I hear ppl on sdn talk about how they study for the mcat about 3-4hrs/day several months before the mcat. How do you guys manage that(especially may mcat test-takers) , on top the regular schoolwork? school itself is so time consuming, it seems! HOW DO YOU DO IT ?? 😕

Are you efficient in studying? What is your normal schedule?
In class for 3-4 hours?

Well, im a fulltime student, and im in school from 9am-5pm. I get about 4hrs in between classes.

Use that time. You might have to do some studying after 5 pm for your regular classes or MCAT.

thats why I took the August mcat before my junior year. I honestly wouldnt have done as well if I had to worry about school and the mcat at the same time. However, I had a fulltime research job at the time so I still had to sacrifice much free time to study. Its the price you must pay to do well.

It is important to have a routine where you will have a set amount of time set aside the same days of the week to hit the books.
