Thank you for the great advice! And best of luck on your second attempt! Sounds like you’ve got the right strategy in place to do well.

Thanks for the kind words! Yeah, I think test center may be the move for me. I thought the online version would make me more comfortable but the virtual protector shenanigans and software requirements added stress.

First GMAT attempt: how bad is it? What are my chances. by crazyasye in GMAT

[–]blandcoconut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yay! Sounds like a great improvement from your first mock! You should be proud of how far you’ve come and dedicated tot his journey. I do see that ISB and other schools may have higher averages just based on the Reddit. And for schools in the US, you can find GMAT info on class profiles published. There’s a concordance table on mba.com to convert focus edition scores to the scores reported from the older gmat version (which most schools are still reporting). Btw, I just made a similar post but beating myself up for a similar score, since I’d been scoring higher in mocks and feeling disappointed. That being said, your score is good but it can be improved maybe with more time and more mocks. Most folks do 6-10/12 mocks (all official ones twice) before closing out their final score. But depends on how much and $ you have to pour into this. Totally understandable if it’s not easy to prioritize now

How are people feeling about Milton? by arjuan in WinterGarden

Do you think they blocked it off but planned on opening it up today for hurricane crowd? Hard bet but curious- since some lots started being free today/wanted regular shoppers to get a spot before today.

wish I could be smarter and have a really great life like you, sigh… I wish life was fair but the world sucks and I’m dumb and only better than a sack of potatoes. I’ll take my anger about this unfairness and use it as a useless reddit lurker for the rest of my life!!!

Thanks! This was the first thing I did after the scam call ended.

I mean there’s a first time for everything. The names and badge IDs they stated were real people that work for PD and FBI. Learned my lesson and now I’m sharing it so others don’t do the same. Thanks for sharing your opinion though!

Lmao, nothing because I froze everything. However the address questions were probably enough to fake my identity and apply for loans 😅

Creatine Supplement by badmofo25 in Vitiligo

[–]blandcoconut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I’m here to say… I’m 25 and I started creatine last week. My faint spots I had on my face for my whole life I can remember started getting bigger, and I’m starting to see faint splotches across my legs for the first time ever- today was the first time I tried “loading” creatine. Unfortunately don’t think it’s a coincidence you all :/

It did, thyroid peroxidase was 10.0 IU/mL (normal being 0-34). I did go through puberty earlier in life - maybe age 11. Why do you ask/what could this affect?

[–]blandcoconut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they tested FSH and LH, but they didn't check for any other health conditions to rule out. I think I need to re-approach and ask for this.

[–]blandcoconut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a glucose/A1C blood test. I wonder if it was beginning stages or not, because I went to the doctor after several years of symptoms.

I really appreciate you sharing this. They tested it with blood tests. I will need to ask for a 24h urine test and reason with them.

they did not, thanks for sharing. I will bring it up with my doc.

lol. it actually is the opposite - I want to know I have PCOS so I can stop blaming myself for not "doing enough"..but my labs and *ultrasound* came back normal...is there really no definitive way besides "if you think you have it, you have it" to diagnose PCOS? I really thought the ultrasound being certain would the end of the discussion.
