<p>When should I take a physics course in college? I know I should take MCAT once in summer before my junior year and once during second semester junior year. Should i take physics in sophomore year?</p>
<p>Don't take the MCAT until you've taken all the required courses.</p>
<p>Most common pre-med path that I have seen, obviously if you are a bio or chem or biochem or physics major, this is going to be altered:</p>
<p>Semester 1:
Gen Chem
Calc</p>
<p>Semester 2:
Gen Chem 2
Bio 1</p>
<p>Semester 3:
Ochem
(bio 2 a possibility)</p>
<p>Semester 4:
Ochem
(bio 2 a possibility or Genetics)</p>
<p>Semester 5:
Biochem 1
Physics 1
(Genetics?)</p>
<p>Semester 6:
Biochem 2
Physics 2
(Genetics)</p>
<p>You shouldn't plan on taking the MCAT more than once unless you absolutely need to. You probably won't want to take it more than once either. It really sucks.</p>
<p>If your physics course in high school was very strong and you plan on taking a prep course, you don't need to postpone the MCAT for it.</p>
