When I was a college freshman, first semester, professors said books and attendance weren’t required and I didn’t attend class and buy textbooks and failed my first tests and by the end of the first semester I knew how to study but I was a mess in the beginning. There’s no homework. It’s lectures, labs, quizzes, tests, papers, and speeches. I was used to using homework to study and get good grades.
Hey question regarding the math pre-reqs that you need to fulfill, is it okay that I carry out courses such as a pre-calc course for one semester and stats for the other to meet the requirements in general, or do I have to focus on more rigorous courses considering I have no background with math in grade 11 and 12(as an international student)
Hi there! The MCAT doesn't allow calculators so there won't be any derivatives / limits needed. It's all mental math, algebra, and some logarithms. If you can master those, you'll be fine with pre-calc and stats.
Love this video!I have a question about the MCAT, As a high school student I plan on graduating high school with my associates degree, meaning I would only have 2 more years of university. Since its best to take the MCAT Junior year then get results senior year, Would this mean I wold have to take the MCAT my freshmen year?
It's possible! You should at least make sure you have completed the prerequisites (intro level courses in gen chem, organic chem, physics, psychology, etc) before testing. If you are planning to apply to medical school your second year, then yes, you will probably want to take it you first year. Hope this helps!
Just like the previous comment said, there's no such thing as the "best" premed major. Some majors provide a solid foundation for concepts you'll see on the MCAT (i.e. Biology, Chemistry, Psychology, Engineering, etc). Still, ultimately, the best major for a pre-med student is one you are passionate about and can excel in.

Hi, I’m going into college in a month for pre-med! What would you recommend I take my freshman year?
You should speak to your college counsellor for that
first!
