Besides going through these questions and suggested threads, everybody with questions should read through the sticked "MCATs", "Good Pre-Med Schools" and "General premed advice" threads (I've even linked to those as answers for some of these questions). I went through a ton of pages in this forum and came up with a list of frequently asked questions (FAQs), as well as a few less frequent yet interesting questions, and threads/websites that the more experienced members here often answered them with. That said, here are a few questions that have been asked frequently and links that answer them.
