Hi may

[@milkymoon1345]

question: i might end up taking multiple gap years due to some factors that i cannot control,, it is a highly uncertain situation but im estimating no more than 2 gap years,, i don't want my score to expire if i take it but i also don't want to push off the date too much bc i just recently finished my prereqs,, im scared i might forget the information and that it could make content review more difficult 😅 what would you recommend in terms of the limit of how late i should take the mcat after finishing my prereqs? thank you!

[@minukjeong7647]

Hi there! I am on the same boat. I feel continuous review watching Khan Academy, or KZbin videos regarding the topics. I advise when time seems fit. Flashcards Quizlet, write songs for Anatomy and physiology. Good luck!

I’m planning to take the mcat sept before my junior year. I can either take orgo 1 with physics 2 or orgo 2 and physics 2? Which one should I do/ Is more manageable?

[@MayGao]

Probably orgo 1 with physics 2 would be more manageable-I’d ask people at your uni who’ve taken those classes what they think
