Medical School Applicants and MCAT Examinees
Most applicants apply to medical school using the American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS)—usually the year after they have taken the MCAT exam; for example, a student who applied in 2009 would likely have taken the MCAT exam in 2008.
In 2007, the MCAT exam moved from a paper-based to a computer-based delivery; this change likely caused the dip in what is otherwise a steady increase in the number of annual unique MCAT examinees across this period.
The AAMC operates both the MCAT exam and AMCAS.
