Hi guys,
I am freshman, currently on the pre-med program. I do have a few questions regarding MCAT prep and just any advice/motivation is welcomed.
I know this is a little too early to start full MCAT prep as I wouldn't be actually taking the test until my junior year and also because I haven't even had a chance to attend all the prereq courses yet. But is there anything that I could start doing at this point to prep for the MCAT? I do not want to push it to last minute because my SAT performance was not that great and I do not want to end up in the same situation with the MCAT for obvious reasons. So how can I go about beginning my prep now or what is the best course of action that you suggest?
Also, what is the reason that MCAT retakes are frowned upon? I saw several replies in the forum that strongly advised against retaking the MCAT. Why exactly is that an issue?
Looking forward to gaining some clarity, thank you in advance!
Regards.
