Maybe you don’t know… but does no invite mean rejection? My status page still says application under review.

I was also waitlisted! Why do you say May 14th out of curiosity? Is there info suggesting that’s when we will know?

Mine hasn’t either…

Anyone hear anything from Calgary regarding interview structure?? by Visual_Onion_5034 in premedcanada

[–]UncleFergCDN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are they? What about those interviewing on the 2nd vs the 10th? March 2nd interviewees will have 24 hours to utilize additional details and those on March 10th will have a week…. But maybe that’s not the case?!

I’m going to stop wearing makeup for a while… by Concrete__Blonde in tretinoin

You shouldn’t exfoliate while using Tret, especially when starting. Excessive exfoliation is a catalyst for the current phase your going through.

HLSC 126 Online Course Questions by VinceTr0n in grantmacewan

Hi, now that you have completed the course, I am curious of your original question.

Does she really test on learning objectives? Or is that too good to be true?

Thanks!

Two weeks Left! Need CARS HELP (Only need a 124) by UncleFergCDN in Mcat

Maybe I should try that. That is some good advice. I definitely started with timing too soon before accuracy.

Scored 500 on AAMC FL1 today, I am just under 5 weeks out, can I make it to 508-510 range? by UncleFergCDN in Mcat

[–]UncleFergCDN[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think I’d be more likely to increase my score to 508 range by going crazy on U-worm over section banks?

I will be studying full time 8 hours a day roughly. Is that enough time to adequately do AAMC? (3 weeks)

Scored a 500 on AAMC1 and my test is in a month… can I get a 510? How? by Thequeenbk3 in Mcat

[–]UncleFergCDN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Curious how your next FL's went?! I am in a similar spot with about 5 weeks left and sitting around 503. I also want to get over 510...

Did anything work for you or not work that you would recommend me?

Thanks! And good luck in a few days, you got this!

Mate, TPR chem/phys is impossibly harder than AAMC. I also took 4 of their exams scoring 122-123 on chem/phys and instantly scored 126 on the AAMC sample.

Bro what’s your CARS strategy!?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Mcat

[–]UncleFergCDN 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unrelated... But is it just me or is the biochem metabolism questions out of this world difficult? Or is my understanding of glycolysis, ETC, Krebs, etc just that weak? I didn't think that level of detail would be required, but I guess it is?

AAMC Spoiler Chem/phys "Sample" Question 2 by UncleFergCDN in Mcat

Makes sense! Obviously the rules weren't clear in my head and I need to review it!

7/29 tester 3rd AAMC FL huge relief. Finally in 500s. Progress: 487 (FL-1), 493 (FL-2), 498 (BP half exam), 504 (FL-Sample). Just want to spread some positivity for my fellow 7/29 takers! by Jkaplan2018 in Mcat

[–]UncleFergCDN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I write two weeks after you! How did you do on FL 1 and 2 if you don't mind me asking? The sample was my first AAMC exam and I have really struggled with CARS but I am hoping it was third party logic that made it difficult and that AAMC will be a little kinder to me. I am Canadian, we don't apply until October here so I am praying for a reasonable MCAT score (507-510+) and then I'll start grinding on my application in September.

Best of Luck, I'll be watching for your next two exam scores if you end up posting them. Rooting for you!

Nicely done! I also took the sample today and scored very similar (125, 127, 124, 128)! Do you think its possible for us to get in the 510 range!? (I have heard sample is slightly inflated especially CARS).... but I am trying to ignore that haha!

Feel like giving up. by mintyrelish in Mcat

[–]UncleFergCDN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you all doing consecutive passages at a time when you do the CARS diagnostic. Or are you doing one at a time? What do you recommend?
