SN2ed without Organic?

[RuralFamilyMed]

I'm currently a second semester sophomore at University in the DMV Area. At this semester's end I'll have completed my one year of General Chemistry, Biology, and Physics. However, I will be taking Organic during my Junior year.

Right now, I am enrolled in a combined program that requires a 26 minimum (with no sub-score less than 7) on the MCAT. Another part of this is that I must take my MCAT before March, 2014, when I will be midway through my second semester of Organic. I am very interested in using the SN2ed study plan, as I find I am better suited to personal discipline when studying for standardized tests.

However, I was wondering if it's okay to use all the SN2ed materials, without Organic. I was thinking I could spend my summer, as well as the fall semester reviewing my Chemistry (as I am weak in that area), Physics, and Biology. And, during Winter break, I could devote a month's time to Organic, and then take the MCAT in the beginning of February.


Does this sound ridiculous? Does it sound sane? I would greatly appreciate any and all opinions. Cheers.

P.S. I mistakenly posted this under Q&A before...sorry!!

You have to be rather strong in the other areas. I did this and got 2 passages of o.chem on the test. Guessing on 10-12 questions certainly didn't help my grade.

I'm currently undertaking the SN2ed schedule while at the tail end of organic 1. I have found some of the material familiar but other chapters I had to skip over and make a note to return to them later on. I think it is doable, if you at least have one finished first and are taking two concurrently. You can always modify the schedule to suit your needs. It sounds like you are forced to do it this way regardless.
