"study buddies" for the MCAT sound great... but how do you use them?
(particulary, if u aren't able to "meet" that often). those of you that have them, or have used them in the past, what are some things that you do to help one another study and stay motivated? please share!

If they're the opposite sex and attractive... you know what to do.

Have sex with them after the study session to relieve stress.

real advice: i've tried the whole studying with someone else. I feel that it is much less productive than studying on your own. This is especially true if you've already discovered SDN. you can post any question you have about mcat topics on here, and you'll probably get a response within hours. Get a review book and a workbook (TPR/EK/BR) and just work through the material.

Honestly study with someone is a waste of time, you can study better on your own for the mcat. The mcat isnt one of those things where group studying can be effective. One person is always going to be more motivated then the other or you will both just end up studying slower and talking/taking more breaks then you normally would alone. I agree w/ joker
