Having not taken it since the early 1990s (I was a physics undergraduate major, and still am a nuclear engineer), I'd forgotten how much I despise it. MCAT preparation has made me remember, most unfortunately.
Boring, stupid, irrelevant problems that are nothing more than pointless busywork. I can figure out the force and trajectory of an electron in between capacitor plates, what happens when a block slides down an incline with friction, or the details of a spring system. But I truly don't care, it doesn't interest me one iota, and it takes all my discipline to force myself to solve them.
I dread the days I have to haul out physics and practice this stuff. Yuck. I hope the rumors of them deemphasizing it and/or recasting it in terms of interesting biological system/medical problems is true....
