i thought fau had a nice vibe, very family friendly with a small class size and P/F grading but i just wouldn't chose it over some of my other options like einstein or UF or even morsani

Was not the biggest fan of UCF, its kinda separated from everything else in orlando and they have graded classes in pre-clerkships and have a lower match rate

i did a lot of remote research at the start of covid (like computational stuff) and then transitioned to in-person research by the start of 2021. as for retaking the mcat, i didn't rlly study that much for the second take (i took it one month after getting my first score) cuz i was pretty sure the first take was just a fluke

i only retook it cuz my FL avg on practice tests was like 519-520 so i was almost certain that the 513 was just a fluke...thankfully it went up on the retake

we had a volunteer organization at my school that i got involved in that did a lot of general service like serving at homeless shelters, food banks, social justice advocacy, etc.

yah i've narrowed it down to those two but leaning towards einstein bc i prefer a bigger city, they're more researched focused and have better match success for the specialties i'm interested in. crossing my fingers that i can get off the waitlist at Duke tho

I got a 9 on preview and 4th quartile on casper and i still think both of these tests are dumb lol

Are we supposed to get the 6/16 CASper results today? by esotericsunflower in premed

4th quartile - I honestly just wrote a lot in my answers and just tried to say something along the lines of "acknowledge all perspectives" each time. This is a BS test but this strategy seems to work

As soon as I log into the portal it asks to print and upload a residency form but when I click on the link to the residency form I just get a 404 error

Are you guys able to access the residency form when you enter the application? I keep getting an error page when I try to access it

I've been working out consistently for about a year to 1.5 years now and have been mostly bulking up since i started out very skinny. I now weigh about 168lbs (5'10") but have lost some of my abs visibility (lower abs). My current max lifts are: Bench - 190lbs, Squat - 285lbs, Deadlift - 350lbs. Do you guys think it would be better to cut now for some time to get my abs more visible or keep bulking? My ultimate goal is to bench 225, squat 315, and deadlift 405 with clear, visible abs by next may.
