Dear Bozz,

I'm about to begin studying for my MCAT, which I plan on taking in 6-8 months and I have a couple of questions regarding your study methods:

1. You said you kept a log. What does that mean? Everytime you had (for example) acids/bases question you would mark it down and then tally how many acid/bases questions you had per exam?

2. When you studied 5-6 hours per day, were you taking any undergraduate courses? Do you recommend taking less credits that semester? How were you able to dedicate so much time during the school day with classes and all... Also when you studied would you do say 2 hours lecture, 1 hour practice problems and then 2 hours lecture again?

Many mannny thanks for your help!!! =)
