Class choice my last semester before the MCAT

[sohixe]

Hello everyone. I love reading the forum, but I now have a question that is more specific to my situation and would like a bit of advice from anyone willing to spend a minute to reply. I'll keep it short.

I'm planning to take the new MCAT this coming summer and I am in the process of figuring out what classes to take my last semester before the MCAT.

I have already taken Orgo 1 & 2, Bio 1 & 2, Biochem 1 & 2, Genetics, Anatomy & Physiology 1 & 2.

The classes I have left are:

• Molecular Bio
• Evolution
• Human Physiology
• Immunology
• Human Anatomy
• Hematology
• Epidemiology
• Cell Biology
• Microbiology
• Physics 2

I have read here on SDN that Molecular would be a good choice so I am leaning toward that. I cannot take Cell Biology and Molecular Biology at the same time as they are both offered at the same time.

So my current schedule picks are:

1. Physics 2 with Lab
   
2. Molecular Biology w/ Lab vs Cell Biology w/Lab
   
3. Open

What should I do for #2 and #3?

Thank you all.

Physiology is the most important class you could possibly take for the MCAT BIO section

I second that. Physiology is really helpful.
Edit: Concerning molecular vs cell bio, in my experience molecular is way too detailed but also helps you learn how to analyze experiments, and how to think about approaching a certain problem. It is by no means an easy course but it's really interesting.

2) I was taking cell biology right before my MCAT and it helped a ton.

3) Physiology

Physiology and Physics II are both absolutely critical.
