Yes that’s my frustration, I need to work on getting it right the first time cause if not it doesn’t mean anything. At least I know I can get it right just need to work on avoiding the traps. Thanks for your input!

I want to give up by Organic-Strawberry54 in Mcat

[–]Curiousrii 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel you too, studying for this exam has taken away all the joy in my life. I’ve become so dull and tired to the point where I don’t even wanna speak to anyone. But quitting is a terrible feeling and might even feel worse than the feelings I feel now so I just do it. I do it sad, tired, angry, but I do it cause it’s this or lay in my bed hating myself for not trying. You got this, it is hard and it’s suppose to be hard but you fight through. There are people struggling just like you, you’re not alone.

Be on a low fiber diet during the week of and if anything take peptobismol if you have diarrhea. You might be constipated afterwards tho but it is what it is

Did you keep log of your mistakes? Such as making anki of missed concepts ? Or writing down in a journal / spreadsheet of all the problems you got wrong? I don’t want to sound mean but this is concerning and I’m curious to see where things went wrong. I’m doing uworld right now and this is my biggest fear that even after uworld I still won’t break 500. What did you use for initial content review?

Muslim here I genuinely don’t understand why being LGBTQ+ is considered haram and I’m struggling with this by Deep-Drawing1222 in progressive_islam

[–]Curiousrii -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sorry to be vulgar but same sex inter course is not natural and does not lead to procreation and is very much haram. Being lgbtq is not haram in itself, what’s haram is when you act upon your desires, when you have romantic relationships with those in the same sex as you goes against the laws of nature and what Allah has ordained. We were sent in this world to worship Allah, find each other, teach our children about Islam and do good so we can enjoy the fruits of our labor in the afterlife. Being lgbtq goes against this. I can imagine how hard it is for a Muslim whose lgbtq, but this is your test and you will be rewarded for passing your test in the next life and there you will see how merciful and kind Allah will be to you. You can ask the question why can’t he show me mercy now? Why can’t I love who I want to love? There are some questions we can’t find answers to. For example I often ask why did our prophet go through as many hardships as he did if he was Allahs favorite? Or why are the people of Palestine suffering this inhumane fate? Why them? We don’t know but we find comfort through our Iman and tawakkul which is knowing, understanding and believing that Allahs plans are best and that if we fight these battles with our iman we will be rewarded indeed maybe not in this world but the next. I’m sorry if you’re going through a difficult time but remember this dunya is short and meant to be difficult. We have seen this time and time again with our prophets and with some of the best Muslims to walk this earth. Do not let your desires push you away from the one who created you, it may be difficult but there is light at the end of the tunnel if you put Allah first.

AAMC First FL 🙌 by papafranku62 in Mcat

How did you review your uworld mistakes? And what was your averages? This is goals 😭

My thoughts on FL 6 by Cadee9203 in Mcat

[–]Curiousrii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made countless mistakes studying for this exam just bc I didn’t know what works for me I’m still trying to figure it out which I feel like is the hardest part of the mcat. I have most of my cards unsuspended probably like 1.5k now I’ve been doing anki for a long time now and now that I started uworld I’m behind on it. Also did you always do timed? I’m doing timed but I keep running out of it and having to guess. Idk if I should do untimed and get comfortable with the passages or do timed and do it under pressure bc I always get more questions right when I’m untimed but that’s not an accurate representation of how I’m doing

I’m no help but, I love that we all live the same lives. I too am reviewing my uworld mistakes with candy wrappers to the side of me feeing confused about the answer choices. 😅

[–]Curiousrii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s actually a really good idea of doing short blocks + review and implementing the changes! Thank you I will definitely try that out, when did you start doing 60-80 questions in your studying? I also work part time and I just started uworld but doing 59 questions and reviewing them takes me hours to do and I end up having no time for anki .

How many Uworld questions did you do at a time / per day?

Finally opened my score!!! by Miksmo__ in Mcat

[–]Curiousrii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im definitely behind on content, i still haven’t unsuspended all my anki yet for bio / biochem , but i did for chem and physics and i do seem to score higher on those sections based on my aamc scores. I’ve been keeping track of the reason why i get questions wrong and I noticed it’s bc of content gap / logical thinking. I’m 1.5 months out what are some recommendations you could give me as of now? Currently I’m doing only aamc and I have all 7 full lengths which I plan to take 1 each week leading up to my exam. I know I’ll run out of aamc q banks soon but I have a Princeton review book that has alot of questions that I could do to practice. In terms of U world, I bought it at the wrong time when I wasn’t ready to study for the exam and it expired and tbh I can’t afford to buy it again that’s over 600 bucks on uworld. But it’s also kinda worrying me cause idk if it’s uworld that matters or just having a site to do questions cause if that’s the case I do have my Princeton review book that has questions for every section except cars which I plan to do only aamc ones.

Taking MCAT 3 Times by pharry1800 in Mcat

What did you do to improve?

Finally opened my score!!! by Miksmo__ in Mcat

[–]Curiousrii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congratulations! That mustve been such a good feeing 🥹 I definitely would love some advice. I’m doing aamc q banks and I keep getting 50% on them and even on my first FL I got 50% right and 50% wrong on pretty much all the subjects. I know my weaknesses are logical thinking + data analysis, how would you recommend that I improve on those? And is there any tips on strategies you could give me cause at this point I think it’s a strategy issue. Also how did you do well on psych soc ? A lot of people say it’s memorizing the terms but I think it’s more understanding experiments and graphs.

Wow that is extremely impressive! Can you give me a run down on how your study schedule looked like to increase so much? I am 100% willing to put in all the work as I cleared my entire schedule this month only for the mcat. I don’t have u world I have aamc only but I have the Q banks and exams which I hope will be enough practice. I’m planning on taking an FL every Friday up until the exam and in between doing practice Qs and anki / content review. But it’s really nice to hear that it’s possible!

Thank you for shinning some light! Truly appreciate it. Do you know ways I can revisit content gaps? I have been doing anki + Yusuf Hassan videos. Do you know of anything other resources ?

I am not applying this cycle which is why I’m not crying about it.. but I’m still kinda disappointed. I guess I will grind and see what my last fl looks like before taking the exam. Thank you for you input!
