I met with the pre-health advisor at the school where I'm doing my DIY post-bac, who said that it is not too early for me to start MCAT prep (for June 2017). I have not taken any courses yet in organic or biochem, and I still need two semesters of biology. So, I'm kind of concerned that (1) I won't understand those topics properly if I try to "learn" them in the course of MCAT prep, and (2) I will be so overwhelmed at the volume of stuff I don't know that I will psych myself out about the MCAT in general. My instinct says that it would make more sense to save the MCAT prep on those subjects for after I've had the classes. Anyone have any guidance?
I have already started prepping for CARS and psych/soc, to the extent that my nine years of practicing law haven't already adequately prepared me, so I'm not worried about these particular issues with regard to those sections of the exam. Just the bio/biochem and chem/physics sections. I've already taken physics, by the way. I feel comfortable using MCAT prep to review what I already know about that.
