I've rescheduled for the 13th (was scheduled for April 12th🙄 ). Who else is taking it in July?

I will be taking it on July 13th as well.

Just got my Examkrackers study books.

I rescheduled for July 13 and my husband reschedule for July 24. He was May11 and I was May 25. We'll both be applying this year and both currently MPH students. I'm also taking two prereqs and he has a work study job as well as teaching one course and I'm a stay at home mom. We work our schedules out so one of us is always with the kids. I know that is more than you asked but because of all that is why we decided to reschedule. We just can't fit as much studying in this semester as we would like. I'm kind of glad we're not the only ones who have had to reschedule.

I originally was planning on retaking on May 30 but I was having trouble fitting my studying with my schedule, so I rescheduled to a later date. How far are you July MCATers in your studying?

 

[odgey27]

Well, since I was planning on taking it in April, I've been studying (semi-seriously) since October. My VR is finally over a 10, but I'm having lots of trouble with PS. Anyone else having trouble w/ Kaplan's FL's?🙄 🙄

 

[odgey27]

Anyone else?😕

Probably me. I'm on for the mid June one, but think (like almost everyone else it seems) that work and class are making July look more promising. Or maybe I'm just being lazy and rationalizing my apathy instead of sucking it up and doing what I need to do. Who knows.

I'm a July MCAter and I haven't started studying at all. I mean I get out of school in May, so that gives me 2 solid months of studying. I'm just going to focus on my classes until then.

I rescheduled, too, but mid-June. I was planning on taking it in May, but my courseload/extracurriculars/PT work hours are heavier than I thought. Is anyone else having a hard time squeezing in MCAT study time (like 3-4 hours a day)?

I've been studying since the fall with Examkrackers off and on. I have about 2 more chapters in each subject to go. I plan to have all foundation review done by April and then go into practice overdrive in May. Hopefully with a stronger foundation and more practice, I'll do better this second time around.


Good luck with the studying!

I am planning to take the July MCAT; I have not registered yet but will soon. Just started studying last night; I am using the EK 4th edition books I have had for years🙄 I am trying to track down the 6th edition now but don't want to wait. I am pretty sure the basic info is the same. Any thoughts about the EK 4th edition. Am I putting myself at a great disadvantage by using them?

i was thinking of putting off the mcat from may 11 to july 13 so i could study more cuz all i am getting right now is 25's and 26's. However would that be considered "late" in the admissions process for someone with a 3.48 overall GPA? is earlier really better for me?

I got 14 bio 9 physical 8 verbal.

What are the chances I even get looked at for a Canadian school, or an American school as a Canadian citizen?

Think I should re-write?
