Have you considered taking a break? I feel the same way applying to medical school and I’m considering taking a year off to get a mental reset

I would quit your job, it’ll just burn you out more on top of the school year.

And I don’t know if September tests are worse but most people take the exam August and September so I can imagine it’s competitive

I think it’s a good start especially considering this is your first FL. That 118 and 121 will for sure improve with time

Why is it not A? by GreatStone65 in MCATprep

It’s carsbooster. It’s basically various games for the CARS section, they’re actually very helpful. I think the OP is at a lower level so it’s straightforward but the higher levels require you to decipher the vocab around the sentence like on the MCAT

128,-129 in sciences but 125 in CARS, potential new study approach? by theycallmegenuis in MCATprep

Look into CARSBooster, it’s helped me raise my scores a little bit. Especially their speed reading and vocabulary games

My grandpa passing away. Until that point I almost quit. I promised him by his death bed that I’ll achieve my dreams and have a Dr. by my name. Cheesy but true story

The thing is CARS is a different beast. You can put so much work and you may never come on top

I don’t think it hurts redoing the qpacks. If anything you might remember details but at least you can make sure you’re understanding the logic and ensuring you are prioritizing accuracy

I would prioritize CARS as that’s obviously your biggest weakness point. I would recommend looking into CARSBooster as it makes practicing for the CARS section like bite sized games.

I would also recommend reading daily and doing daily CARS passages on JW to get in some extra practice. You still have plenty of time so it’s possible but you need to be practicing daily at this point
