Hey guys. I am a college senior (comp sci + music major) who decided to go premed late. This spring I will be taking Bio 2 and Biochem (the last of my prereq classes) and then graduating. I have a couple other classes as well, but I won't have a very heavy academic load overall. Shortly after graduating I'll be starting a job scribing full time for around a year; after this year of scribing I plan to submit my application. I'm thinking it would make the most sense to start studying for the MCAT now over winter break and then take the test right around when biochem and bio 2 are finishing up, around the beginning of May (option A). If I were to go this route, I'd probably end up self studying a good bit of the bio 2 and biochem material so that I could be set to start doing practice tests before my classes were done. I realize this plan is somewhat unorthodox, but I think it beats option B, which would be to wait until I graduate and then do a longer term (9 months?), 2 hr/day-type study plan while I'm scribing. Any thoughts?
