The tips begin at a different place in each module. The advice moves along with the stages of the course.

MCAT preparation can produce role strain and role conflict. Role strain occurs when you have trouble meeting goals you expect from yourself or what others expect of you. Everyone experiences role strain in MCAT preparation. Role conflict occurs when two roles have demands that are mutually exclusive. It may be a heavy course load while preparing for the exam. It may be parental responsibility or a demanding job. It's very important to identify and navigate role conflicts successfully in MCAT review. Keep things in balance!
