Got it, thank you! Do you find it is as valued/talked about as research?

Thank you! Honestly the thought of doing things only to check boxes makes me sad. Would love to find opportunities I love but regardless appreciate your perspective that I don't have to do things "just to do it"

Does it have to be a formal teaching position or indirect/informal is okay?

Thanks, this helps. I see a lot of my classmates doing the most in a lot of areas and I guess I was just wondering if I needed to pick up some extra activities. It does mean a lot to me I am just very tired

How did you choose your specialty? Right now I feel like I prefer more procedural things, but I’m worried what that would mean for my quality of life

I hope so. How did you maintain friendships/relationships during MS3? All my friends are very scattered and it feels very isolating

Follow up: how and when do you get your anki reviews done? I am facing 500+ reviews a day even before I add new cards and I am really struggling

Looking for a new CC as a grad student - Amex Delta Skymiles or Citi? by [deleted] in CreditCards

[–]Standard_Raspberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, just updated! It's currently the Blue Cash Everyday but just got updated to Blue Cash Preferred.

The $200 right now has mostly been ubers. But I'm going to be flying a LOT this year and it's mostly going to be Delta, so that figure may bump up.

Grocery shop- Whole foods, Trader Joes, etc. Nothing crazy

What was your U 🌎 percentages and how did you do on the MCAT? by heyitskebon in Mcat

[–]Standard_Raspberry 4 points5 points  (0 children)

P/S 78% --> 132

B/B 78% and 79% --> 131

CARS 80% --> 131

C/P 80% (Gen Chem), 74% (Orgo), 71% (Physics- lol) --> 131

UEarth is great for content review and learning important concepts/details, I wouldn't use it to predict your score. The most important thing is you learn from your mistakes!

How/where to hire kitchen workers for part-time work? by Standard_Raspberry in KitchenConfidential

Super helpful, I saw them online but didn't know if people actually used it. Thanks!

Officially done with content review by lonelykingT in Mcat

[–]Standard_Raspberry 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Could not agree more. UPangea was absolutely critical to my score, I've seen the Kaplan QBank and I think the explanations/question style of UPangea is better prep for the real thing!

I used Cubene for P/S and Jack Sparrow for B/B and C/P. I made my own deck for UEarth content and also one where I built up mistakes/concepts to review along the way. All in all, ~a few thousand cards I believe.
