Hi, I really need some advice and opinions. I am a new law student that dropped out of school to pursue medicine. I am taking this entire year off to prepare for the April MCAT. I have one problem: I have never taken physics and I was wondering if it was possible to do well on the physcis section if I learn the material on my own.

Has anyone ever taken the MCAT without taking physics and perfomed well on the physical section.

You NEED to have taken physics to apply to medical school, it is a prerequisite.

Sorry, I should have cleared this up. I am a Canadian student trying to gain admission into Canada, Ontario. Physics is not a pre-req. Also, I can't get admitted into any physics course this year so my plan was to take it next summer if i decided to apply to the U.S.

If you can buy the Kaplan and /or Princeton Review study books from a local bookstore or from Amazon.com, you should be able to self learn just what you need for the MCAT. It costs about $70 US. ANd the previous poster was correct, all US schools have 1 year of Physics as a requirement.

Good luck. I hated Physics😡
