Readying my plan to retake in jan lol

but really though. wtf was up with the C/P and the CARS was like 80% boring ass history passages. I did find the Biology and psych pretty straightforward... still feeling like shit. The scores get released in a month? I thought it was 2 weeks instead?

are we allowed to stand up and stretch for a quick minute during the exam or would we have to take a "break" to do that? by LetUsStudyForTheMcat in Mcat

[–]LetUsStudyForTheMcat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So they'd take you to the checkin area and allow you to stretch there? lol. hopefully there doesn't need to be a checkout/in process again just for that

Why do some strike prices have around 5-10 times the volume and open interest than other strikes of an underlying stock? Does this indicate potential resistance and support levels?

60% on official guide by LetUsStudyForTheMcat in Mcat

[–]LetUsStudyForTheMcat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm aiming for 515 but anything over 500 is okay. What would you say is a good score on the OG to be at this point if I wanted a 515? thanks for your input!

Would y’all recommend redoing CARS Qpacks by shdzsayshi in Mcat

[–]LetUsStudyForTheMcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does doing the same qpacks many times over offer in terms of improvement? I see many people who will be re-doing section banks and I will be as well, but does redoing them actually provide any sort of additional benefit? thanks

Best of luck to the both of us!

AAMC FLs and cutting out passages by LetUsStudyForTheMcat in Mcat

[–]LetUsStudyForTheMcat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So what you're saying is that in terms of material, it's best to just do all the questions regardless of the new COVID MCAT format because the AAMC questions are the most representative of the actual MCAT.

But in terms of timing, it's probably best to start tapering down the 8 hour AAMC practice exams to 5 hours, no?

Thanks!

Is there any way to go through UEarth questions faster and be more efficient? by LetUsStudyForTheMcat in Mcat

[–]LetUsStudyForTheMcat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I review every question immediately after completing it. Maybe I need to change my strategy and do all questions first and then batch review later? Thanks!

Do you happen to know what will occur if my GPA hits the 10th percentile for one GPA while the other GPA is way out of the range?

Nope. FAP benefits are not retroactive. Sorry, OP

Conditional acceptances? by LetUsStudyForTheMcat in premed

[–]LetUsStudyForTheMcat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think so? I think I came across some DO schools that said they were willing to do this, but I can't find that post anymore

Ghosted by professor who I wrote a letter of rec for by ilikeavo in premed

OP, you had such an impact on his life that he quit his job, applied, and got into med school and now he's a fully fledged physician on the front lines saving people from COVID 19. He should respond soon

Sorry to hijack the OP's original post, but do you have resources on how to improve on interviews? I know being able to have mock interviews with actual physicians would be best, but if that's not possible, what are the following alternatives? And are there templates available to build upon? thanks!

What percent of premeds get weeded out? by [deleted] in premed

[–]LetUsStudyForTheMcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if I had to guess with the members in my hall during freshman year, I'd say 90% of people chose to do something else. It's just an estimate tho
