This ones got me;

 

 

A buddy of mine said hes gona take the exam in the states, (we are from canada), cause he believes he can score higher there

 

this is based on two ideas

 

americans are less educated than canadians

the mcat is curved based on that specific exam

 

lets ignore the first argument of whos smarter (i dont wona start a forum war!) but the second statement got me wondering....what do you guys think?

Bad necrobot! MCAT not Bar Exam. You'll pass either making such a basic mistake.

 

According to AAMC it isn't curved at all.

not sure I'd want to be worked on by someone graded on a curve anyways.  Just saying.
