Hi OPMs,
Are there requirements to take the MCAT such as a bachelors degree, certain courses, etc. Does AAMC view school transcripts before accepting a candidate to take the MCAT?
Was not sure of the MCAT process in getting the approval/requirements to take the exam and so forth.
When I took it, you just had to pay the fee, it’s not like the board exams for medical students that require verification that you are actually a current medical student. The details are on their website: https://students-residents.aamc.org/applying-medical-school/taking-mcat-exam/register-mcat-exam/
If memory serves there’s a limit to how many times you can take it per year (3 I think?), but aside from that I don’t think there are any specific requirements.
