MCAT Poll

I checked the MCAT forum, but didn’t see exactly what I’m looking for. I’d love to have as many of you as possible answer:

  1. Your score

  2. How many months before did you begin


    Studying?

  3. Prep course? (if so, which one?)

  4. How many hours a week did you study?

  5. CC/4 year/ post Bacc?


    I think it would be very helpful!


    Thanks, Dan

I’m not taking it until Jan 29th so I’ll let you know how I do when scores come back.

This would be a great thing to sticky. For those of us who haven’t taken the MCAT yet, it’s extremely helpful information.

    I’m taking the MCAT again, this May


    http://alleluia2.blogspot.com/

Score: 31


Months of study: about 3 days dedicated to MCAT


Prep course? none


How many hours a week did you study: see above


CC/4 year/ post Bacc: post-bacc


Note - I did all of the pre-reqs (except for the last quarter of physics) in 9 months before taking the test. I started school in September, took the MCAT the following August. So, one could argue that my entire 9 months was one giant MCAT prep.
