What is your take on using AP and IB credit to not have to take certain classes? I understand that many med schools do not accept AP IB credit unless you take a higher level course of that subject. However, I am just confused on how that really works. If I were to use my IB Bio HL credit to opt out of Gen Bio 1 and Lab would that hurt me? How helpful/impactful is it to take some of the higher level courses like perhaps taking Molecular Bio freshman yr instead of Gen bio 1 in terms of actually having time and enough content learned when studying for MCAT? I hope this made sense... :)
Great video, Noor! You’re awesome!
Amazing tips! Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Those are some intimidating numbers.
I felt this video as if it was me 😂😂😂 and I’m only year 1 in undergrad 🤦♀️

I've never used flashcards in my life to study for something because I love handwritten notes, but now that I'm prepping for the mcat I'm trying to learn how to make and use them effectively. It's a scary mcat world out there but you just made my life so much simpler. Thank you!!

You mentioned a Canadian program while leaving out Ohio University's 3 year D.O. program. You are a well known company in the medical field and this is exactly how we continue to perpetuate the bias against osteopathic programs. Please, do better next time.
Thanks for your feedback!
Feeling so inspired and positive after this video, thanks!
We're so glad! You can do it!
does withdrawing from a course affect my application?
Yes and no. If you are going to fail your course D F it’s better to withdraw from your course and take the W. They see it knowing you are gonna get a bad score but admit and realize you need to figure out a different approach to the course. If it’s a required course take it when you’re ready. A few withdraws aren’t going to hurt but if you keep withdrawing every semester and have like 5+ they are gonna start asking questions and most likely don’t think you can handle your commitments. Don’t take on a bunch of difficult courses in a semester that will cause to to withdraw space them out.
@@emmett-if1oh thank you!!
My question will seem a bit weird but I just want to get a hang of these things. Are freshman and sophomore year are your pre-med years ? If so,is junior year the first year in med school? I just need some clarity on these things Thanks.
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.
Hello christye Will you tell me how many subjects or syllabus are there in MD course
What was the best studying method for you, just wondering

Hey nice to see someone from Nebraska! Currently in the military and considering a career in medicine.
omg did u apply
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

Although I am still a freshman in college I am already watching these MCAT videos to prepare myself when the exam time comes
That's great! Remember to focus the majority of your time on your freshman classes/prerequisites. Those classes will build your MCAT foundation.
I’m two years ahead, meaning I graduated high school with my associates degree. I’ve heard a large diversity of responses pertaining to my age helping and hurting me when applying to medical school. Any advice?
Hello! Honestly, out of everything med schools will consider in your application, your age is going to be the LEAST important...by a large factor. MCAT score, GPA, letters of rec, etc. are all way more important than whether you're a few years younger (or older) than everyone else. The one thing that might "hurt" you is your lack of extracurriculars/other experiences outside of the classroom, simply because you might not have had as much time to do other stuff. However, if you have volunteering, clinical, and/or other necessary extracurriculars, you'll be fine! Lastly, while it's true that the average age of med school matriculants has been going up, that's because gap years are becoming more common and students are applying/starting med school later. Plus, applications are more competitive than ever (average score has been steadily going up every year) so more people are applying multiple times and taking longer to get accepted. Tldr; don't stress about it! You've got plenty of time and being ahead of the curve is never a bad thing. Just make sure you're diversifying your life experiences and doing more than just acing your classes! Good luck!
@@NextStepTestPrep any suggestions on good extracurriculars that might look good? I work 2 jobs as of right now, and am working to get into a hospital for the experience. I work with MRDD clients at a group home for one, and the other I just work at krogers.
This was great! it helped me a lot see where I am along this road.
Awesome! Glad we could help!
i paid for the online course already, how do i access sketchy

Took some great notes, thank you
Glad it was helpful!
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.
When will you post the next video for the junior year in pre med education? I'm really excited to attend university soon even though I'm still a junior in high school. Also, as I am still in high school, I am taking the WVU Biology 101 and 103 (lecture and lab) class... Do you think it would be helpful for my freshman year in pre med because its is already counted as a credit before I attend college? (Its counted as a general pre med requirement like you stated in the first video posted in this series)
Yup! Here it is! kzread.info/dash/bejne/o3tk0pmmgruWqps.html
excellent advice! wonder if you’ll continue this series for junior and senior years
Oh we are! Be on the lookout for the Jr and Sr videos soon!
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!
can i ask if you ended up taking it your freshman year and how it went?
Wow u took advantage of the system at a young age.. nice
This was so educational. I've been trying to search for an informative video like yours that really teaches everything in this KZread video! 🥼Your lesson is similar to the vids of Dr. Ethan. Doctor's videos are useful and I actually learned a lot for wellness. He is the most informative health enthusiast in the UK and he teaches vaccines and vaccines. I suggest you see his KZread out and give the health enthusiast a like over here! ➡️ #DoctorEthanQuestions
We're so glad you found the information useful!
Such helpful info!!
Glad you thought so!
Going to share with my HS Seniors in our Senior Seminar class
That's a great idea!
Amazing, thank you!
first!
