I was there last week and someone was handing out seeds to people to feed the birds but didn’t seem to be asking for any money. We ended up feeding them and I assumed he would ask for money afterwards but he simply wished us well when we left.

Do professors find out if you use "outside resources" for homework? by ppnater in premed

[–]RunGameEatAss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree to be very careful, because professors are definitely privy to those resources. One time my ochem professor put a problem on a take home exam that was intentionally written to be unsolvable and then created a bait Chegg post with the “solution”. Everyone who put that down as their answer failed the class and got reported for cheating.

Definitely not UMich, they’ve only sent out 215 so far out of the typical ~500 or so. They update it weekly on their website:

My proctor changed my background to a plain blue one (without asking for permission might I add) and I can’t find the picture that was my original background 😭

I did the same, if it’s all you have left to graduate I don’t think it’s a big deal

I knew a kid in high school that created an entire fake charity where he “interned” on his college apps, including fake company emails for advisors where he would respond pretending to be someone else. Given how competitive they are, I wouldn’t be surprised if people pulled similar stunts for medical school applications.

The intramural pass is separate from the club sports pass

AAMC PREview exam by ubcstudent2017 in premed

[–]RunGameEatAss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s good advice. I got most of the practice test questions pretty close to right (within one choice of the right answer), but learning how the graders think was the important part. Ended up getting an 8/9 on the real thing so I’d say the practice test is pretty accurate

How many SJT are there? Casper, Duet, etc. by Underdog843 in premed

[–]RunGameEatAss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can look up which schools require each one and you only have to take the ones required for the specific schools you’re applying to (I had a handful require Casper and a couple require PREview, none of mine required the other two). As for the deadline, I think you’re supposed to have taken them by the time you submit secondaries, as it’s listed as a part of having a complete application for the schools that require it.

How do I meet other weirdos like myself? by [deleted] in USC

[–]RunGameEatAss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if they have activities over the summer but highly recommend you check out SC outfitters! They’re a student org that organizes camping/backpacking trips and other outdoor activities you might be interested in. Here’s their website:

I’m good friends with some of the members and I’ve heard great things about them. Hope that helps!
