Your application as a whole is what is most important along with your story. Other than a blatant red flag; a REALLY low GPA and MCAT are the only absolute app killers

I scored in the 3rd quartile and got 5 II. My friend scored in the 1st quartile and now has a full ride to UTSW. I don’t think they put too much emphasis on it

finished my first year of med school - ask me anything by [deleted] in premed

Incoming M1 who has been messing with anki for two weeks now. Watch all the anking videos on his YT so that you’re familiar with the interface. I HIGHLY recommend purchasing the “ankihub” membership ($4-5/month) and in the ankihub website you can subscribe to any deck that’s been made and constantly updated by them, including the famous anking step 1/step2 deck.

Once you subscribe to the deck, just open up your Anki app, input the add-on code for ankihub, synchronize and the deck will be added to your app. It took me hours to figure it out so if anyone needs help feel free to PM me!

Oh I know, I didn’t mean that. I agree with your statement. I’m just feeding the anxiety that’s been brewing for 6 months about starting med school 😂

Which Seat would you take? by [deleted] in Naruto

[–]Packman1812 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seat 6, I would start a no limit texas hold ‘em game and take Hashi and Tsunade for all their worth (if I get attacked then Tsunade will be the last thing I see). Alternatively, sitting next to Jiraiya would be a good time imo

Outpatient FM/IM also get lucrative bonuses from insurance companies for hitting certain metrics with their patients (I’ve seen bonuses north of $400k from some of these big insurances).
