HI

HOW MANY PRE-REQ SCIENCE CLASSES DID YOU TAKE PER SEMESTER BY TIME YOU TOOK YOUR MCAT? AFTER COMPLETING EACH SCIENCE CLASS, DID YOU REVIEW OVER THE MATERIAL TO MAKE SURE YOU REMEMBERED EVERYTHING? YOUR HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED.

For pre-req science courses, two per year year. Biology and Chemistry freshman year and Physics and Ochem second year among other things.

And no, reviewing all your material is rather pointless and stupid really. I thought I should review them too for the MCAT. But in those classes (except maybe biology) probably more than 50% of the material you learn is WAY to in-depth.

As long as you have a good feel for the material as in your understand the concepts, how they apply to each other and can play with them you should be more than fine to take a prep course and play with the big boys.
