Mi Wife and my roomate are both currently studying for the MCAT and writing a chronicle of it for all to see. It's really just the beginning, but it covers everything from specific MCAT discussions, coffee, and current events to life, distractions and love.

http://forty-four-s.blogspot.com/

I know how stressed out pre-meds are, and even how competitive it is as a pre-med so if you are currently in the process this could be very insightful. It will help to normalize your experience

I read Pandabear MD's blog for my daily dose of cynicism if I can't find it straight off of SDN.

Loooove his descriptions of the different specialties.

No one's put medschool hell yet?

I think he "retired," though, because he's been out of med school for a while.

http://ahyesmedschool.blogspot.com/

Pretty funny to me.

I think he has a residency blog now that's also pretty funny

http://ahyesresidency.blogspot.com/

He doesn't post that often. I guess he's too busy saving lives or something.

(aka, respectful insolence)
