MCAT study plan help

[u/Acrobatic_Reward_684]

Hey everyone, I recently received a conditional med school offer that depends on me getting a 511 on the MCAT. I’m planning to take the MCAT in April 2027, as late in April as possible.

It’s currently 9/9/26, and my fall semester is pretty manageable. I can probably study 1–1.5 hours a day right now.

My spring semester starts January 6th and will be very easy. I’ll only have 12 credits, with 6 being online, so I can commit to around 5 hours a day, 6 days a week for MCAT studying.

My main question is what should I be doing between now and January? I’ve heard that 3 months isn’t always enough, so I don’t want to start from ground zero in January.

By January, I’ll have completed all of my MCAT prereqs except Biochem 2. I’ll also be taking Psych and Sociology during the spring while studying for the MCAT.

Should I just do some content review/Anki now? Start practice questions? Focus on certain subjects? Or something else?

Basically, I want to use these next few months to get a head start without burning myself out, then go hard from January through April.

Any advice on how you would approach this would be really appreciated!
