what classes (pre-med reqs) suggested before taking MCAT?

<p>I took Gen Chem freshman, OChem, Genetic and Biochem Sophomore year. Plan to take Physics in the summer...</p>

How do you fit in all of these courses before taking the MCAT? My understanding is that students take the MCAT spring of their junior year. Do you have to overlap bio and chem either freshman or sophomore year and then take physics junior year in order to adequately prepare?

<p>A lot of students take intro bio and gen chem freshman year and physics/orgo sophomore year. It's okay to take two science classes at the same time. That's like 6 hours of science lecture a week. We have 20 hours of science/week in med school.</p>
