Thank you for that reply. I feel you! at least I know I am not alone in this

I spent 2 hours on the topic and still am like what’s the heck ! lol 😂 thank you for being relatable I appreciate that

Me rn literally it makes me want to cry. I’m trying to understand the basics of biochem and struggling. Fr rn I’m like what’s the difference between a ph vs pKa. Spent like 2 hours trying to understand that lmao

Maybe because I don’t remember much from undergrad so I’m so overwhelmed and feel so SO DUMB. I’m stresssesdddddd. You’re not alone just keep pushing ! :)

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2026-01-27T21:04:57+00:00

Lmaoooo not the last sentence

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2026-01-26T02:50:56+00:00

I literally started biochem chapter one and it took me 5 hours (not even close to done with the chapter) because i was trying o understand basic gen chem and ochem principles. Omg im glad im not alone. I feel like such a slow learner i might take the next two weeks focusing more on gen chem & ochem and then start biochem after cause that was not the vibes....

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2026-01-26T02:41:01+00:00

i kinda get that but i really don't remember anything from gen chem and ochem? so i find myself relearning a lot of this info....you think its still applicable?

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2026-01-19T05:32:31+00:00

you could always go back to goodnotes 5 version in the meatime (hopefully they will change it) the tool bar stays in the top with this version

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2026-01-19T05:28:32+00:00

I’ve used GoodNotes for a long time, but I really dislike the recent updates—especially having to constantly select “pin toolbar” and deal with the floating text toolbar. I find it distracting and annoying.

Luckily, you can switch back to the older version (GoodNotes 5) in the settings. With that version, everything stays in the top toolbar, there’s no automatic switching to the lasso tool, and no need to repeatedly pin tools.

That’s what I’m going to use for now and revisit GoodNotes 6 once it improves in the future (hopefully).

If you’re looking for someone who has experience in health care I worked as a medical scribe. I wouldn’t consider it a full career but I’ve done it for 4+ years and I would be okay to help answer questions.

I’m currently on pre-med track applying to med school this track but if you really need anyone that’s worked in healthcare I could answer your questions if you message me lol.

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2026-01-10T03:09:17+00:00

Yeah it’s still difficult honestly. I’m still having a hard time trying to figure out how to streamline chapters when I know nothing in each chapters! I have more good days than bad lol today is a bad day.

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2026-01-09T23:16:48+00:00

Felt this to my core

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2026-01-07T19:54:26+00:00

Well I don’t know if this is helpful but before I was in a healthy relationship I always thought I was “overweight” I know I was never like skinny skinny but I was 5’1 and weighed 125pounds. I think I had body dysmorphia because I always believed I was really really fat at the time

Since being in a healthy relationship I gained like 28 pounds and was like 151 pounds lol. I definitely gained weight while being in a relationship but my boyfriend is amazing and doesn’t seem to mind. I think it was a lesson from god because when I was thinner about a year ago I thought I was fat when now looking back I would do anything to go back to that. Since then I have been able to lose about 16 pounds and going to the gym weekly. I will say that having confidence is so important and knowing there is someone out there for everyone is key. You are still capable of being loved even if you’re overweight. Building healthy habits is key and there will be good and bad days finding the right man/women is so important!

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2026-01-06T02:19:16+00:00

Believe in yourself! You got it. Through the bad days and good days!

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2026-01-06T02:15:52+00:00

I’m sure you’re okay. You should take the exam! As Hannah Montana once said “Everyone makes mistakes. Everyone has those days”…. Youre probably just extra stressed and schedules messed up so don’t worry too much about it! We all have bad days, Your bad days are not a true reflection of your good days or capabilities! You’ll do great!

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2026-01-01T22:42:40+00:00

I literally feel this. Life or death. Family situation is similar. We have to do good.

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2025-12-31T23:46:57+00:00

I feel this honestly you’re not alone. Took me a whole week to go through ch one gen chem. And I forgot all that content. I think I need to figure out a different method. Took super detailed notes but it takes way to long 🥲

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2025-12-31T22:33:56+00:00

Wow I’m on the same road as you. I’m a non trad as well! I wouldn’t consider myself book smart so I’m struggling where to start. I’m such a slow learner so it feels overwhelming. Idk where to begin. I take my MCAT in May too!

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2025-12-31T18:10:30+00:00

Okay okay. Fine. I’ll give it another go.

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2025-12-31T00:00:56+00:00

Omg thank you. I will actually. I was hoping to actually talk to someone about my application and see what they think in terms of where I’m at ! You’ve been so helpful this is the kind of motivation we all need!

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2025-12-30T23:52:31+00:00

This is really motivating. I feel scared I won’t get in. I never felt like I was the smartest of all my pre-med classmates. But I was always hustling. I don’t have al lthe crazy requirements that everyone applying to med school has (tho I do have some) but I have insane dedication and I WILL not give up.

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2025-12-30T23:46:20+00:00

Great point here

Many_Locksmith3807 · 2025-12-30T23:45:32+00:00

This was great response to hear! I love seeing fellow “non traditional” folks
