The Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) is a standardized test administered by the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) to prospective medical students as a means to standardise comparison between them for purposes of admission to medical school. The exam is currently taken entirely on paper. However, a computer-based version was offered at select testing sites in the fall of 2005, and all future administrations of the exam starting January 27, 2007 are expected to be computer-based.

Overview

---

The test is currently administered twice a year, once in April and once in August. When the transition to computer-based testing (CBT) is complete in 2007, the exam will be offered 22 times per year ^*.

The test consists of four sections, listed in the order in which they are administered on the day of the exam:

1. physical sciences (PS),
2. verbal reasoning (VR),
3. writing sample (WS), and
4. biological sciences (BS).
