I could not, however, draw most amino acids successfully if given the name. Study Materials: TPR Sample Test, Newest Kaplan 7-Book Set with online resources, AAMC Section Bank, AAMC Sample Test, AAMC FL1 and FL2, Khan Academy.īefore TPR: Before I took the TPR, I had memorized the Amino Acids including their category (polar, nonpolar, positively charged, etc), three letter, single letter codes and I could look at an amino acid structure and name the amino acid. I felt as though I was at a major disadvantage in terms of courses compared to other students, but I still pulled off a 521 somehow. Never took Sociology, Orgo, Biochem, etc. I took AP Chemistry in high school and tested out, so I never took that in college. I didn’t decide to do medical school until last year, so I only had introductory microbiology, physics, and psychology under my belt before taking the MCAT. I’ve gotten a lot of questions about my study plan, so here it is.īackground about me: I’m a non-science major, traditional student at a Big 10 university.
I went from a sample TPR FL 500 to a 521 on the actual MCAT in 6 weeks. AAMC section bank, sample test, and FL1 and FL2.He wants to remind everyone that time spent not studying MCAT is time wasted. He also attributes success to carb loading the night before, and not eating lunch at all. He only used section banks to study, not to test his knowledge. He thought Kaplan was too in depth, but appreciated it, and found skimming material before bed to be more helpful than flashcards. Studied many, many hours for 6 weeks leading up to the exam. Non-science, traditional student at Big 10 university who only had introductory microbio, physics, and psych before taking the MCAT. Hey, do you need help with your MCAT studying?
