Best of luck to all of you taking the exam next Saturday. I sat for the Aug 2002 MCAT and have several friends who will be sweating it out on Saturday.
Advice I was given that worked for me:
1) Don't study the day before. Just read a couple of passages if you feel you must, but rest your brain.
2) Don't let yourself freak out over possible mistakes. As those of you who have been doing full-length exams know, the MCAT is never a test you feel really good about immediately after. So, don't obsess over what you may or may not have gotten right in the previous section. What's done is done and the passages you thought were impossible were probably difficult for everyone.
3) Eat breakfast and pack a good, healthy lunch.
4) Most importantly !! Walk in with the attitude that you will destroy this test!!! If you think you will not perform well; you probably won't.
Again, best of luck to all of you.
