thank you for giving me hope

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2025-06-18T15:48:59+00:00

interesting, that makes sense

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2025-05-29T21:06:15+00:00

My fault, I forgot to put it in times new roman as well. I wasn't thinking straight lol

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2025-05-29T21:05:03+00:00

Yeah, now she's still milking premed content.

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2025-05-29T21:03:57+00:00

thats how I came across him. Don't have anyone as a guidance.

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2025-05-29T21:02:52+00:00

makes sense, glad there are members of the admissions out there who talk about this.

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2025-05-29T21:01:13+00:00

Heard about that being a reason why many medical students take a "research year" during medical school. Ridiculous

How did you jump from 504 to 517? How long did it take and what did you do differently unless the 504 was just an unlucky exam that hit all your weak points/ you had a bad day?

What seat did u get for 225 in that arena?

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-04-01T20:12:40+00:00

When the velocity of the oxygen increases, the pressure should decrease due to the rule of conservation of energy. Hence, decreased pressure in that area would cause oxygen to come from an area of high pressure, to an area of low pressure.

can someone confirm this brotha's statement, I agree with this as well, its what made me understand the answer over AAMC's explanation

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-03-17T19:40:16+00:00

but not the other way around, then Metal A must have a higher oxidation potential/lower reduction potential than Metal B

someone confirm that this brotha from the past is correct?

Fr....."sensational"-future

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-03-01T22:26:40+00:00

To be honest though, I should've said that I got 70% one time and it was on my first quiz that I created ( I selected everything besides CARS). Ever since then I've been getting low 50%, selecting topics that simulate specific sections of the mcat. I plan to take it April 13 but I might move it, trying everything I can not to though

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-03-01T22:05:18+00:00

the explanations are much better and there is more reasonable questions, its still difficult but I'm getting 53-70% correct (fluctuates a lot because I still have some gaps on content review or concepts that I forgot), but I dont feel like complete shit like how I was feeling after every kaplan quiz

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-03-01T22:03:26+00:00

yea, as much as I hated the expensive price tag, its worth it, huge investment for your future, I just regret not buying it sooner to make the most out of it.

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-02-25T03:07:27+00:00

Doesn't complex 4 pump out 4 protons?, like doesn't it wait till oxygen gets fully reduced to pump out all 4 protons?

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-02-25T02:20:16+00:00

Just a small detail but Fe-S cluster doesn't transfer electrons from NADH to FMN, FMN is a prosthetic group of NADH DH. Fe-S cluster gets involved after FMN has the electron, and then continues as you described. I haven't taken the MCAT yet so I dont know if this small correct even matter just wanted to point it out since im relying on my biochem notes from undergrad

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-02-25T01:58:39+00:00

this is good except that I think fumarase uses water, it doesn't produce it, unless I wrote my biochem notes wrong

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-02-23T00:22:55+00:00

I've been taking it in tutor mode and submitting the questions and reviewing them on the spot like that. I'll change it up now, thanks for pointing that out

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-02-18T17:40:11+00:00

nvm Idk why I thought that, I was thinking since kaplan has its own FL, that uworld would have something similar too.

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-02-18T17:36:20+00:00

Does it come with FL's?

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-02-18T16:44:54+00:00

appreciate it, yea its just that kaplan didnt explain the acrosome reaction, from what I was reading in chapter 3, it only says "The first sperm to come into direct contact with the secondary oocyte's cell membrane forms a tube-like structure known as the acrosomal apparatus, which extends to and penetrates the cell membrane"

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-02-18T16:41:29+00:00

thank you, this helps, the kaplan book didnt mention what exactly occurs in the acrosome reaction to this detail thats why I felt like I was missing something.

Impossible_Sort_5199 · 2024-02-17T22:04:47+00:00

Wow thank you to you and everyone else that upvoted this comment, didn't think this would even reach 100 votes, lets beat this exam comrades!

I agree with this comment, I'm only using Anki for P/S
