MCAT Test Day and Security
Part of being as confident and prepared as possible to take your MCAT exam is knowing what to expect and what is expected of you while at the testing center.
Examinee Agreement
On test day you will be asked to agree to the Examinee Agreement or the terms in which you agree to sit for the exam.
On Test Day
When you arrive at the test center, you will need to check-in with the Test Center Administrator. You will be asked to sign-in, present valid identification, have your fingerprints digitally collected, and have a test-day photograph taken.
