You may reschedule or cancel your exam appointment by the posted deadlines. Deadlines may vary by testing window, and they are subject to change.
Rescheduling an Appointment
You may reschedule your exam for an available date within the same testing year through the PREview Portal. If you wish to reschedule your appointment, you must do so by the deadline associated with your current appointment. Rescheduling fees are not refundable for any reason and deadline extensions will not be granted for any reason.
Cancelling an Appointment
Cancellation within the approved cancellation window is available within the PREview Portal. Please ensure you process any cancellation requests before the cancellation deadline associated with your appointment date and time. Please note that once you cancel your appointment, the AAMC is unable to reinstate it.
Missed and Incomplete Appointments
Examinees are responsible for logging into their appointment on time.
If you do not show up for your exam appointment, or you are unable to start or complete your exam for any reason, you may submit a new exam registration, provided that:
- You meet the eligibility requirements at the time of the new registration.
- Registration deadlines have not passed.
- Appointments are still available.
- You pay the new registration fee.
