The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) is committed to providing all individuals with an opportunity to demonstrate their proficiency on the MCAT exam, and that includes ensuring access to those with disabilities in accordance with relevant law.

Students with disabilities who feel adjustment(s) are necessary are encouraged to apply for accommodated testing.

How do you know if you need accommodated testing?

You need to apply for accommodations if you have a condition or disability for which you would like to request a deviation from the standard testing environment. For example, presentation of testing materials in large print, extra testing time, a separate testing room, or an authorization to bring in an inhaler, water, or hard candy all constitute accommodated testing.

For Applicants: How do you apply?
