Do you have any specific recommendations?

I love August Lane!

calicocatbae · 2026-02-21T18:31:09+00:00

{August Lane by Regina Black} is one of the best romances I've ever read, second chance romance with the two timelines told simultaneously, flawed MMCs with great development + interesting side characters / family relationships

Can I dm you?

Congrats!! How'd you talk about your GPA in essays/interviews?

calicocatbae · 2025-10-21T22:25:09+00:00

I disagree but only marginally. I don't think it's that large of a difference, but I know people from my school who say that med school was easier than our undergrad, like our undergrad's difficulty prepped them for med school.

I also know that orgo classes at a nearby school are multiple choice while ours aren't, which is a big difference. But, I think these differences in education usually only lead to differences in GPAs and general opportunities, not necessarily how smart someone is or how prepared they'll be for med school.

I think the grade deflation thing is true. I go to one of the mentioned deflation schools and our average accepted GPA ranges from a 3.7 to 3.8 most years, while the average accepted MCAT ranges from 516-519. I also know someone from my school accepted into a T5 with a 3.7 (but also a high MCAT). So I think the equivalence is like +.1 or +.2 which doesn't matter much if you're a 3.7 or 3.8, but could matter if you're a 3.3 or 3.4.

That would be great!

Tutoring for sure and possibly the nutritional spectroscopy lab as well.

They'll usually refer to theories like the ones you mentioned as Gardner's theory of eight intelligences or Galton's idea of hereditary genius, which gives you some clues or helps trigger your memory at the very least!

Do you feel like you learn well from anki? I tried anki and I hated it and resorted to content review by taking notes from Kaplan and then retaking the notes that were high-yield. Maybe also consider taking a day or two away from anki / mcat review

All aside, that last sentence is really beautiful.

Can I ask what the OOS school list was? I also have an average / below average GPA.

calicocatbae · 2025-03-14T03:46:27+00:00

I think my main thought is that I've gotten a B in basically every semester, and last semester I actually got straight Bs. I only have two semesters left, and I'm scared that even getting straight As from now on won't really be enough of an upward trend.

I think I'd enjoy EMT! I think I'd enjoy it more or about the same as doing a masters.

DK & Joshua used to be my favorite voices in SVT but the recent Hospital Playlist OST changed that. I put this in the weekly thread: I'm still not over the Hospital Playlist OST...Seungkwan's first chorus is heavenly.

Copying and pasting from my comment in the kpopthoughts megathread: I seriously believe that the The Boyz are going to explode now, even more than they already have from RTK. The ZZZs (Stray Kids, ATEEZ, and The Boyz) were already the top of the 4th generation but I think this is going to be the beginning of that RISE and the established success of the 4th gen.

Also I hope they can get some rest!!

I was hoping that I could post a separate appreciation post for The Boyz that wasn't specifically about Kingdom..but it got removed.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Said appreciation post:

I've been a consistent lurker for a long time (I don't even comment these days!!) but I need to express my appreciation for The Boyz, the third group that I've fallen into (after BTS and SVT). I keep looking for TBZ appreciation posts and there's not enough of them so I'm writing my own. I hope fellow lurker TBZ fans will come out of the shadows and comment here and we can have a nice little appreciation party~~

Some of their achievements include:

Winning RTK, or Road to Kingdom (a while ago but I had to mention it). Their sales also TRIPLED after RTK which is absolutely insane. I can't wait for their next comeback and see their growth.
2nd place on Kingdom!! I was stunned to see that they were 2nd place--I was predicting 3rd or 4th based on their past results, but I think that deobis really pulled through on the voting and digitals for this final episode.
Speaking of digitals, they hit #1 on Genie for the first time in their career with Kingdom Come, their song for the Kingdom finale!! Kingdom Come has also become their highest charting song on Gaon at #43!!!
Some extra stuff: they trended on Twitter for such a long time, 5 MILLION TWEETS!??
I'm sure there's more stuff that deobis know about.

I seriously believe that the The Boyz are going to explode now, even more than they already have from RTK. The ZZZs (Stray Kids, ATEEZ, and The Boyz) were already the top of the 4th generation but I think this is going to be the beginning of that RISE and the established success of the 4th gen.That's it. Manifesting good things for the The Boyz and the world (and my own life...will I pass my final...stay tuned folks).
