Medrad science possibly writing MCAT?
I am a first year Medrad science student who might be interested in writing the mcat. Does anyone know if taking chem 1a03, bio 1a03, med rad 1a03, kines 1y03, math 1a03 semester 1 and physics 1b03 kines 1y03 and med rad 1b03/1c03/1d03 semester two is too much of a heavy course load??
Has anyone written the mcat in this program or know anyone who has in this program? Do you think these courses will help in preparation?

I'm studying for the MCAT right now I came from a British school system and the science content in the MCAT is basically like A levels but a bit more advanced. I got credits from my A levels for 1st year sciences so the bio, chem and phys will definitely help no doubt. The math doesn't really matter, it's not a big part of the MCAT, you just need to know basic math that helps with physics questions. But just remember that the way the questions are asked in the MCAT are not like what the tests would be for these courses, it's much much much more application based.

You should buy prep books though with the whole review of what you need to know. I'm using Princeton and EK books so when you buy them, they'll be enough practice for you too!

Hope that helped.
