I graduate summa cum laude in 2009 with a degree in biology and medical technology. I have been working full time as a lab technologist in a hospital since 2009.
I was supposed to take the MCAT and apply for 2010 cycle, but because of a lack of resource, I needed to postpone a year to save up money to apply.
I was supposed to take the MCAT and apply in 2011, but last October my grandmother got sick and passed away. I have been working multiple shifts since then to try to help cover the cost of the funeral.
Things are finally settling down and I am scheduled for the Aug 23 MCAT, but with a full time (40hr/wk) job and only 3 months left, I have been trying to follow Snd2ed's plan but I am getting overwhelmed with the schedule. I am starting to doubt that I have enough time to cover everything.
I wish I could quit and focus on the MCAT but I need the job to pay rent. My mother is having financial trouble so I can't ask her for help.
I am really wondering if I should take the Jan 2012 MCAT instead and apply in 2012...
