So i started studying organic today. YAWWWWWWWN. The reading is so dry... "And alcohols do this..."

But, who is using index cards... not just for orgo, but for everything? I started making some, and the stack is growing quickly. The thought of going thru them daily makes me want to cry...

😉

It'll all be worth it tho.
 
I made flashcards for all of the bio stuff over winter break. I haven't used them once, and I'm doing fine. It might not be worth your time, honestly... memorizing can only get you so far on the MCAT. Good luck with whatever you decide to do! 🙂
 
Index cards are funny...I tend not to use them because by the time i finish writing down everything, i tend to not have time to go over them.but thats just me-
