Should I even try to apply for 2012?

I'm really hoping to be able to apply for 2012 entrance, but I'm not sure exactly what pre-reqs must be completed before the November 2011 application deadline. I know I must take the MCAT before even bothering to apply, but what about my science pre-reqs? Is it necessary to be finished with Bio I/II, Chemistrys, and Physics I/II already before I apply??? I still have another year of my Bachelor's degree in which I'll be able to complete these classes. But they certainly won't be done by November of this year! Thanks.

you are unlikely to do well in MCAT without all the pre-reqs, so i suggest you to wait for next year.

For the majority of schools, you need to complete them prior to matriculation, not before application.
