I took the old MCAT two years ago and the new MCAT last year and didn't do so well on either of them. I didn't really buckle down as I should have those two years to study for the exam but I want to make a third and final attempt to really kill the MCAT, but I'm mentally scared of the exam now and all that it entails. Back then I tried to avoid studying and I sort of have the same attitude but to a lesser degree now that I'm a little older. Any suggestions to remedy this mental stigma?
Anyone have tips or a study plan for the MCAT? I've been hearing that the Berkeley books are good but nothing in specific. I tried doing the Princeton MCAT review course online but that seemed way to structured for me to hit on my weaknesses.
I really want to score well on my MCAT because it might be my last shot of getting into a US based medical school and I don't want to throw that opportunity away. On a side note, my cGPA & sGPA aren't astounding either and below average, which makes this MCAT more and more important and stressful to me.
Any comments and suggestions are appreciated! Thank you!
