WHAT WILL BE DIFFERENT ABOUT THE MCAT EXAM IN 2013
AND 2014?
If you plan to take the MCAT exam in 2013 or 2014, please note that the Writing Sample
section will no longer be part of the exam. In its place, a voluntary, unscored trial section
will be added to the MCAT exam starting in January 2013. The unscored questions on the
Trial Section will test content that will be added to the MCAT in 2015, including content
in psychology, sociology, and biochemistry. The Trial Section will consist of 32 questions
and will be administered in a 45-minute time period after all three operational sections
(Physical Sciences, Verbal Reasoning, and Biological Sciences) have been administered.
Including the Trial Section, the 2013 and 2014 total testing time will be shorter than it was
in 2012.

One of the Fastest Growing Careers in America
Anesthesiologists are Doctors of Medicine (MDs) that concentrate on
the care of surgical patients and pain relief. As with other physicians,
they evaluate and treat patients and direct the efforts of those on
their staffs. Some of the primary responsibilities of an anesthesiolo-
gist include examining patient to determine the type of anesthetic
needed, communicating all relevant information to the appropriate
medical practitioners, and administering local, intravenous, or spinal
anesthetic to the patient.
