I think I messed up...
I decided to take it slow and only take Orgo II this semester since I wanted to keep working. Unfortunately, that will put me behind as far as when I can apply to med school (I still haven't completed any Physics). I know that there is no way to take the MCAT without having these courses under my belt.
My questions are: Should I take the Physics sequence as part of an extension program while currently taking Orgo as part of a postbacc program so that I am able to take the MCAT and apply this year? (This would make me ineligible for a committee letter from the school at which I am a postbacc.) Or, should I suck it up and wait another year? Does it also look "bad" that I am only taking one class? I don't want to wait any longer and fear that I actually may have made a bad decision to take things more slowly.
