Hello All,
I am 52 days out from my MCAT (May 24th test date) and am looking for some advice as to the most effective study schedule. I will have ~10hrs available each day to dedicate towards studying. The resources I am using are: Kaplan books, U-world, 6 next step practice exams, AAMC q-pack/SB/FLs, Khan Academy Behav. Science review, and anki.
Below is my tentative schedule (counting down until test date); any advice on how to improve it would be greatly appreciated! I plan to spend about 1-3hrs on anki every morning and am primarily concerned with giving myself enough time to complete & review all Uworld and AAMC materials. I am thinking of decreasing the # of practice tests as well to give myself more time for review.
Let me know what you think! Thank you in advance!
