HOW TO STUDY FOR THE MCAT IN 3 MONTHS<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
\n

Creating your MCAT study guide is one of the most important aspects of\u00a0preparing for the MCAT<\/a>, but it can also be one of the most difficult. Experts recommend that the average pre-med student spend between 300 and 350 hours over several months preparing for the MCAT. Three months might seem like plenty of time to prep, but you\u2019ll still need to set aside many hours of study time each week in order to score competitively on the MCAT.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
