Hello.
I am about to enter my second semester of my Jr. year. Because of a late decision to pursue medical school, I will be taking Physics 1 next semester (instead of having it early in undergrad). I have intentions to apply to med. schools for Fall 2008 matriculation.
Here is my problem:
I know it would be the best if I had Physics 1 AND 2 for the MCAT...but if I take Physics 2 this summer (July) I won't be able to take the MCAT until the end of Aug. and submit primaries late in Sept./early Oct.
If it were you, would you try to take the MCAT without Physics 2 (with intentions to try to get as much info out of the study books about it as possible) so that you could take it in April or May and get your primaries in by June?
OR
Would you take Physics 2 in July and take the MCAT in Aug, and hopefully have your primaries in by the end of Sept.?
I'm worried about this, since I am under the impression that it is a disadvantage to submit primaries so late.
(I will have all other essential MCAT classes done by the end of next semester, Physics 2 is the only one.)
Thanks!
