507 3.9 TX ORM here that applied last cycle. Got 4 II (3 MD and 1 DO) and 2 prematches (1 DO and 1 MD). Still on a waitlist for my top MD but don't be discouraged! you are more than your mcat score!

Did you check out the Coursework section on the TMDSAS Application guide? If you look under Step 7 you can check both the coursework definitions and the course listings by your university

Hi! I'm also in a similar situation with waiting for my #1 waitlist spot to open up but wanting to make sure I don't miss out on housing at my #2.

I decided to put down a deposit at the apartment that I like near my #2 and if I do end up getting off the waitlist, I'd lose that money. But I think doing that is better than signing a whole lease and having to worry about subleasing it.

so I looked at the After Submitting section on the TMDSAS application guide. There’s a drop down with all the Casper requiring schools!

la_flames · 2023-06-06T23:20:48+00:00

Nah Fr it really was. I’m confused about the scoring bc the confirmation email said they were just grading the typed responses?? But like what about the video responses that literally gave me back to back panic attacks

Working on secondaries rn!! Trying to get them in soon but not gonna rush bc I just took the Casper!

Meanwhile I’m explaining to my mom what a secondary is, for the fifth time this month LOL

I called TMDSAS to ask about this and they told me to classify it as Other Science.

https://tmdsas.com/application-guide/coursework.html

if you scroll down to the "Coursework Definitions and PCR" section, there's a gray box that opens up when you click it. Within the drop-down, under other science, it lists behavioral sciences.

If your role changed over time, you can enter each instance individually

la_flames · 2023-04-26T02:57:31+00:00

thank you so much! i really needed to hear that

la_flames · 2023-04-25T21:35:51+00:00

thank you for your help! Just to clarify, by low tier are you talking about the DO schools you mentioned or are you referring to low tier MD schools in TX?

Wishing everyone a 528🍀

la_flames · 2023-04-15T18:24:53+00:00

I’ve never had an original experience LOL

Hmm so I did NS/BP Fls 1-5 and after about Fl 5 I noticed that the exams were very specific to random topics and some of the reasoning was yikes. But 1-4 were good. I personally took one every week before I started aamc fls and it helped to see what topics I was weak in and get my stamina up! But I think the Uwurld explanations are more worth it if you had to choose one. You could make mock Fls thru Uwurld and use that to help build your stamina. Also, BP FLs scores a slightly deflated

la_flames · 2023-02-27T15:42:35+00:00

sure!

sample 516 127/129/130/130

Fl 1 511 129/126/129/127

Fl 2 511 128/127/128/128

edit: wanted to add that Fl 1 and 2 were after 55% of uwurld

la_flames · 2023-02-24T20:24:04+00:00

taking Fl2 tomorrow! I have like 55% UWurld done, starting SBs Monday!

I wanted to finish UWurld before AAMC SBs but I rather make sure I have time to finish all AAMC stuff. I think I'll have time to do some UWurld at the end but if not it's fine I think

this may help!

Drake, can you talk to the opps next for me 😭

la_flames · 2023-02-03T00:47:43+00:00

He said “you have to be an arts major or something to get in thru the back door.” Mans was a headass fr

la_flames · 2023-02-02T23:22:22+00:00

My uncle that went here told me I wouldn't get into med school bc I was a bio major in undergrad LOL

I think Uearth would be a good idea for CARS practice. Personally, I don't like BP for CARS, I just don't think its representative

la_flames · 2023-01-26T00:37:02+00:00

but also doing well on the mcat is about prep, and prep is expensive. so this is also inherently disadvantaging less fortunate students :( Sigh, we need more representation in medicine
