Well might as well just put it out there and ask if anyone has any golden advice or little mnemonics that I could remember for my test tomorrow. I know when I took it the first time I was like oh wow I should have looked at that a second time or I wish I just took a second to memorize that.. So if anyone has last second advice it would be greatly appreciated thanks everyone.

I think you mean growth hormone (GH), not gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH), which is released by the hypothalamus.

And don't get excited thinking about it. XD
 
And don't forget to bubble in the answers. Cuz once during my friend's SATs, he completely forgot to bubble in the answers and when the time was up, he just realized he completely forgot to bubble in the answers for math.

That sucked.
 
Good Luck Tomorrow! Just remember that the MCAT doesn't own you, you own it!!! Breathe deep and be confident!
 
Yeah really ace that thing. Get anything under 30 and I'll kill you.

So no pressure. =D
 
thanks everyone for the responses, hopefully it went pretty well and I didn't forget to breathe so that is always a good thing.
 
how was it? Do you think you did well? How was the testing environment? Anything out of the ordinary?
 
I honestly thought it was easy but I am afraid many others felt the same way too so the curve will be really strict.. I finished each section with 8 minutes left and with 13 left on the BS. There were some tricky questions which it didn't matter how long I started at them my answer didn't change so I had to guess on some and others were just up to the last 2 options which could have gone either way.. You just never can tell till you get your score.. The environment was nice - it was cooler than the first time I took it and I had no problems with the computer so overall not a bad experience.
