Hey everyone,
I'm about to get started on studying for the MCAT and I have some questions about how I should go at it.
1. Should I take a prep course?
-I've done some research, but still can't come to a conclusion on whether or not a course is worth the money..would really appreciate advice on this
2. Should I devote these next few months solely to studying?
-My undergrad GPA was a 2.4-2.5 so I'm also currently in the process of repairing my transcript. Should I continue to take classes (I'm thinking of taking 1 class + the prep course) while studying?
I will also be working part-time (at least) in order to live, so there's that too. And I need to get started on ECs. Mainly, I'm trying to gauge what the consensus is out there for how much time should be put into studying over the next few months, and whether or not other non-trads usually devote a couple months solely to the MCAT. I understand that because of my GPA, my path is to try and get into an SMP, so that's my goal right now.
**Random question: can anyone tell me what NS FL#1 stands for?
