Use of a Simulated MCAT to Predict Real MCAT ScoresMedical Education Preparatory Program, School of Medicine, Southern Illinois University
Medical Education Preparatory Program, School of Medicine, Southern Illinois University
Department of Guidance and Educational Psychology, Southern Illinois University A Mock MCA Twas developed and administered to 39 premedical students two weeks prior to the April 1977 administration of the New MCAT. Mock MCAT results were provided to these studentsfor each of the six areas of the actual MCA T. Twenty-seven examinees also took the real MCAT. Correlation coefficients between real and Mock MCA T scores were obtained and stepwise regression analysis was used to determine the extent to which the Mock MCA T could predict real MCA T scores. Correlations of .85, .76, .74, .81, .82, and .81 were obtained for biology, chemistry, physics, science problems, reading, and quantitative areas, respectively.
