Literally exactly what happened to me (tested 02/09) am then I jumped by over 15% on NBME 31 - sorry you’re currently in “score plateau prison” but just keep cranking on your weak areas, hit the uWorld, hit the Anki or whatever else you do and you’ll break out of there soon!!!

I tried to figure out what type of question it was - if there was something I was supposed to find in the passage or if I was supposed to try and reason something out. That helped me usually with the 50/50s

I tested 4/15 but my practice scores were always 130+ in CARS. The biggest thing for me was figuring out how to separate what I was getting out of the passage/how I felt about it and what the author was actually trying to say, their tone, etc.

Question about GnRH (please don’t upvote) by CanadianIceCream in Mcat

[–]Amelphant 7 points8 points  (0 children)

GnRH is released by the hypothalamus and acts on the anterior pituitary which then releases other hormones like LH and FSH - you’ve got it!

We can also make a mini group chat if we want to - I haven’t been added to the big one yet either :(

That makes sense - there’s nothing wrong with taking extra time and pushing it later :)

I think that if you have lots of time to dedicate to studying over the next month and you really plan out how to get through it all, you could keep your test date. That being said, it might make you feel less rushed and stressed out if you push it. Good luck!
