2013 MCAT
examinees will not take the Writing Sample section of the MCAT exam. The Writing Sample section was removed to
make room for a Trial Section. The Trial
Section is a voluntary section of the exam that asks examinees to test out
questions for a future version of the MCAT exam. The Trial Section will be the last section of
the test day and it will take 45 minutes to complete. Examinees do not have to worry about
preparing or not doing well; they simply need to try their best. Their answers will not contribute to their
MCAT scores in any way.
