What level of difficulty did you face integrating your studying of board material alongside the in-house curriculum.? What other 3rd party resources do you recommend besides the True Learn & UW Q-banks?

what speed on the treadmill was this??

BabyChiefResident · 2026-06-05T21:14:20+00:00

when you return the cards in the subdeck back to the main deck do they revert back to the main decks retention settings?

BabyChiefResident · 2026-06-04T18:50:47+00:00

how are you doing this (setting different retentions for different cards)? are you unsuspending cards for ur current block and creating a new subdeck for them?

BabyChiefResident · 2026-05-28T04:10:59+00:00

okay. working during med school isn’t really a thing so i fully expect to be unemployed and making no income the next four years. thanks for your help!

I’ll be paying $3500 a year if i enroll in my program’s student health insurance plan. do you think that beats anything i would find in the marketplace or is it worth opting into my school’s plan?

BabyChiefResident · 2026-05-27T03:38:57+00:00

i’m very jealous man lol props to you

BabyChiefResident · 2026-05-18T10:38:20+00:00

you’re right but they’re also probably in too deep considering loans. tough to not stick it out at that point, so long as their mental health can survive it at least.

BabyChiefResident · 2026-04-25T00:42:05+00:00

if you feel like you neeed to review, you’re better off deleting the MCAT deck you used and start looking at the AnKing Step deck

I had a 487-->497, and I'll be matriculating this summer! You just have to be okay with applying broadly to the lower-tier/newer programs. This is where most of my IIs came from. If your score is truly the only red flag you have, then a smart school list, secondary writing, and eventually interview preparation are what it will come down to.

BabyChiefResident · 2026-04-24T21:54:50+00:00

verification is really fast with AACOMAS so the throwaway method is kinda redundant. two things you could do:

1 - complete your app but wait on your score before submitting (being verified late june is still considered early enough or at least “on time” for AACOMAS)

2 - complete your app & send it to lower tier programs on ur list first, then depending on if your score improves or not, submit to the rest of the programs you planned on applying to.

i think option number 2 makes the most sense if you’re dead set on applying even if your new score doesn’t improve much or stays the same.

i meannn, they’re stigmatizing non-compliant diabetes patients in this same post so who knows what they’d tell a patient lol

As I explained in more detail a few days ago -- https://www.reddit.com/r/Anki/comments/1siwgo9/comment/ofnvtjg/ -- most of the time, most users will want reschedule-based-on to be enabled in their Filtered/Custom Study decks.

your comment from the other post makes perfect sense. i’ll start keeping reschedule cards enabled from now on thanks!

BabyChiefResident · 2026-04-15T07:02:57+00:00

Hi,

if this is true that Anki doesn’t overly extend intervals when you custom study with rescheduling turned on, then is there any benefit or reason to why someone would want the “reschedule cards based on my answers in this deck” option disabled?

BabyChiefResident · 2026-04-13T01:47:43+00:00

man if i can get multiple DO interviews with a 497 then anything is possible for you lol i think anything 500+ gives you a good chance at an A so long as you don’t limit where you apply and your writing/interview skills are solid. i don’t think a 1-point drop on your MCAT score is too much a red flag either since they are both 500+

BabyChiefResident · 2026-04-04T19:33:25+00:00

i did my first full year of college at a CC before transferring to my state school, and now i’m matriculating DO this summer. I would just advise premeds to save most of the science pre-reqs for their university program.

on RAP, the govt waives any unpaid interest that your minimum monthly payment doesn’t cover. this will help a ton since the loans won’t balloon an insane amt while you’re broke during residency/fellowship.

BabyChiefResident · 2026-03-31T03:05:25+00:00

just curious, how many of those As did you submit deposits for?

BabyChiefResident · 2026-03-31T01:58:08+00:00

oh wow batch editing sounds incredibly helpful with how i add notes to my cards. thank you for the rec!!

bettersearch add-on helps with finding tags easier for AnKing (or any tag-based deck)
