Computerized format in works for MCAT
By KATIE O'NEAL | September 29Upcoming changes to the Medical College Admission Test will make the test easier to take and grade, officials say, but many pre-med students are concerned it could negatively affect their grades. The Association of American Medical Colleges recently announced that the old pencil-and-paper format of the MCAT soon will give way to a more advanced computer-based format. This shift, set to take place in 2007, will mark the first significant change in the MCAT in more than a decade, said Amjed Mustafa, MCAT program manager for Kaplan Inc.
