Im new to SDN & am looking for Pre-Med advice. My college is in the process of merging, so my advisors dont have as much pre-med advice as I would like. I have tons of questions! Can anyone help?
1) How much chemistry & Physics do I need to take before taking the MCAT?
2) Do most Med-Schools want you to have taken 2 calc classes, or is 1 sufficient?
3) Can I take the MCAT & apply for schools in my senior year & then start med school the following fall, or do I have to take a lag year?
4) What makes a med student stand out? (other than grades, MCAT scores, & letters of recommendation)
5) Do med-schools look down on small state schools that arent as well known?
6) What type of hands on experience should I be getting before I apply?
