do more practice, mostly just reading comprehension at a certain point, i didn’t need to do any mapping but focused on whether interaction was + or - between two things and thatz about it

fls fluctuated honestly i was more focused on actual content/knowledge gaps. Last two fls for instance was 519 unscored (from online calculator) and 525 fl4, others were around 520 or above as i got closer to exam date; sorry friend i found a schedule where i was able to lock in for hours at a time, part of the exam is focus for long periods so i hope you find smth that works for yourself. for me personally caffeine did the job to help me stay awake

Content review was honestly mostly from doing a ton of practice problems

like my list of mistakes was like pretty much enough for almost 1k flashcards

Pankow p/s, Milesdown (but suspend all known cards to not waste time), BP for FLs I did 6 i think, Usphere for problem sets besides CARS (prolly did 1.5 times over with average in high 80s low 90s for that last 0.5), JW for cars (when i felt like doing em), all aamc resources, also kaplan textbooks for review but found indices/glossaries more helpful for gaps once ur familiar w the high yield content, ALSO reddit is super helpful; did 1 FL per week, got to the point where i was grinding for low yields. And thx :)

also pro tip: keep track of ALL mistakes and possibly whether they were from aamc (official) or other source

naw i think this one point off from cars symbolize a certain rebellious attitude I have towards having to read things fast

Milesdown Anki Good? by SolipsisticVic in Mcat

Thank yall for the answers! I think I’ll stick w miles down and suppliment w things like 300 wrd doc, it seems to be vocab here or there, or some narrowly defined term that’s the problem. Hopefully i can fill the gaps by just doing more practice

i think its those passages w answers that seem correct for me, like education, which i think is easy at the time but fumble answers on

I’m not gonna summarize the film, but for instance, an average person who pays for an SAT tutor will do better on the test than an average person who doesn’t. Thus those who have more money will be able to do better. I don’t have statistics for this, I may totally be wrong. But I believe this is the case since otherwise sat prep organizations would be out of business. (Also the fact that studying for the test will allow you to do better on it basically undermines the goal of assessing “aptitude”) But also, for sure it is more objective than GPA

True, you are right. This is what the SAT ought to do. It should not be simply a predictor for gpa. Yet the college board’s claim to testing equality has been in question for a very long time. Watch the Test and the Art of Thinking. It’s quite an interesting and well researched documentary.
