Any doctor or med student around here?

You and your people medicine don't you know vet school is where its at! ha

Med student here, in my first year.  Yeah it was hard but not too bad, be sure to start studying early for it and you'll be fine

I was a biology major and a chemistry minor.  I did not study specifically for the test.  Good luck.  Go in well rested.

I took the MCAT back in '99.  I prepped all summer.  I did really well on the bio portion, decent on the physical sciences, and poor on the english (me is an engineer).  After I was done, I felt like my brain had been raped. 

I never did, but my husband took the MCAT 10 years ago. Here are some thoughts from him:

First, you should know it is like any other standardized test. In other words, how you perform on other standardized tests will be a good prediction of how you will do on the MCAT. I did one of the prep courses (I think it was Kaplan) and ended up with a 35 (12, 12, 11). I was accepted to my first choice of medical schools with this score. I think the benefit of the prep was to eliminate any errors one might make based on confusion/difficulty with the format, rather than the actual knowledge.

I hope this is of help. Good luck!
