How current does coursework have to be in your application?

I'm interested in knowing this as well. I graduated in 2011.

How current does coursework have to be in your application?

What do you mean?

From what I know (which could be wrong since I am just a traditional student), coursework is always good. Your MCAT score is only good for three years though. Most of the time, to get a good score, you should take the classes for the MCAT close to when you take the actual test.

This is true to a point but anything beyond about 5 years is likely to be questioned somewhat and anything over 10 yrs is unlikely to be acceptable. Schools generally have policies listed on their Admissions websites or will give you this info if you call them.
