So, I have a fair amount of resources to study for the MCAT. I opened up the biology Exam Cracker book, read the intro (it said read a lecture once, read it twice while making notes, take the few questions at the end, read the lecture a third time, then move on to the next lecture). I figured "I can do that, easy study tactic. Read lectures, take questions. Finish lectures, do 30 minute mini test, etc).
I soon realized that if I did that I would be spending all my time (which I just spent a week doing only to get to lecture 2) reviewing content.
But now I have no idea what to do. Tomorrow I plan on reading all the review notes here: http://mcat-review.org/index.php and then take a practice AAMC test Tuesday to see where my weak points are and study accordingly.
However, I feel like everything is my weak point! I don't remember anything from biology or physics. My strongest area will probably be chemistry. Now say I really don't remember anything, what do I do? How do I study for this? Reading the lectures takes entirely too long and how am I supposed to do practice questions (non-passage based) if I have no idea what they're even talking about?
I may or may not be freaking out -- but help!
I am taking the MCAT in January because there is absolutely no way I am going to take the 2015 MCAT. I just can't do 7.5 hours of testing with additional content. I have some crazy ADD to deal with and this course work is enough to drive me insane.
Advice?
