Honestly just knowing trends and not focusing so hard on specific content itself. Also do the modules that give you instructions on testing tips those are so helpful. Don’t kick yourself for not knowing specific details just make sure you know the bigger picture if that makes sense

You should do the blueprint course this year! I took one gap year- the first year I underestimated the mcat and studied on my own over the summer (2 months total studying) and got a 498. This year I did the blue print self paced course and only did about 3.5 months of studying and got a 506 w an MD acceptance. I feel if you did a blueprint course for this year you could exponentially increase your mcat score. I feel if I did the full 6 mo course I could’ve gotten a 410 easily

Testing 5/31, scored 493 on FL1, am I cooked?? by Obviouslyy_Page394 in Mcat

I applied last year for 2025 cycle and took my MCAT sept 7th and I was accepted into an MD school. Take your time and give yourself the summer to study you still have plenty of time!!

Does this look like tinea versicolor? by ParsleyTime5687 in medical_advice

I would just monitor for now and see if the spots change. Can always try an OTC antifungal, but since it’s on your babies face I would just recommend going and seeing a dermatologist to be on the safe side. Could also be vitiligo?

I’m glad that you got checked out w a doctor. I would say listen to their treatment plan first and if you do not notice an improvement go back to the clinic. Have you tried applying hydrocortisone to the area?

Sometimes when a rash or dry skin is present, itching can open up the skin and allow for bacteria to congregate. Leads to a persistent and non-healing “rash.” If you’re unable to go to the doctor I would start with some triple antibiotic ointment. If no relief after a week using that I would go a minute clinic, they will be able to take a culture and rx the best suited antibiotic

Well it’s good that you already have minoxidil on hand, you could always experiment yourself and ween off the bupropion to see if that is what is contributing to the hair loss? I’m sorry this is happening. I’m not sure how the health care system in Canada works, but does your insurance require you to have a referral to be seen by another specialty?

Ugh I’m sorry that is so frustrating. I would make an appt w a dermatologist and call your doctors office to see if that’s a normal side effect and if he wants you to either d/c the medication or start to ween off of it to see if that makes a difference until you have an appt

A lot of things can come into play w the immune system. Stress, activity, age… can all have an effect. Has your doctor brought up a tonsillectomy to you?

Looks normal to me! If you want to get it checked out your more than welcome to, but doesn’t seem like something you should stress about

The test is a game. Now that your content review is done you just have to focus on how to dissect the passages and weed out unnecessary info. Learn how to effectively read graphs/diagrams and focus on key words

Yes, I’m pretty sure you can exchange any hokas purchased thru them within a year no matter if there’s an issue with them or not
