Hey everyone-
This is my first time posting but I've been a long time reader. Anyway, my question is: is it possible (or even worth attempting) taking the MCAT with no upper division chem (i.e. orgo)??? As a little background on me, I'm a pedi ER nurse (2 years exp.), so I've had courses that are heavy in some of the bio sciences (such as patho and a&p), but my experience with chem/physics is very limited (one lower division chem. and my pharmacotherapeutics in nsg. school). I've already graduated college with a B.S.N. and work full time nights so I was wondering if it's possible to get through the MCAT just on studying on my own or are they really 'make or break' courses? I'm a decent student (cum. GPA 3.64), but can it be done?
Thanks!
