cheesecake19 Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Hello all! I'm currently self-studying for my test date in late August. I was wondering how everyone else is studying for their MCATs. I have a very bad habit of obsessing over my notes and trying to make them perfect- as a result my studying ends up being over complicated and entirely too time consuming. I spend more time tidying up my notes and making sure I get every detail rather than actually retaining any information. As such, I decided to make index cards for the MCAT, because that way I only have a limited space for each term/theory/formula and am forced to strip info down to the nitty gritty. I also make up question cards as I go along, then write the answer on the other side so that I engage in active studying when I go through my deck again. A few weeks into studying and I'm nearing 200 cards...lol. I thought it would be nice to share the study techniques that we use, and learn from each other! Hope everyone's studying is going smoothly. Also if anyone missed it in the other thread, I've made an fb group for MCAT study partners in Toronto.
