When did you write/when are you planning on writing?

Just curious. I weighed out my options and wrote August 26th of last year, between my 2nd and 3rd year of undergrad. My reasoning was that I just finished taking courses in school that covered almost all the material on the test (2 bio, 2 chem 1st year) (2 organic, biochem, genetics, 2 physics second year) and I felt that generally the longer I waited, the more information I'm likely to forget. The feeling is glorious however when you get to the 3rd/4th year summer and all your premed buddies are dreading it, haha

Best to take it then. I'm pissed because it's boring. I would have taken it after second year but I'm in coop. Now I'm unemployed, so ample time to write it.

Writing after second year is smartest. First year, your marks will expire and you won't have organic. Second you'll have to write again in 3 years, hopefully you would have made it by then. But strategically second is best. That is of course if your'e lucky enough to have a free summer.

After I graduated...a year later in the spring.

This should have been a multiple choice poll--in order to reflect people whom took the MCAT than once.
