The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) will change the scoring scale on its new Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) to emphasize test-takers who score near the mid-point.
The new MCAT exam, which launches in April 2015, will have an increased focus on how test-takers apply knowledge and will include a new section about the role of behavioral and sociocultural factors in health and illness.
