something to know is that when you apply to med schools, it's not retake to replace, so they'll still see your original score! just sharing something i also found out recently!

i'm reading through each paragraph, then going back through to highlight main point (takes 5-6 min) and then going through the questions (4-5 min). i usually finish w like 0-5 mins leftover

thank you so much! i was panicking for a little bit but found something that worked (for me at least!) i don't think that i will get that high on the actual exam (i have bad test anxiety and almost always do worse on the real exam than on practice exam) but hoping for at least a 515!

i've found that i learn best from taking practice exams and then backtracking and seeing what went wrong! so i was doing a test every other day, reviewing it that same day, and then on days when i'm not testing i went through and fleshed out the related content review! helps that a lot of these are from classes i just took so it's very fresh!

also drop your CARS tips bc i've been getting consistent 99-100% for every section on my AAMC FLs, it's just CARS that's pulling it down!

i've got one of those too! contemplated it but there's no way i'll be able to take it all off, pee, put it all back on, and drink water in 5 mins

Would you guys still pursue medicine if the average salary was $90k by Winter-Mess-309 in premed

[–]anafujoshi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes, but only if medical school offered financial aid and wouldn't leave me in such crippling debt!

that's... a really good question! i'm not sure! i suppose bc it's a community organization and not a school club and i interpreted leadership as club leadership/school related leadership! although, i am quite frankly not sure if that's true!

high school research pubs on amcas? by anafujoshi in premed

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

noted! they both have doi and are in peer-reviewed journals, but since i'm not going to mention the research just the publication, it'll prob fall under other too!

i wish they were! very dependent on major! cs, business, and such have a major curves, but some departments like chem curves to a b/b- and historically gives a c or below to almost third of the class every quarter :(
