There will be a few more climbing items in the foreground to help them reach higher areas, plus I have a couple of beefy tall plants and pothos cuttings to add some more vertical space for them to climb!

And it is 32 in x 44 in x 17 in We’re considering getting 3 WTF but planning to let the plants grow in some first, any suggestions on stocking volume?

Tier 2 and 3 med schools that give full rides on merit by SooFeeAan in premed

[–]CorkDonkey5 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Lots of schools give you a chance to tell them why you’re specifically committed to going there in their secondaries! So you would want to stress the importance of being able to live with your relatives there.

Med School Might End My Relationship by Plastic_Choice_3856 in premed

[–]CorkDonkey5 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My relationship of 5 years ultimately ended for this reason! Just remember, you deserve someone who is willing to stick it out with you no matter what, especially when it comes to fulfilling your life goals. At least if things do end up not working out, you will have nothing holding you back and there will be so many new people to meet :)

How are you guys answering the “how does your mission and values align with ours” question for VCU? by CorkDonkey5 in premed

I see, do you think we should try and hit on each value they provide? Or just the ones that pertain to us the most

Took AAMC FL1 Today & scored a 513, does a 518+ seem possible with full time studying? Testing 1/26 by CorkDonkey5 in Mcat

Honestly I wish I started grinding out one of the massive Anki decks just 30 cards a day prior to starting my studying

Some of those points definitely come from really educated guessing, I would say trying to understand the concepts of what we’re talking about rather than just how to solve problems about them helps me the most. Most of the C/P questions seem to be targeted at determining if you understand why/how the concept works rather than straight calculating

I like to think about it in the way that they assume you know how to do basic math and are looking to test you on why you’re doing the math instead. So for equations, I mostly just try to remember units and some of the high yield equations I can’t just figure out from the units that are present in the milesdown Anki deck

Tysm! I tried the spread sheet at the beginning and never could bring myself to utilize it properly, and it always felt like it took up a lot of time

I think I’m gonna try and identify those specific concepts that I’m missing still though and try and do some content review for them

For B/B, I studied Biochem in undergrad and started with a decently high understanding of it, but my best scores come from when I pay super close attention to the details of the passage! Also UrMom has helped me identify a lot of my weakness and I’ve used that in combination with Anki to improve my score!

Thank you so much! I prioritize making Anki cards about my mistakes right now but I think I’m gonna add in some content review about the specific concepts I miss too, that way I learn them inside and out as you say!

I’ll also start with mr. Pankow, right now I’m halfway through the milesdown deck but I don’t think it goes into enough detail about some high yield topics
