chasnii it's fine! You can do it, and you can think of it as a break before getting into med school! wish you all the best in your next MCAT test and med school :)
thanks you so much. I would have take it again this year but there are no more slots available. So I will have to take a gap year,

BEST OF LUCK!! I believe in you
Did you do the B/BC section bank? Was the section in the same difficulty as July 22nd?
You're so smart Sabrina! believe in yourself. You studied hard for two months and did your best, no matter what the result says.
U put in the hard work! U will get good results!
Wow I wish I had your motivation and dedication to study, perhaps a new study tips/motivation video?
Be positive :) everyone feels terrible after MCAT. Keep smiling
Your chem and physics and bio and biochem sound like the gamsat science section aka if apples are green how many grapes are there type of questions.
I'm in the same boat! Took it July 8th and literally can't stop thinking about what I got and freaking out about how I think I may have done terribly, you aren't alone haha
Thank you so much for posting this!
I'm sure you rocked it! And you won't have to take it again. Hope you enjoy the rest of your summer :)
Im working on my master thesis and you are such an inspiration! what is this necklace, does it bring you good luck? its so pretty, ...just like you :)
Never give up..if you dont do so well this time around its still okie you can always test again,.I met a 4th year med student who said he took the mcat 6 times and applied to medschool 4 times..never give up:)
can you do a skincare routine?
Sabrina where did you get your necklace from I love it
You're great Sabrina! I'm hoping for the best :)
did you take the ACT or the SAT and what did you get for whichever one you took? I'm about to be a freshman majoring in biology for pre-med and I'm just really worried already about the MCAT.
What sort of gen chem equations and calculations were you having trouble with in the c/p section?
I really believe in you sab!! Even if you don't do as well as you would've liked, the world is still alive and in motion, and you can always have better opportunities in the future!! Don't give up! As cheesy as it may sound, everything happens for a reason.:)
When you said you read the khan academy notes, do you mean the youtube videos they have?
Hey Sabrina, Could you upload that psych/soc notes somewhere? taking mcat soon, would really appreciate it. Thank you and I hope you did well
Hi Sabrina,
I came across your page. I will be taking the mcats hopefully by the end of next year. I will pray for you to have peace and patients. Please do upload a video talking about your cats please.
Sincerely,
Angelica E.
Wish you all the best!
if you didnt do well this time are you going to take it again?
GOOD LUCK SABS!!
I 100% believe in you. God bless you in this journey and please be confident !!you are a diligent and inspirational person and I am praying for you! Everyone's journey is unique and special so always remember whatever may seem like a bump in the road or a detour it is just a path to more greatness. I can tell you will be an amazing doctor one day. Keep it up and believe! -cue the rocky balboa theme song-
I'm just like you. I'm not optimistic, I'm realistic. You seem like you could be an awesome doc! Keep up the good work and don't get discouraged:)
Hi. I am messaging you because I need help with the CARS section of the MCAT. My exam is coming up and I don't really know where I'm at with the Verbal section. I have been practicing 6 days/week and average about 60% correct on the passages I do, timed. I can't seem to improve and I really want to. I have been using Next Step and Princeton Review passages. Do you know which test I can use to get a good idea of where I'm at in terms of just CARS? I don't want to use the AAMC full length's just yet.
What resources did you use to review psych/soc terms? (Besides khan academy)
I gave my med school entrance exam yesterday, I think you and I are in pretty much the same position... I usually find biology section easy but this time sadly it wasn't since there were a lot of questions which weren't in my practice books, I studied a lot of Chem before test 'cause I find it more scoring than physics but it didn't seem like that in the exam plus I made a lot of silly mistakes which I insanely regret right now, lastly physics has always been tough I couldn't complete the entire section in time 😭😭😭 I literally just don't feel like talking to anyone right now 'cause I really put a lot of belief and hard work into this but it didn't go as expected
Everyday including weekends?
What book do you recommend for the mcat
Yes! The wait really kills you. The course that I am doing makes us wait for two and a half months to know our results. It's just horrible!
I'm sure you did great, you deserve it!
I'm sorry you had bad luck with some of them, but I think you are going to do great anyway :) No matter what, you are so smart and awesome!! :)
quick question. how do you think the second exam was compared to your first time round with respect to the difficulty?
I wish u the best Sabrina 😊
How many times can u take the mcat
Come on girl, you gotta get you some confidence! It feels so much better and is better on your morale.
Hopefully you did well.
I believe in you girl!
sab you are going to do well if not just remember life doesn't stop at one station
If you failed, there is always another test!! It may take a couple more times, but it will work out the way its supposed to. God has a plan Sabrina!
love u gril ur amazing keeping going and carry on making videos
Thank you for being informative and an inspiration. Keep on being you :)
I don't know of any physics questions that aren't calculation based :/
What is your second choice of education? Like if you don't get into med school? Hope you did well xxxx
Can you do a update hair care routine ❤️
you WILL get the score you want :) stay positive
I feel like you know your stuff, obviously, you studied for two months straight. But listening to what you say makes me think that all the anxiety you create around the exam is what works against you.
You need to have confidence as someone who has studied for two months, and you need to have your sleep before the exam, you need a rested brain.
When you get to med school (because you will get there) you need to have confidence as well. It's not just about knowing the material but knowing how to apply it right.
Have fun Sabrina, life is right now, *enjoy the ride* 😃😃😃
I hope you did well *new subbie*
You are a very hardworking anthropogenic Sabrina!
Stay strong!! Xo
Don't worry you worked hard.👍
You got it, girl. ...
I hope you get the score you want. But first: Enjoy your vacation :)
LOL yesssssss xD this was literally everything that i experienced taking it too >< fml. taking it again in january!
Love u Sabrina 💜💓💓💕💕💕💕❤️💙💙💙💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 fighting
Stay positive :)
I bet you did great :):)
You look like Rowan Blanchard!
are you indian?
YOU DID IT! You're going to med school :D
worst comes to worse you take a year off, you do a post bacc program or you go to med school in the caribbean.
Or you take a few years off and do a masters or something else.
If you want to be a doctor..youll eventually get there.
Relax, you're clearly a smart girl and you just need to relax because stressing with just ruin your health and mental health.

It's a question of metacognition. Thinking about your thinking. You state the wording of the questions is the problem. Could you begin to analyze the ways you react to the questions themselves? This could be an area of personal research for you.
Damn your answer help me. I'm taking the DAT next year and the MCAT in 2018. doing a change of career.
+sooutstanding31 I'm also doing a career change. I currently work as a math high school teacher. I am ready for this change now. I think often on these tests and realize those that score in the 99th percentile connect with the test in a way that goes beyond mere book knowledge. It has to do with metacognition or thinking about your thinking. The questions are being asked in a way that is not resonating with the way some think. It's as if the frequencies are off. As static during a call many are not in tune with the test. That has to be addressed and repaired. Uselessly studying more and more information yet the score is not increasing means that an area is not being adressed. It has to be the format of the test itself and how the test taker is reacting to this form. Bridging the gap between the two may be a good starting point to remedy the problem. It may be a misalignment issue between the two - the test taker and the test.
+sooutstanding31 What is the DAT?
+Sine Analysis Dental admission test (Dat) I'm a shipyard pipefitter. I'm going back to college next month part-time and would have to do a post baccalaureate because of my gpa, and i need more science classes. i believe most dental programs are willing to accept a dat score up to 3 years after the exam and med schools up to 2 years. The dat can only be taken 3 times. I'm in my early 30s, most people would be done with med or dental school by my age. a lot of doctors wonder if the grass is greener on the other side. at least i explored other jobs first. Good luck on your career change as well.
You'll make an interesting story once you become a doctor. From pipefitter to MD. You'll score high on your medical school interviews because you are a unique case. You can bring a unique perspective to medicine given your background. Non-trads are sought after because we already have the discipline and maturity to deal with patients.
You are a very hardworking anthropogenic Sabrina!
