Studies have shown that higher MCAT scores correlate with passing med school classes and the boards better then a high GPA does.

I did waaaaaay better on my Step 1 than I did on the MCAT. I think it was because the subject matter was much more interesting, so I didn't really mind studying that much.

Physics and chemitry. *yawn*

Really enjoying path and learning it well helped my board score the most, I think.
