Hi there,
I'm feeling very discouraged. Spent the majority of the summer studying for the MCAT, and just got my score back and got a low mark nowhere near what I wanted. I plan on retaking in January, and am going to start studying again alongside my regular classes next week. I feel as if I need to start fresh studying this time around, as my previous method is obviously not working. Right now I'm scoring around 8's in all 3 sections. Verbal is incredibly hard and I have no idea how to bring my marks up. PS and BS are manageable, but my scores really fluctuate and I don't know how to get these sections down pat as I feel these are the ones I have more control over and should be scoring high.
I know there are a lot of posts like this on here, but it's really overwhelming and exhausting to read through all of them for advice, so I'd like to start fresh with this post. For any of you who had success in the MCAT, I would love to hear absolutely ANY advice on how I should be studying, what strategies worked best for you, what books or websites to use, etc. I just really need some new motivation to start the school year off right. Any small tip helps and thank you to everyone in advance!!
