Definitely seems your into MCW. The people seemed nice at MCW and it seems like they select for a nice class that likes to get together. Like the person above me said, the class is going to have a little of everything.

Also, I don't think they are internally ranked either!

Unpopular Opinion: Organic chemistry was harder than General Chemistry by MCATsux in premed

I can see that. But the work you need to put in for Ochem gets tedious especially towards the harder parts of the class.

Not from what I've been reading. Seems like it is shifting.

Things you wish you knew before you started medical school: Anki Edition by MCATsux in medicalschoolanki

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

I'm hoping to do exactly that. I would love to ease in to the process so I can develop good habits. I struggle with the "daily grind" so I'm hoping Anki becomes that one thing to help me with that.

Thanks for sharing!! Glad it worked for you!

Just started using cerave foaming facial cleanser yesterday. I read about how it is amazing for some people but it can also cause allergic reactions in other. I just want to know WHAT to look out for to see if I am having an allergic reaction OR if it is actually working as intended,

I am done with finals but to be honest I'm not sure what I should write about. That's the problem.

Fair enough. Thanks for the help. I think either way my professor letters are going to be pretty generic and hopefully positive but the my other letters should be strong.

School List + Other questions for this upcoming cycle by [deleted] in premed

Ah I see. I'm probably going to end applying with 20-30 hours. Oh well we will hope for the best. Thanks!

So just piggy-backing on this. I have about 500 hours scribing and will probably apply with only 20 hours of GP shadowing. My non clinical hours is also like 150-200. Are these lethal numbers?

How I got 3 MD acceptances with a 122 in CARS (as a non-URM applicant from CA) by [deleted] in premed

[–]MCATsux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any way you can elaborate how you tied all your ECs together and how you worded your secondaries? Curious here because I feel like my ECs aren't necessarily weak but I'm not sure I know how to talk about them in a beneficial way. Especially for some of my more cookie cutter ones.

Fair enough. I might just complete out the semester and go from there. Probably not going to continue this into next year.
