my original plan was to apply without some of the courses at schools that only 'recommend' the coursework rather than 'require'.
I emailed a few of the schools and they said it was possible, but I'm doubting my abilities at this point. I have Kaplan and TBR books. They are pretty good, but I almost feel like I need to take all the courses for a few reasons now and doubt my ability to get a high score on the MCAT without the courses.
I thought it was going to be a bit easier than this. Anyone else in a similar situation?
I'm 33. Haven't taken chem/physics since 2005 and it has really faded. I landed some good internships and have been doing that as well since January, but all of this stuff is not paid, the courses are expensive, and i'm a bit burnt out. The thought of taking all the courses again just seems brutal. It would be fine if they were free or something, but they are not. I'm signed up for bio/bio lab this semester, but I might need to take a lot more.
Also, it seems that applying without the courses could likely be a waste of all my time for the whole process. I'm a bit stuck right now. Thoughts?
