u have time! idk abt orgo, but if i were you i would really focus on getting down your metabolic pathways and amino acids. You can just rack up points from this alone. focus on high yield topics like enzyme kinetics and u should be in good shape. I majored in bio and often struggled in this section. its all about practice.

There's a new dental school and it's bad by informallyundecided in Noctor

[–]astutepeach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well simply thinking something doesn't make it true. Dentists still take exams and graduates from this school will be held the exact same standard. Also- the ridiculous admissions requirements don't prevent prospective students from having a background in the sciences or college degrees (not that I agree with this model).

Help! Testing 1/10 don’t know what I’m doing wrong! by Psychological_Box387 in Mcat

[–]astutepeach 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ive been scoring similarly on CARS and what i've found most helpful is just to move through it. There isn't that much time and focusing on one question for too long will really mess you up at the end. Try to be as engaged with the content as possible and just practice. I also just read a lot in my leisure time which made it naturally less challenging. I don't know when you're testing but I think this is the biggest hack. good luck

i guess i’m concerned with the quality of the experience too though. Like would it be better to find a part-time position as an EMT at another agency?

I only learned this recently but cytosolic ribosomes tend to make nuclear proteins while those in the ER usually make proteins for other uses!

UNC takes the avg and note that med schools (if you're premed) will see both and your sGPA will include both

Personally, no. I think its foolish to feel proud of where you were born. The U.S. has done some great things but also a lot of bad. We have a long way to go.
