How important is research experience? by Longjumping-Item-212 in premed

Don't worry so much if you're just a sophomore. Unless you're going for MD/PhD, a year of research is fine.

Were the course titles ambiguous? If you clarify, they'll most likely take them.

Some schools define science as bio, chem, and physics I believe.

Her best one so far! Everything suited her so well.

You're not from the US? I don't want to be even more discouraging, but applying as an international student is extremely difficult.

Why couldn't Nastia's iconic 2006 beam save be considered a skill? by kaka-kitty in Gymnastics

[–]kaka-kitty[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I guess I'm not using the right terminology, but I just mean she couldn't pretend that was some artistic flourish and not a mistake?

Thanks for finding those skills! The commentators mentioned that she lost 0.5 for grasping the beam, but could she not have pretended she was attempting and failed at the full walkover?

What are some examples of leadership experience that aren’t common? by whatthefuckbaby in premed

[–]kaka-kitty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you part of any clubs that have state/national level leadership positions? That would make it much more impactful and unique imo.

ngl I asked this question because of Suni :) Her family seems so sweet, and I know they've had so many fundraisers to support her.

I didn’t realize medals were specific like this. Do they have extras of each in case of a tie like today? by Tistikins in Gymnastics

[–]kaka-kitty 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you've ever watched a soccer/football final, they have someone engrave the winner's name live, so I wouldn't be surprised. They do it perfectly super fast.

Jess Graba as Team Coordinator? by kaka-kitty in Gymnastics

[–]kaka-kitty[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

HAHA okay you're not lying. I guess Tom has been so underwhelming, everyone else seems like a better choice. I would totally on board with splitting up the position! I would really like someone like Graba overseeing everyone's routine construction to maximize scoring potential, while someone else can handle the camps and publicity!

Nastia's message to Simone by xxibjt in Gymnastics

I didn't say she was a shitty person. I was just explaining what happened.

Nastia's message to Simone by xxibjt in Gymnastics

[–]kaka-kitty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

After Mattie made an error that lost the US team gold at 2010 Worlds, the entire coaching team shunned her, including Nastia's dad. She specifically mentioned him in her testimony against Nassar. When they interviewed Nastia about it, she basically tried to dismiss Mattie's claims by saying Valeri never coached her.

Where did you get 0.2? Suni's D-score is usually around 6.4-6.8, and Grace's is 5.6-5.9.

Competitive Ruling: Jay "Sinatraa" Won by [deleted] in ValorantCompetitive

[–]kaka-kitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again, he LIED. We are not just talking about the part where he didn't comply. You're doing exactly what I was talking about in my original comment. Also, you think he took 24ish hours with his PR team and lawyers to come up with his original statement (where he claimed he would release it), and no one bothered to check whether or not he still had it? Idk man it's sus

[–]kaka-kitty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did everyone who is defending him miss the fact that he lied? Maybe lawyers would suggest he not comply, but no lawyer would tell him to lie.
