I'm studying for the MCAT now and applying to medical schools this summer. I'm pretty nervous and feel like I have no idea what I'm doing or how the whole process works, so if anyone has any advice about ANYTHING....

I was told by the med school admission's dean that you should read the "top matter" to JAMA and NEJM for the last 3 years. You should know current events from your newspaper--especially the government health issues, i.e. insurance, new drugs, better treatment options. And if you have not done experiences in a hospital or similar, you need to do them, ASAP. So, when you do get an interview, you have a discussion.
