MCAT: Scores → 14-Day Plan

I missed this question on an official AAMC practice exam or question pack. Teach me why, don't just tell me the answer.

Section: [C/P / CARS / B/B / P/S]
The question, with all answer choices (and the passage or figure if there is one): [PASTE QUESTION]
My answer: [MY ANSWER]. Correct answer: [CORRECT ANSWER].
Why I picked mine: [ONE LINE]

Please:
1. Explain why the correct answer is right. For science passages, separate what the passage or figure says from the outside content needed. For CARS, quote the passage words that prove the answer; no outside knowledge.
2. Pinpoint the mistake in my reasoning and label it: didn't know the content / wrong method / misread / careless / timing.
3. Give me a one-line rule to use next time.
4. If this was a CARS question, don't write new practice questions; name the question type, give me 3 things to check in the answer choices next time, and point me to official AAMC CARS practice. Otherwise, write 2 similar practice questions (not official) with answers and short explanations. Before you show them, silently solve each one again from scratch. If your two solutions disagree, or more than one choice could be right, rewrite or drop that question. Show only the final, clean questions, not your checking.

Trust the official answer key. If it looks wrong to you, say so, but assume I made a typo first and ask me to check.

Help me balance CARS and science study for the MCAT.

My latest AAMC practice exam: Total [TOTAL]; C/P [CP], CARS [CARS], B/B [BB], P/S [PS]
My weakest science topics: [TOPICS]
Target total: [TARGET]. Weeks until my test: [WEEKS]. Hours a week: [HOURS]

Facts to respect: The MCAT has four sections: Chemical and Physical Foundations (59 questions, 95 minutes), Critical Analysis and Reasoning Skills, CARS (53 questions, 90 minutes), Biological and Biochemical Foundations (59 questions, 95 minutes), and Psychological, Social and Biological Foundations of Behavior (59 questions, 95 minutes). Each section is scored 118–132, for a total of 472–528. CARS needs no outside science knowledge; it improves with steady timed practice and careful review.

Give me:
1. A weekly hour split between CARS, each science section and full-length practice, with reasons.
2. A daily CARS routine (how many passages, timing, how to review).
3. Which science topics to review first, using free resources (Khan Academy's MCAT videos) before paid ones.
4. When to schedule my remaining AAMC full-lengths.
Do not invent scores or AAMC material.

My MCAT is on [TEST DATE] at [TIME], [AT A TEST CENTER or AT HOME]. Help me plan the last 72 hours.

My weakest area: [WEAK AREA]. What usually goes wrong for me on practice tests: [E.G. RUNNING OUT OF TIME, NERVES, CARELESS ERRORS]

Facts to respect: The MCAT has four sections: Chemical and Physical Foundations (59 questions, 95 minutes), Critical Analysis and Reasoning Skills, CARS (53 questions, 90 minutes), Biological and Biochemical Foundations (59 questions, 95 minutes), and Psychological, Social and Biological Foundations of Behavior (59 questions, 95 minutes). Each section is scored 118–132, for a total of 472–528.

Give me:
1. A short plan for each of the 3 days: light review only (no new topics, no full practice test the day before), plus sleep and food.
2. A checklist of what to confirm and bring. Include acceptable ID, food and drinks for the breaks, and the test center check-in rules. Tell me to confirm every rule on the official website, because rules change.
3. A pacing plan for each section and what to do if I get stuck or panic.
Keep it short and calm.
