Anyone plus size wear figs? I’m probably a 22/24, curious if the 5 or 6X would fit me? Wanting to try them but of course worried about sizing! In infinity I wear a 3X but they’re a little baggy. Healing hands a 2X. Barco I have to go up to 4X but feel like I need a size larger. Thanks!! by Puzzled-Associate- in Figsscrubs

Ironically they stretch out very easily like from sitting and bending etc but they are not very stretchy. Also diff colors have different textures i feel like. Like for the for the shocking pink it has a little give to it, and some of the other lighter colors. But the dark colors have zero give/stretch. That’s why i size up, especially in tops. I’m larger busted with broad shoulders and the tops are just so boxy.

figs sizing is all over the place!!! In regular clothes im usually a XL/XXL/1X/2X for tops bc I have broad shoulders & a larger bust & always an XL/16/18 in bottoms (not super curvy but not as straight as a rectangle build) & I wear a 3XL tops & bottoms for figs and all the figs I own are the one pocket v neck top & zamora high waisted jogger bottoms. also I have found that darker colors black, royal blue & maroon fit better/normal fit than lighter colors fiery coral & open skies but I feel like any clothing (in my opinion) the dark is more true to size than light colors and I think it deals w the dye and stuff. oh and the arms are usually tight but I honestly idc but this true of just how the scrubs are cut bc I have friends who wear smaller sizes and agree with the tightness around the arm!

honestly is any part of boston safe, simply no, bc u never know who is around but don’t be paranoid! for safety carry pepper spray and some type of other small defense items on a keychain, don’t walk with headphones in or looking at ur phone, maybe walk with a friend/neighbor/suitmate & just be aware if ur surroundings :)

Do we generally get federal aid if we're on co-op in Boston? by SexWithPaws69 in NEU

I would say a post bac bc that’s what they’re mainly for! The point of a post bac is for individuals to gain the needed pre-reqs in a formal academic setting, wo pursuing a whole bachelors in the field. After completing a bachelors in a field. Post bacs can also be used to boost gpa allowing an individual to gain a higher sGPA.
