MCATs




I'm doing some MCAT prep session--basically HOW TO READ THE
QUESTIONS--and have discovered that this test USES NO GUESSING
FORMULA--in fact the directions ENCOURAGE students to guess. I know how
I feel about this (negatively as you might guess), but I'd like to hear
what others think about a National, Standardized Test, used to evaluate
student preparation for Medical School that encourages guessing. Can
anyone offer a rationale for this?
