    Before you comment with a question, CHECK THE WRITTEN GUIDE. bit.ly/36clF1x There is a FAQ section where I answer most of your q's. If you still have a lingering question, especially if it's about your personal situation, please dm me on instagram @mayzgao. Thanks for the kind comments, and happy studying :-)

But after seeing someone in my fb premed group recommend it, I decided to watch it tonight. Let me tell you, you are an MCAT angel. This is amazing! I'm not even going to begin studying for the MCAT until January of '22, but this video made me excited to study for the MCAT. Most detailed and useful video I have ever seen. If I had premed friends I would have definitely shared your video with them. Bless you for all of your hard work. You are going places and any med school that gets you is going to be very lucky to have you. Great job on the video and your awesome MCAT score.

    As someone who's tutored the MCAT for a while, I have to say: this is an extremely solid and well-done video! ⭐Only thing I would recommend is maybe 2 weeks for third party and 6 weeks for AAMC-the AAMC problems take a lot longer than you'd think, as you have to factor in review time.

    Oh my, girl you are literally my hero right now. I'm needing to start preparing for the MCAT, but I'm SO overwhelmed because there are countless different websites, so many different materials that claim they're the best, and there's so much to learn and know. As someone who is very scheduled and detail-oriented, I didn't even know where to start when it came to preparing, but this just helped me so so much. I immediately saved the 25 page guide, the Google Slide presentation, and started looking up the materials and resources after I watched your video. You just saved me a lot of time and prevented a lot of stress. Thank you times a million for taking the time to make this! :):)

    thanks so much for this video. due to taking a lot of unnecessary courses in college to “explore”, as my advisor had suggested, i ended up with a lower-than-competitive GPA (of course nowhere even close to flunking out of college) for medical school. I have good extracurriculars, skills, experiences, and good places to ask for strong letters of recommendation so I really think I’ll just need to pump up my MCAT score to give myself a better fighting chance. I have no doubts I’ll get into medical school, nonetheless I’m definitely still worried. I appreciate your video a lot and hopefully I can make good use of the time I have to ace the MCAT when I take it next year. My GPA is too low for my school’s pre-med committee to accept me as a candidate they would approve for medical school so i’m on my own!

    Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants do not have to take physics. However, since we are travelling through space on a rock at 100k km/hr, i want my MD to have taken physics. The body is chemistry, biology and physics and you need math to describe it.
