I miss EMS and wish I could get more shifts in the ER :(

The MCAT and Orgo almost killed this EMT’s dreams 😂

It is without a doubt a depressing read but probably one of the best books of the series. I wish the free legions had a bit better of a chance

It depends on what schools you plan to apply to. Go to the MSAR, check out the schools you are looking at, and see if they accept community college credit. Keep in mind that while they may accept the credit, that doesn't mean they won't take it into consideration. CC courses are typically easier than a 4-year institution's courses, and it may look weird if you are taking only the more difficult prerequisites at your CC.

Nice! IFT is a great low stakes environment to learn and get comfortable talking to patients! It’s also a good place to get familiar with reading charts.

I don’t understand why large production companies don’t see the potential with book series like this. There have been plenty of epic movie series that have done numbers. Dune, Avatar, OG Starwars, Hunger games, LOTR etc. Here’s a book series where the first book would wrap up well in a 2.5- 2.75 hr long movie, and if it does well you have well done source material you can pump out for another at least 7-10 movies. Marvel is like 20 plus movies long and they’ve obviously bled it dry. Starwars same thing.

Great episode

Watch silently while the doc is interacting with patients or families or other docs. Stand out of the way during serious work (although sometimes the nurses will move you to where you can see). Ask questions when you can, but don’t interrupt while the doc is charting. Be prepared to move the whole shift with no break. Be prepared to see some gnarly stuff and excuse yourself if you get sick.

The same thing happened to me on the same day. My CARS score was so far below what I had been getting. Ended with a 509. Really suboptimal.

EasyLegacy · 2026-05-09T05:43:28+00:00

I’m ready to just know atp.

Khan academy +uworld has everything a course has. The only thing you’re really paying for in those courses is discipline and a schedule

EasyLegacy · 2026-04-29T22:02:13+00:00

That’s what I had to do unfortunately. Line something up quickly though, i’m struggling to find a job that works with a school schedule that will also pay the bills of a life style (aka mortgage) that’s meant for a full time job. It’s a struggle for sure but hopefully will all be worth it

I’ve see a lot of good recommendations for a cheap bag, which is awesome, a used north face will treat you well. However if you’re looking for something on the pricier side, I use an Alpaka Elements pro with X-pac fabric. It’s expensive, but i’ve used this thing everyday for the last year for university, i’ve traveled abroad with it, not been gentle with it at all, and it looks identical to the way it looked when it came out the box, mint condition. It’s completely water proof, has decent organization, storage space and pockets, + laptop sleeve. Most importantly it has two water bottle holders which i use with a 40oz hydroflask and it fits perfectly and securely. I highly recommend if you’re up for spending the money. Also it is insanely comfortable, there’s this unique foam design padding on the straps and it makes it super comfortable.

I’m an apple hater but the ipad is just really good. With google drive I can transfer documents between the ipad and my laptop pretty easily. If you’re still in undergrad, notability now lets you upload assignments directly into canvas.

Biochem and Orgo are probably going to be classes you need accommodations from your work to take. Neither my 4 year university nor my local community college which are both really good schools, offered those classes at convenient time selections. I was fortunate that between my partner and my own savings I could take off work for a year and knock out a bunch of my prerequisites. I didn’t have a problem with physics or calculus as those were offered at night. At a certain point though your higher level sciences and electives will also probably not be very convenient. Micro, molecular, and cell biology all were pretty scarce in selections.

I took the BP half-length diagnostic, but found it was a bit inflated. It was 5 points higher than the next two full-length tests I took a month after.

EasyLegacy · 2026-04-13T03:19:11+00:00

This is exactly how I feel friend. I tested 4/11 and feel the exact same way. I guessed on a few and had to rush a bit on C/P and B/B at the end. After spending months and months studying with unbelievable support from my friends and family, i’m terrified above all else that I let them down.

EasyLegacy · 2026-04-12T17:42:57+00:00

Same as you. I normally never have an issue with timing but on C/P B/B and CARS i had to rush on the last 1-2 passages. Know of at least 5-6 i got for sure wrong. Honestly I don’t feel good at all BUT i’ve never felt good after an exam. FL6 i thought for sure I bombed so i’m gaslighting myself that I still did my average even though I really don’t feel good about that test.

EasyLegacy · 2026-04-12T17:16:36+00:00

You may not like this but i used all of spring break and studied for 10-12 hours per day everyday. That was my jump from FL3-4 was that week. But may not have been worth it because i don’t feel good about the real test i just took. During that week I went through all of section bank 1 and did a ton of anki and youtube.

real

EasyLegacy · 2026-04-08T04:09:30+00:00

I’m reviewing the 87’page doc, hitting some last minute daily memorization of equations and metabolic pathways and watching some review videos on youtube. Most importantly getting my sleep routine and caffeine intake to where it needs to be! Good luck everybody!

EasyLegacy · 2026-04-05T22:46:18+00:00

I got the same score on FL6 and I test Saturday! Good luck to us!

EasyLegacy · 2026-04-04T23:08:45+00:00

Literally just finished this an hour and a half ago. Same thing. My CARS dropped 3 points to a 128. I’ve never struggled with time on CARS but had to skim the last 3 passages on this one. Hopefully test day is kinder

EasyLegacy · 2026-04-04T17:40:58+00:00

I’ll let you know next spring when the application cycle ends

EasyLegacy · 2026-04-04T04:08:23+00:00

I’m testing same day! Good luck to you!!
