54 The 5 th Comprehensive Review of the MCAT After 3 years of dedicated effort, the MR5 committee has made its final recommendations regarding changes to the MCAT exam Among these recommendations are: The addition of a new section that will include content from psychology, sociology, and biology The addition of content typically taught in first semester introductory biochemistry courses The elimination of the Writing Sample section 54
55 The 5 th Comprehensive Review of the MCAT The committee has recommended that the new MCAT be introduced in the Spring of 2015 To support the development of new test content, the AAMC plans to begin administering an optional un-scored section at the end of the current exam, beginning in January 2013 To prevent an increase in the length of the testing day, the decision has been made to stop administering the Writing Sample at that time 55
