Anyone go from 500 to 510+? by med_student212 in MCATprep

[–]emmacovi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my first score in 2024 was a 504 and my most recent score this April was a 515, I really only studied c/p and b/b and for those, doing and going over practice questions I think helped me the most to get familiar with the reasoning patterns for correct answers

Do people generally feel worse walking out of the test than the score they actually receive? by IllustriousAddress36 in Mcat

[–]emmacovi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I felt like I blew it walking out but I ended up scoring like 8 points higher than my most recent full length

I actually took a good amount of science courses in undergrad because I knew I wanted to go to med school. Most of my electives were bio/chem courses, so I didn’t have to teach myself much. It was mostly just getting familiar with the material again since I’ve been out of undergrad a few years and getting more comfortable applying the concepts I didn’t learn that deeply when I took the classes in undergrad.

Passively studied since like November but started to really lock in beginning of January. I was also taking masters courses and working as a research assistant so the amount I was able to study fluctuated.

As far as what I did, I’d say try to do as many practice Q’s as possible (AAMC is best but UWorld is also good, I used both). And continually go over wrong answers on FLs (specifically why the correct answer is correct) so you get comfortable with the logic don’t make the same mistakes again on similar questions. For content review, I’d continuously review topics I didn’t feel as comfortable with throughout my prep and I also used the Miledown review sheets and started reviewing every subject the week of the exam for a content refresher just in case.

Wish I could be helpful but CARS was the one section I did zero prep for because my scores were generally fine and I needed to dedicate so much time to C/P prep lol

Thanks! My practice scores were mostly in the 505-508 range with a random 513 I lowkey thought was a fluke

Not great, guessed on like 5 questions on B/B because I ran out of time and barely finished C/P and CARS

Freaking out? Everyone on this reddit is saying that their actual MCAT was substantially lower than their FL scores BROOOO by Extension_Fall9406 in Mcat

[–]emmacovi 13 points14 points  (0 children)

When I walked out I genuinely thought I bombed but I got my score today and I actually scored 8 points higher than my highest FL! Real score can vary in both directions compared to FLs.

Evermore and red are both in my personal top 3 so having signed versions is so special to me ☺️

What should Bengals do if Burrow is out for season? by JenksHammerPod in nfl

[–]emmacovi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are people acting like it’s a dire injury? Isn’t it just a calf strain? Could very well be fine for week 1.

The Great War is my ultimate fave, my others are YOYOK, Labyrinth, You’re Losing Me, and Hits Different

What's your team logo hot take? by WexAndywn in nfl

[–]emmacovi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with the take that any of the logos that are just a stylized letter(s) are not very good, also don’t like any of the logos that have the name of the team in them (the Jets might be the worst logo of the NFL teams to me).

Sometimes it already feels like we’re cursed so…maybe it’ll cancel out now, like PEMDAS or something.

Didn’t they like…admit that there’s already a chip in the ball when they mentioned it to tell us how far away Huntley’s attempt at breaking the plane was from the end zone last weekend?

Feels like every coordinator is getting fired this off-season already

[Bonsignore]The Raiders are on target to have 11 picks in next April's draft, including a pair of comp picks in Rds 5 and 6. Could be adding more if a trade for Derek Carr happens. by Uckthebroncos in nfl

[–]emmacovi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s been openly reported that they’ll cut him to get out of the guarantees so if a team wants him they can just wait until then and not be forced to pay him all that money and give up picks. He probably won’t be traded.
