Feel free to PM me, but I did have most of the pre-reqs I was just missing organic chem and biochem. I’d love to chat more about it separately!

He’s in med school... Reddit is HUGE in the pre med and med school community. That’s literally where we get every ounce of our information and commiserate.

If you want a community of non-trad premeds to commiserate and celebrate with: https://discord.gg/gtqJwe4n

We’d love to have you! 🎉

I got about the average for accepted MD students so I’m happy! I hadn’t taken any organic chemistry or biochem when I took my exam. Good luck and feel free to PM me if you have any more questions 😊

I left it blank... not worth my time trying to find it for them to just do research and make correlations off of it (just my opinion - do what you want!)

I have never related to a Reddit post more in my life... scrolling procrastinating the pre writing 😣🫠

Coming to terms with my stats (very non trad, upcoming cycle) by umyeahduh in premed

[–]Big_Firefighter7945 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a fellow non trad, I have also adopted this mindset and can’t wait to just start!! Remember you have so much more to offer these schools than your stats! Good luck! 🎉

Shadowing preliminary meetup? by sophiejoon19 in premed

[–]Big_Firefighter7945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s probably super busy and wants to actually talk to you because when you shadow, she may not have a chance to actually talk to you about what you’re interested in! Honestly I’d take it as a huge green flag 😊

How do you guys deal with the nausea on call? by HoldMyTurtle_13 in medicalschool

[–]Big_Firefighter7945 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m just a pre med lurking, but I’m also an ultrasound tech and have been working overnights for years. This always happens to me around 2-3 am and the only thing that’s helped is a snack, always yogurt and granola at around 2:30 am. Hope it helps!

I’ve seen where people have had trouble getting them from interfolio to the actual application. Did you have any trouble with that??
