Hey guys, I'm planning on registering for the MCAT soon but want to be 100% sure that I'm scheduling myself appropriately. My plan is to apply as soon as AMCAS opens up, so I would ideally want my scores before June 1st. The latest MCAT date that would allow me to do this would be April 13th...

Hi all! I'm looking to apply to medical school in the 2019 cycle. I was initially looking at taking the MCAT June 15 or June 28, but my scores would become available in mid- to late July, and based on what I've been reading, that's late. I know that I can submit my primary application without an...

Hi! Happy holidays to you all! Sorry to bother with a typical pre-med question, but I would reallllly appreciate some wisdom from people who know a lot more than I do. Right now, I just finished semester 1 of sophomore year and I have mainly good grades except 2 blemishes on my record. Over...

I'm planning on studying from January up until the June 1st MCAT. Scores would be released on July 2nd. I think I want to give myself more time to study but I'm worried about applying too late. Would a July MCAT with an August release date be too late? Is applying in August too late? If my...

Working on having a back up plan B. In order to do this I need to take some science courses. However, my alma Mater institution won’t let me take them because they are “2000” level courses and I’m already deep into my undergrad degree. I want to take them at a local CC but is that OK? I...

When I select answers for the CARS passages, I feel like I'm guessing on almost all my answers. I am only certain of my answer choices a few times throughout the CARS sections. I'm doing decent on the CARS Q-packs and I also did decent on the PR review CARS sections. Its not like im missing a...

I am a pre med college student (Biology major) and so far I only have 1 C on my college transcript from an environmental science class. The class was really hard; I had about a 79.69 in the class but my professor refused to round my grade up to a 'B'. All my other grades have been A's and B's...

Hello everyone. I’m very confused on how to to use TBR books properly. I’m using them to study for Chem and Physics. Lots of their passages have new matieral that i haven’t reviewed and they contain various phases per chapter. How should i approach this? @BerkReviewTeach do you or anyone else...

Hello everyone!! For content review, is it better to use TPR instead of TBR? I have all the TBR books and was told to use them for their passages. What would be a better source of content review? Thank you!

Hello everyone. Would a July MCAT be considered late for MD schools? Also, can someone give me a brief timeline overview for an MD application cycle? Do we need to turn in our MCAT scores and LORs to be verified? Thanks!

Howdy, So my first Princeton review full length I got a 499 (123/123/127/126) and I just took another PR full length today and got a 505 (123/126/127/129). My issue is with chem/phys obviously. How can I improve this score? I have approximately 30 days before I take my official MCAT (Jan 19th)...

So I've always been taught that the formula for torque is T=FcosTheta * R .............however this princeton review practice problem on torque is using the formula T= FSinTheta * R When solving for torque do we always use Sin in the torque formula?? Or is this just a bad question...because...

What I mean by this: Do you use the cGPA you had when applying to schools, or can it be calculated using an updated cGPA, such as after another semester? Another way to look at it: Should you stick to one LizzyM Score, or should you recalculate each time after updating your cGPA, such as after...

I've been following the 100-day MCAT study schedule posted on the SDN website pretty religiously so far, but the part that I've been struggling with (and knew I'd struggle with beforehand) are the days where I need to re-read ALL the chapters from the past week all in one day. I'm personally a...

For those of you that have had interviews, I assume you've had some research experience? What kind of stuff should you be able to directly articulate and elaborate on, to show that your research experience wasn't just sitting around doing nothing? I've been doing research for the better part...
