Hi, guys. Here's my situation:
I am a senior psychology major at my university. I decided to commit to taking pre-medical courses pretty late in the game, so I am about to graduate in May and at that time, I will be finished with Zoology, Microbiology, General Chemistry I & II (w/ labs), Organic Chemistry I w/ lab, and Physics I. When I graduate in May, I will have one month free before I begin Organic Chemistry II and Physics II in separate summer sessions. I will be taking the MCAT on August 14th (two weeks after I finish my last summer class).
First of all, I realize this situation is NOT ideal, but I am confident that I am ready to apply for the Fall 2010 cycle. Since I already know my MCAT date, what can I do to start studying now?
I plan to buy the EK Complete Study Package, all EK 1001 question books, Audio Osmosis, EK 101 VR Passages, Nova Physics, and Org. Chem. as a Second Language, and AAMC practice tests.
What should I focus on this semester (while I'm in OC I & Physics I)? Should I start trying to teach myself anything early? What should I focus on over the summer? I know my time will be somewhat limited, but I have about seven months to study and I am doing fine in my classes.
Any advice would be very much appreciated!
