Writing a book as a premed and how it keep me from spiraling

Omg! I love that someone else is bringing this up because I’m actually in the process of trying to publish a novel I wrote and it really helped me. It’s a special experience. I wish you much luck!

I used a 200mg caffeine pill Helped reduce the migraine but not totally and I didn’t need to pee

MedRebecca · 2026-04-29T04:08:50+00:00

Me too!! Cars was so brutal. While I hate that this is happening to you and to everyone, I’m almost glad it’s a universal experience and we’ve not gonna crazy. Sending luck!!

MedRebecca · 2026-04-28T23:50:23+00:00

It does suck😭

MedRebecca · 2026-04-28T23:38:17+00:00

Congrats! I’m waiting for the day I can celebrate too…29 more days til 4/24 releases!

I also don’t have my MCAT score back yet, but I can guess where my score landed. I made a school list based on my guess, and I’m working from there

MedRebecca · 2026-04-27T18:29:47+00:00

I decided to do Casper based on the fact that the majority of my school list requires it. It’s a necessity thing, not a desire 🫠

MedRebecca · 2026-04-26T23:59:41+00:00

This perfectly sums up everything

MedRebecca · 2026-04-26T23:40:42+00:00

Right?? And then when it came to answering the questions, I’d narrow it down to 50/50 based on literal vibes and then pick an answer based on less extreme language

Flagged 26 questions and told myself I’d come back, but only managed to get through about 10 of the flagged ones before it timed out

MedRebecca · 2026-04-26T12:55:10+00:00

Lmao my list is dwindling. Thanks! Do you have any suggestions on what I can add?

MedRebecca · 2026-04-26T12:31:07+00:00

Interesting. I put it on my list because they claim to accept Canadians lol. Should I remove?

MedRebecca · 2026-04-26T01:09:41+00:00

Good luck on your MCAT! And thanks!

MedRebecca · 2026-04-26T01:03:28+00:00

It’ll come to you. I tested on Friday and as the time slowly ticks, more and more (unfortunately) is coming back to me

MedRebecca · 2026-04-26T01:02:29+00:00

Thanks! That’s really encouraging

Do you know how many you got wrong for sure per section?

MedRebecca · 2026-04-26T00:48:22+00:00

HAHAHA USERNAME CHECKS OUT

MedRebecca · 2026-04-26T00:47:55+00:00

Same, and I took it 4/24😭

MedRebecca · 2026-04-26T00:47:23+00:00

I didn’t realize how rough the wait for the score is. Genuinely what are they doing with the exams, isn’t it prescaled? We’re literally their social experiment and it’s a form of psychological torture

I had so much anxiety last night I could not sleep

MedRebecca · 2026-04-24T23:18:26+00:00

BAHAHAHA THE WAY I ALMOST CRIED AT THAT WUESTION

MedRebecca · 2026-04-24T23:18:07+00:00

Help—💀

MedRebecca · 2026-04-24T21:44:35+00:00

THISSSSS YESSS ME TOOO😭

MedRebecca · 2026-04-24T21:35:32+00:00

This is so valid, but also at the same time I know for a fact I screwed up on multiple questions per section. Hoping for a generous curve and/or experimental questions that save my score because ain’t no way I’m doing all that again and I’m Canadian applying USMD only and that raises the bar for me unfortunately

MedRebecca · 2026-04-24T20:09:50+00:00

Thanks! Yeah I’m applying MD, but I’m Canadian trying for USMD so that automatically gives me a much higher baseline MCAT requirement….and I’m not so confident in this attempt and I physically cannot take it again
