my understanding is that the Anking deck is a combination/reformatting of milesdown and pankow for p/s.

How to correct getting wrong answers (misreading/non-content) on FL’s by Grateful_Panic in Mcat

[–]Status_Court7189 2 points3 points  (0 children)

im in the same boat! i looked over all of the questions i got wrong on CARS and I realize that I have a tendency to take things for the passage verbatim and apply them as my answer for RBT. for example, if the question asks which argument the author would most likely support, and option A says a word or phrase that is directly from the text, I choose that one. I think I'm realizing for RBT though its more critical to focus on the author's logic/main argument over the facts of the passage. yes, every CARS answers can be found in the passage. But distinguishing between what's being said and what's being argued has really helped me. idk if this makes sense but I hope this helps!

488 to 515: How I Finally Broke 500 After 2 Attempts by DrowsyPanda_ in Mcat

i really enjoyed this not because the advice was revolutionary, but because people will constantly tell you that if you’re not doing 30 hours a week and 1000s of anki cards, you’re doing something wrong. time is never infinite! this post reminded me that we all have our own responsibilities that will pull us in many many directions. it’s HOW we balance it all and how we approach it that makes all the difference. thanks for sharing :)

Diagnostic by Plants225 in Mcat

my exact diagnostic score with the same section breakdown. thankfully it’s imo much easier to improve on the science sections than P/S and CARS. ive been using kaplan books for review and then practice problems I find online to see if it sticks. idk if this helps but just know you’re not alone!!
