How to be productive while waiting for job offers?

The past few weeks I have been interviewing for various jobs from research to healthcare to teaching. But I have no idea what my chances are. I still have classes right now but I can't get myself to do anything. I just sit at the computer all day watching useless stuff, waiting for my phone to ring. If I get a job then I don't need to worry about retaking the mcat, but if I don't then I need to look for more jobs. What should I do to motivate myself? Or should I just relax right now?

You can always volunteer. I volunteer in the evenings at the local free clinic and once or twice a week walking dogs at the local dog shelter. You do have to go through orientation and training for most volunteer positions, but chances are, the job search will be long.

I guess I really don't understand your question, but if you don't have a solid job lined up, you should definitely keep looking/interviewing. You can't control when/if people will get back to you, so there's no point in just sitting around hoping. Your motivation should be the possibility that you end up not having a job at the end of all this.
