Registration for the MCAT2015 exam will open in February 2015 and testing will run from April through September.
MCAT 2015 Dates
As you can see, there will only be 14 testing dates (fewer than previous years), but there will still be the same number of seats available as previous years. There will also be more on-campus testing locations. The test day starts at 8:00 AM and will go longer than in previous years to accommodate the larger number of questions (and greater working time) on the new exam.
To encourage registrants to take the exam early, AAMC will provide April test-takers with a $150 Amazon gift card.
MCAT 2015 Fees
The cost of the 2015 MCAT will go up $25 this year, to $300. As in previous years, AAMC will offer its Fee Assistance Program (FAP) – a reduced registration fee of $115 – to help those need financial assistance. (April FAP examinees will receive a $60 Amazon gift card.)
