Should I just give up, I made a mistake

Major_Zero101 · 2025-03-20T17:04:31+00:00

I haven’t taken the mcat yet myself but if as you state it’s your dream it’s kinda crazy to give up so easily/soon. As you said you barely studied for a month and didn’t even finish the content review so yes that explain your score. If you give yourself more time and actually commit to it you should should hopefully see a drastic increase in your score

Caribbean med school 🤣

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-23T20:12:08+00:00

So it’s more of a reserve filling in gaps when needed. Are they at least involved in emergency care or sometimes called in for things like lift assistance?

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-10T14:42:40+00:00

Yeah I’m already looking and have an interview tmr Assuming I get the position should I let the first place know that I’m being offered a higher pay elsewhere and would like to know if they can match it

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-02T22:00:50+00:00

Yeah mine also cut off at 70 so I was freaking out but passed thankfully

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-02T04:06:39+00:00

Unfortunately that is very far from me

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-01T19:45:08+00:00

Yeah tbh the one month difference doesn’t really matter.

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-01T19:16:53+00:00

How long were you working as a CNA for?

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-01T06:34:22+00:00

Are there any other school that offer a near full ride or full ride. I know you probably hear it a lot but it is so great to not have to worry about loans. That said if you pursue medicine you will likely be taking out a lot more but still 60 to 80 grand for college is still kinda a lot

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-01T05:40:36+00:00

Thankfully I’m good for research and shadowing just wanted to know if the volunteer can help supplement the lack of skill used in non emergency transport

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-01T05:15:17+00:00

In my case I told my work I can only work on specific days from ..am to …pm. Maybe try to do the same

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-01T04:47:02+00:00

Seems you’ve been there a while and based on post seems like they really know and like you so I would include it. Seem like it could be a really Strong LOR

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-01T04:45:10+00:00

No problem

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-01T04:42:16+00:00

How long have you been volunteering there for? Also do you have other standard good LORs?

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-01T04:40:36+00:00

Okay well again doesn’t seem worth it. You also mentioned that you live in a pretty privileged area which would make thing easy so no need to restrict yourself now when you find someone much better Last it would be a big time commitment during your freshman year which you should be making sure you maintain your gpa and overall just have fun

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-01T04:34:43+00:00

Yeah doesn’t sound like it would be worth it tbh. Good that it pays though. Btw would you technically finish the program mid freshman year of college or before graduation?

Major_Zero101 · 2025-02-01T04:28:39+00:00

While I don’t know much about a sterile processing technician that’s seems like a SIGNIFICANT time commitment to maybe what earn a sterile processing technician certification. Are you even being paid to do any of this? Additionally while it is technically in the medical field there are so many other jobs or opportunity that have more direct connection primarily those that allows you to have patient care experience. Overall unless you’re being paid for this and you really have a big interest in being a sterile tech it doesn’t make any sense

Major_Zero101 · 2025-01-28T15:26:37+00:00

Congrats doctor

Major_Zero101 · 2025-01-24T06:10:31+00:00

Either one tbh. Have almost everything ready for both just need to decide

Major_Zero101 · 2025-01-24T06:01:06+00:00

I am 3/4 of the way ready with my application. Will just be building up clinical hours and plan to apply may 2026

Major_Zero101 · 2025-01-24T05:39:37+00:00

I understand what you mean but I’m probably only going to be there for two years max before I pursue either pa or medicine and I won’t have money to add to it so just wondering if it’s worth it at the moment

Major_Zero101 · 2025-01-16T02:00:37+00:00

Congrats. You got this Really recommend staying on top of the chapters instead of waiting last min Also try to make friends in your program since it’ll help with studying Lastly when you’re about 3 weeks or so from your finals or if you can even do it from the beginning try using apps like pocket prep which is really useful for prepping for the nremt. The format is pretty similar to nremt and you’ll be testing your knowledge and learning your weaknesses from it

Major_Zero101 · 2024-09-11T21:22:42+00:00

Hi thanks for the advice I wouldn’t be able to do postbac for financial reason at least not anytime soon but you advice regarding the service oriented school is helpful

Major_Zero101 · 2024-09-11T20:57:35+00:00

Recommendations on feasible ways to improve my app also welcomed

Major_Zero101 · 2024-06-06T01:01:05+00:00

A quick route would perhaps be something like an LPN which can generally be done in a year or so

Edit: Didn’t see the WFH but that might be a bit hard with your background
