That's cuz his avatar.

 

I'm a senior graduating in December, which can't get here fast enough! The countdown has begun! Any other seniors out there w/ senioritis? I have a pretty bad case myself...

 

That must be his wife.

 

Agent is chillin

 

Hey, I am only a freshman in college!!!!!! I figure I need to get all the info I can, the soonest I can. And SDN is definitely a good source!!

 

i am also graduating in december-- i have a really bad case of senioritits! i just want to sit around at the end of the long hard road. i am excited for the spring--- i get to have some quality off time for once!! maybe i will take a class just to stay in the study mode...

 

is that the first ever mug posted on SDN?

 

Woo-hoo I'm a senior too graduating in May! I'm trying to enjoy my last year in college, but I keep wanting this whole application process to be done with! All juniors, sophmores, and freshman, don't worry it goes by so fast and just enjoy each year.

 

I'm still in college, too. I am a sophomore.

 

Still in college here w/at least 2 years to go.

"Officially" a senior but just starting my new major and pre-reqs.

Good call, Agent. Glad to know that there is some of us around...

 

I'm a sophomore. Three years till med school, but I'm gonna enjoy every moment while I can.

 

Junior here and quite nervous about senior year. If the mcats go well, a year abroad with no science should cure the anxiety! I hope . . .

 

Awwwwwwww, you are all SO CUTE!!! (Especially the little one!)

 

I'm taking it in the spring of my junior year.

 

From someone who had the pleasure of taking the MCAT twice, I would recommend the summer, much MUCH more laid back. Without school, or rather (physics 2, genetics, biochem and some research), things are much better. But then again that is just my oppinion.

 

agreed...my original plan was to take it in april of my junior year. soon i realized that there is no way that i'll be able to juggle school, ECs, drinking, and MCAT all at the same time. so i ended up taking it in summer. my summer was wasted, yes, but i only had to concentrate on that one thing, which was less stressful IMO

 

nope, twice, April and August

 

I took it in April of my Jr. year. - my premed advisor strongly recommended that you take it in April, that way you can get your scores back before you submit your AMCAS and have a better idea where you should apply. I wasn't done w/ all my prereqs either (half way through Physics 2) but you're really not missing a whole lot by end of april - a few weeks of class maybe. And if you take a prep class, they will cover what you need to know. yeah, it can be stressful, but it's definitely doable too.

 

when i decided to take the test in august rather than april, i decided to apply for the next cycle during my senior year (ie take one year off after school). taking the mcat in august does set you back if you're applying within that cycle, and i didn't think that was too advantageous for me considering my grades weren't that hot. but there are plently people who take the mcat in august and apply and get in within that year, so it all depends on what you think is the best for you.

 

for april MCAT, you shoult start now

 

Hey agent, I heard it's really a good idea to take an MCAT prep test alongside your final pre-req's if you have the time/money and it fits your schedule. That way you won't forget bio/orgo when you're finishing physics and physics will be ultra strong from the prep and class. Something to consider...

 

yup...im a sophomore.

oh hey guys,
i want to be a student advisor. do u think it is a good idea. i gave this girl advice about pre-med and she said that i inspired her of becoming a doctor.

 

I dunno, I started in Jan. w/ a review course, and it came out fine. Now i'm a teacher for kaplan, and from what they tell me most people start 2nd semester for the april test. Don't be too stressed yet!

 

Absolutely beautiful family agent.You are blessed! And I am in the first semester of my sophmore year.It just feels like it is such a looooong road ahead.you see people come,you see people get accepted..and you wonder if one day you'll be able to post those infamous words :"I got in!!" I still have my pre-reqs to take as well.But I am actually looking forward to it. I can hardly wait to get officially started!

 

too bad your wife snatched you up! Damn!

 

Your wife is purty too! She is so skinny to have a baby. . .

I enjoy your posts Agent. You will be ripe and ready for med school. Since I am going MD/PhD, we will probably graduate the same year. How whack is that?

 

Yeah, I'm still in college. Sorry about not replying any sooner, but I figured that people already knew that seeing as how I've posted several times explaining that.

I'm just a lowly first-year freshman

It's quite intimidating to be surrounded by people that have been through several years of college already! See, in my Biology class (the first one that's required of ALL Biology majors), there's sophomores, juniors, seniors, post-baccs and only a handful of freshmen.

By the way, I feel like 2badr right now even though I'm just a freshman. The SHPA (student health professions association) at my school is packed with sophomores, juniors and seniors. I often feel like the only freshman there...most of our meetings seem to be just "this is how you prepare for the MCAT" or "This is how to write a good personal statement". Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to join. Ah well!

 

hey it is always a good time to join whether in kindergaten or junior high or whatever schools you guys go to, don't be intimidated by the sophomores, juniors and seniors, just to your best and be glad you started early

 

twice, april and august

i'm still in college, but i graduate in May, too! WOOHOO!!!

 

I'm a sophomore; this year is probably my worst based solely on the number of classes I have to take. I currently have 5 classes, 2 labs, 2 jobs, and I just started doing research. I forgot to schedule in time to sleep. But, I think it's worth it b/c despite the stress and the hard work, I love everything I'm learning.
