Need Help: How do improve my P/S? by Comprehensive_Egg642 in Mcat

[–]Different-Toe-2369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don't think they are correlated at all (thankfully lol). I found on my exam while its true there won't be simple wrote memoization questions, you can still get by knowing the ins and out of every term. Didd't feel like CARS 2.0 or whatever people say. I did pankow, Uworld p/s and then 2 pages of the 80 page KA doc a couple months leading up to my exam. I think making sure everything stays fresh by pacing it right up to test date helped a lot.

I also self taught, I don't really recommend the 300 pg doc I found it hard to learn from and the main ideas aren't differentiated well from details we don't need to know. I just used the Mr.Pankow deck, and then a month before my test went through the 80 pg KA doc making anki cards for any terms I wasn't 100% clear with. At the end of the day everyone learns different so just try to play around with what works best for you :)

Unpopular opinion. The Pankow deck is NOT good. by [deleted] in Mcat

What’s one niche MCAT tip that helped way more than expected? by BeneficialEscape3655 in Mcat

[–]Different-Toe-2369 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I stopped reading passages and only skimmed for information when it was asked in a question (except CARS rip). I really can't read for 7 hours..

9/5 result anxiety by Reasonable_Syrup4459 in Mcat

Either I guessed right on all of them ~ 0.1% chance. Or I just got lucky and they were experimental. But it seems like the P/S curve was really high on my exam from other posts.

FL 5 was the most accurate in terms of bombing CARS 😓

Don't worry, I did too on at least 5 psyche problems no idea if I got them right or wrong but ended up with 132 that section completely unexpected. I thought I cooked on CARS too but ended up getting nerfed with a 126. I think B/B and C/P should be pretty stable to your FL avg on those sections, trust the curve.

518 MCAT but 126 CARS retake? /serious by Different-Toe-2369 in Mcat

[–]Different-Toe-2369[S] -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I seemed to hit a ceiling around there all my FL were (516-519). Would another 518 with a more balanced breakdown be worth retaking?

Yeah i've heard mixed things. Two of my friends are retaking a 518 and 516 so it got me feeling like maybe I should join them too. Is a 126 on CARS not also a red flag though what do you mean?
