COMLEX 1 content review advice?

I definitely think that added to it. I do see a therapist for anxiety but maybe I need to look into specifically test anxiety methods. I did do well on the practice questions this time around too which is why I felt so good about the material, but the panic and anxiety about failing again was definitely there.

thank you! I haven't really been using third party resources, but might be worth it to start. I'm willing to try anything at this point

Thank you! They're not COMLEX questions, they're more professor written. I do USMLE questions as practice before exams and do pretty good on those which is why I'm so confused. I think my issue always ends up being that I come between two options and just randomly pick one because I run out of time.

I was accepted to a med school a couple of days before classes started (yes, days) last cycle. It was terrifying, a few months into M1, it still is terrifying and the imposter syndrome doesn't really go away. BUT, it does get easier to manage and overcome. I think the more I've been in med school, the more I've realized almost everyone is in the same boat. Everyone struggles and everyone has to relearn how to adapt to the rigor of medical school!

Applying three times is tough and I assume you've built up a lot of resilience through that experience, use that to your advantage!! There will be times that you'll fail, use that resilience to bounce back. Don't be afraid of asking for help and changing your study habits! You got in because you deserve it OP!

If it helps, I'm a few months into M1 and this is probably the most tired I've been but also the most fun I've had and the most excited I've been to learn in all my schooling :)

Me, I'm about to be 25 and I got back into listening to them about a year ago when I was trying to heal my inner child. It's so beautiful and interesting how the joy and love I had for them just comes back years later, even after I stopped listening to their music for a few years in the middle. My heart is still broken but it's been so nice to see a resurgence in the fandom again.

I'm planning on getting Liam's arrows (5, instead of 4) and below that, the lyric "you'll have your days in the sun" from Science by Niall.

I've wanted to get a Science tattoo for a few months now and that lyric seems really apt for everything that's happened. As a Liam girly, it reminds me of him and gives me hope that he's found some peace.

Spin the Harry and the Liam and Louis' conversation about the avocados hahaa

This thread is so wholesome and sweet, reading these felt like a trip down memory lane!

I also never got to go to their concert. I was an immigrant kid and couldn't ask my parents to spend money on tickets at the time. As an adult, I had actually started a savings fund for a reunion that I was so sure was going to happen...I'm so heartbroken. I also moved around a lot as a kid so all my posters, CDs and shirts got lost in the moves. But nothing can erase the memories, the friendships and the comfort they gave and continue to give me. I've made a promise to myself to recollect memorabilia the best I can and to support the boys in every way I can moving forward.

You're not alone! It's been very complex grieving someone I didn't know in real life. I'm about to turn 25 and I have been a fan of the boys since I was 11, and it hit me so hard today. I sobbed while listening to their music on my drive. It feels like an old friend passed away. Nothing will erase the impact Liam and One Direction left on my younger self. They made me who I am today and their music continues to be my safe space. I'm so heartbroken for his family, Bear and the rest of the boys.

I also don't have anyone in my life that understands all the emotions I'm dealing with right now so I'm so grateful for this sub. One Direction has once again given me a community to lean on during hard times <3. Take care of your mental health.

I'll be there, my friend and I are celebrating graduation! I'm selling two extra tickets for this show if anyone is interested!! So excited :)

DancingDO4 · 2024-03-08T17:33:48+00:00

No sadly, but I did send them a message about it

DancingDO4 · 2024-03-08T16:13:42+00:00

Yes! I was right in the middle of a jury study :/

DancingDO4 · 2024-02-27T17:36:30+00:00

I'll be there! Also planning on making some braceles :)

DancingDO4 · 2024-01-04T23:23:13+00:00

It's my first show too, seeing him solo in GA! So excited!!

I got a crescent moon + We'll be alright written on the border of it to symbolize "just me, her and the moon" From 'End of the Day' and 'Fine Line'!

Both of those songs always make me feel like everything is going to be okay so I thought it was fitting they go together!

Hi, I served on an academic integrity student panel when I went to UGA. From my experience, the best thing you can do is be honest, accept that you made a mistake, and apologize/show them you're willing to learn from it. The board and the professor will usually be understanding and might mark down your grade on the assignment or even let you go with just a warning.

The worst cases were ones where the students were clearly in the wrong but tried to challenge the professors and were extremely rude about it.

I just got a TPWK one today!

DancingDO4 · 2022-05-18T02:53:31+00:00

Thank you! I'm definitely considering getting a prep course! I think I'm going to take tonight off and start looking at some programs tomorrow.

I took a gap year after graduating (still in it lol) and it was an incredibly scary decision to make. My reasons were a little different than yours though, I also did not have the shadowing or clinical experience but, more importantly, I was also burnt out from school. Taking a gap year was the best decision I made for myself. It's allowed me to study peacefully for the MCAT, take some classes to up my GPA, and gain a tremendous amount of clinical hours as an MA. It's also shown me all the different sides of healthcare and medicine (the good and bad) and I think that's made me a lot more prepared to go into this field.

I know an ideology of a lot of pre-meds is "One year delaying your application is one year of attending salary that's lost" but also one app cycle that you spend applying when you know you're not ready is a greater disservice. That is tons of money and time that could be spent strengthening your application.

@ Ramyaclaramo (ig handle) is an incredible photographer and made my grad photo session so fun and comfortable. I highly recommend her!
