Hi everyone,
I wanted to pick some brains about when would be a good time to take the MCAT. I am going to be starting my junior year and wanted to concentrate on keeping my grades up rather than worrying about the MCAT. So, my plan of action is to concentrate on knocking out the remainder of my classes successfully, and then take the first half of the year AFTER I graduate to study for the MCAT. Taking them in August of that year. Other than having a lag year before medical school, would there be any other disadvantages to this? especially from an admissions commitee point of view?
Thanks.
