Maple:
Not many breaks needed after the MCAT. Attrition rates from med schools are approximately 0% and USMLE pass-rates are approximately 100%
Med school is easy as cake. You heard that right: cake. I must admit that the volume of stuff to learn is ridiculous, but the concepts are no more difficult than anything several saw in highschool.
That said, the true test in med school will be when at 3:00am you're warn-out on the wards and some drunk guy curses you out and throws up on your freshly laundered white coat.
Compassion, resilience, and passion are far more important than being well versed in greek mythology and ancient Aztec architecture (sound familiar? MCAT verbal baby )
