Genetic/biochem

[DAKAZA]

Do you guys think taking genetics will help me a lot on the mcat or could I just get away with using the EK genetics section? I'm asking because I've heard a lot of people talk about how much the mcat emphasizes genetics and the genetics section in EK seems kind of light.

Anyways, I'm planning on taking genetics and biochem this summer semester (which is only 7 weeks long) to prepare for the mcat. I know this is going to be really tough so I want to make sure it's worth it.

I think genetics did help me out quite a bit on the BS section but biochem is totally useless, in my opinion, for the MCAT.

Take genetics to take genetics. Its such an interesting class.

Genetics is only a sub-section of the biological sciences section. It'll help to take the class, but you gotta remember that there are a lot of other things that will be covered as well.

I think Genetics will help you out more than the biochem. And Biochem can be an intense course, espeically over the summer, so it might be worthwhile to take just the Genetics course and study for the MCAT.
