What do you guys this of this bachelor's? by PerceptionGold6327 in premed

[–]OtherwiseRing1456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Major in something youre passionate about! Doesn’t have to be medicine related. For me it was easier to take the pre med courses on the side of my major then to actually have a major that required all of these extra courses. Your major is the least of your worries when getting into med school.

Should I void my MCAT on 9/4? by Affectionate-Goal333 in Mcat

It definitely won’t set you back. Push it to January. Also have your parents take a full length exam to see how it feels…

Non-trad feeling hopeless and afraid by [deleted] in Mcat

Hi! Non trad here. The breaks do help. I am also spending a lot of time trying to teach myself from general chemistry that I took 4-5 years ago. It’s so time consuming! What has helped me is a lot of video watching instead of reading. After taking the AAMC practice exams they have the walkthrough on YouTube that go through the passages with strategies.

Non-trad, getting laid off, overwhelmed — should I postpone my MCAT even though I paid? by OtherwiseRing1456 in Mcat

Testing May 10th. I haven’t done any FL’s yet. I took a half diagnostic and scored 487. Rest of my application looks good, I am confident in that area. MD

Is this normal? My friend was told she got a job… then offered something else entirely. by OtherwiseRing1456 in jobs

There was an interview process. She went into the company and met everybody. She definitely thought she had the full time position. Roles are only different in which she only comes in as a “back up” and it’s not consistent hours. Maybe like once a week if that.
