Hi, I'm a sophomore in college and a biopsychology major and plan to go to med school. The problem is that I've only taken bio I and II so far and I'll be a junior in the fall. Right now I plan to take Chem I and II over the summer so I can take organic in the fall along with calc. But I'm seeing that you should take the MCATs the end of junior year and I still will not even have touched physics.
So first question: is it necessary to take a calculus based physics? If not, would I be killing myself to take physics in the fall? (I'll be taking it along with orgo, calc, and psych stats, and possibly another psych course, and knowing math is not really my strongest subject). I'm really worried about what to do, along with the fact I really need to find some kind of experience like shadowing. I don't live near a teaching hospital so does anyone know if other hospitals would allow me to shadow? I feel like I'm so behind in the process of preparing. Please help!
Thanks!
