Hey, If you applied this year, when did you take your MCAT? There have, obviously been some discrepancies in my mind as to when to take the MCAT since I also plan to graduate in three years!! Help!! Also, for those that say that you can't graduate in three years an get into med school because of age, I've dealt with the age issue all my life! I will be a junior (specifically 4 credits short of being a senior) when I am 19! I started K5 early, so obviously, that puts me ahead in academic/ education all my life. Also, I have never dropped below a 3.5 GPA- the maturity issue depends on the person and thier own personal drive... Oh yeah, my original question was... when to take the MCAT when completing a Bachelor's in 3 years. Thank you so much!!

I took the MCAt in April of my sophmore year. I recommend that you try to complete all the pre-reqs for the MCAT (Bio, OChem, Gchem, Physics) before you take the MCAt so that you don't have to teach yourself anything new.

Good luck!

I see it this way: you have your ENTIRE LIFE to be a physician. College is an experience, not just a means to becoming a doctor. Stop and smell the roses!

right on the money

I couldve finished in 3 years, but its definately worth it to just spend 4 years. I ended up doing a double major to fill up some of the course time (taking 15 units this semester)

I'd give one leg, a nut, both pinkies and an eye to be back in college. If you're eager to leave you're not doing it right.
