3/23(sat)---tentative test date----

8 months studying for the MCAT? The only thing that will do is hurt your first semester gpa and part of your second semester gpa.

Im gonna be a part time student in during this time, so most of my time will be devoted to the mcat

I've been studying since mid-May and my MCAT is on 9/1. I already feel burned out and not as "excited" to go to the library and study every morning. That's just me though. IMO, if you can consistently study for the MCAT for 8 months straight, you have amazing endurance and will probably do great on the MCAT, but I seriously doubt a normal person can study 3-4 hrs/day for 8 months straight for 1 test. Like the poster above me said, that's just ridiculous.

nah, more studying possibly cant be more harmful than being underprepared. I want to walk into the test feeling like I have done everything I can to succeed, only than will I be satisfied regardless of the score.
 
Your post history indicates that you haven't even taken the MCAT yet, but you are presenting this guide that you made up as something that people should use. You imply that it will be successful by attaching the S2N name to it even though I seriously doubt he would endorse this.

I am getting a strong "modified" DC Training vibe from this thread.

Check out his other threads. He posts about 4 new ones per day to the mcat forum.

Seriously dude. Hit up the misc a little more, and here a little less. Good luck with your studies.
 
I think everyone is different, so I don't think any amount of time preparing for the MCAT is absurd. I took 5 months to prepare for the MCAT and still didn't get a 30. I think with a couple more months I probably could have acheived that score. I didn't figure out what really worked to improve my score until about 2 months before the test. I spent too much time reviewing the content (barely retaining anything) and not enough time on problems. I'll be retaking the test early next year, so I plan on studying for about 6 months. For me, it took me a while to figure out what really worked, but at least I know how to improve my score now. I think light studying during the beginning months (2-3 hrs a day) followed by more intense studying (4-7 hrs a day) during the last 2-3 months is completely reasonable (with rest days of course).
 
ok jeez, my misc brothers are so much nicer than this nerdy place

Read your signature again if you think we're nerdy.

I really try to be nice in this forum, but man, you posted a thread asking what it means if you're getting higher scores on practice passages. After so many arbitrary and vague "what if" threads, I was kind of getting tired of seeing your name with a new thread made a couple times per day.

No hate. Just sayin'.
