[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD is premed. The premed requirements (math, statistics, biology with lab, chem with lab, physics with lab, Orgo with lab, English) are brutal. Spent all of her summers during research. I'm not sure how anyone these days could go directly from undergrad to med school without taking a gap year cause it would mean taking the MCATs as a junior! How does any premed find the time to study and take the MCATs which is 7.5 hours long?! In addition to the MCATs, many med schools also require other tests such as the Altus Suite. There are primary and secondary applications, not to mention interviews. [/quote] My DC didn’t find the pre-recs brutal but did agree that taking a gap year made sense. It’s more like half a year extra in terms of when you actually start at med school. [/quote] Maybe not brutal for some, but certainly time-consuming at least compared to most other majors. There are no half-year delays, only full years.[/quote]
