MCAT Preparation

The MCAT is offered over 22 times a year. This test requires plenty of preparation through review, studying and taking practice tests. Do not take the real test for practice. The 2012 MCAT schedule should be posted some time this semester. For more information about the MCAT, to access practice tests or for a listing of MCAT dates, please go to www.aamc.org/mcat. The Minority and Rural Affairs Office at the University of Louisville School of Medicine offers a FREE MCAT-DAT Review Summer Workshop for Kentucky and out of state residents (out of state MCAT students only). The program will be held May 29 - June 27, 2012. Applications can be found at http://louisville.edu/medschool/diversity/undergrad. Please contact Ms. Katie Leslie at 852-8109 or klfarm02@louisville.edu for more information. Ms. Leslie also serves as the Advisor for MAPS.
