i just had a question about pre-req's. I am taking mcat in april. I have bioI and II,chem I and II, physics I and I am missing all the orgo. I know call me crazy to take mcat without orgo but i acctually am not totaly without it. I took a year of orgo back in Poland as well as physics(i use ek books and my friend who took orgo LOL... for studying and so far have no problems).
My question though relates to application requirements.
Can I still be in the process of getting my pre-reqs while i am applying to med school or do i need to apply after i am done with pre-reqs.
Thanks.

You can take the MCAT and apply without having your classes complete, however they need to be completed if you are accepted somewhere, before you will be allowed to matriculate.

You don't need to finish pre-reqs before the MCAT or while applying. Basically, you take it for the sake of MCAT. If you can knock the MCAT without take some classes, you're OK. Basically, as long as you finish pre-reqs before matriculation, you'll be fine.

thank you guys 😀
i am still lost sometimes with all the US requirenments.
Few months ago i didn't even know what the DO was and now i am so fascinated with it that i won't be applying to MD programs.
Anyway, thanks again.
