i'm away on vacation this week visiting my brother in fort lauderdale.... so i've been studying about 6 hours a day while he's at work. other than that, i've been studying a little at home throughout the past couple of weeks, but nothing extensive. i know i have a lot of work to do in the next two weeks...
when i took the mcat in april i studied my butt off every day for two months before the test and i got so sick of it by the end that i couldn't study for the last two weeks before the test. i think that's one of the things that messed me up... like some of you guys were saying, i definitely work best when i "cram" and have everything relatively fresh in my mind.
and the other thing was that i was so stressed out when i took the april test that i ruined myself. at least now it's summer and i am more relaxed, which i think will be better.
one of my best friends took the aug 2001 mcat while her younger brother was in the hospital, two weeks after her boyfriend of two years broke up with her, and she was in the middle of a nervous breakdown... and she got a 29.
i guess it's different for everyone. i'm just glad i'm not as stressed as i was in april... i think i totally psyched myself out.
anyway, good luck to everyone on the 17th... i'll be there with you.
