Hi all,
I'm an ER nurse who is re-visiting the path to medical school. I had taken most pre-reqs (bio, chem, calc, stat, english, psych) about 7 years ago when I was getting my first bachelors in psychology. I ended up going into an accelerated BSN program right after, and have been working as an ER nurse since. I still have orgo, physics, and biochem to complete for pre-reqs, but my issue is: I've been skimming through practice MCAT questions just to get a sense of what will be on it, and I cannot remember anything from my prior pre-reqs (bio & chem, mostly). Should I re-take these pre-reqs to brush up on material? I've read on other forums that TBR gives in-depth review of all the diff components on MCAT, but I'm worried it won't be enough to create a substantial knowledge base of these subjects. I would seriously hate to re-take these classes as it would add on another year, but I'm willing to do whatever it takes to do well on the MCAT. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
