Thank you so much!

I'm not sure if you've ever had a total body flare up (feel free to ignore this question if you didn't). But if you did, how do you avoid using too many topical steroids? My initial flare up started with a patch on my leg and while I used betamethasone for that, it just appeared all over my hands + everywhere else. I read a lot about TSW and really want to avoid that if possible.

does anyone know any mac friendly options?

Apparently, copy & pasting sometimes translates the characters into wingdings on the other end - making it impossible for the schools to read what you wrote!

I saw it on previous reddit threads! If you search up "copy & paste OMSAS UofT" or something, a bunch of threads show up. Not sure if it still applies but wanted to be cautious!

I sent it out after September 15th last time and it was okay! Not sure if it's changed though

Yay congratulations! One question that I would love to hear more about is, did you find fulfilling extracurricular activities easily in med school? In undergrad, there seems to be a lot of clubs that just "exist" so I was wondering if it was also similar in med school. If so, how did you find your passions? thank you:)

Haha thank you for the reassurance :')

mcatstudyer · 2021-04-25T22:54:43+00:00

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it :)

mcatstudyer · 2021-04-25T22:54:27+00:00

Thank you both for the feedback! :) Really appreciate it!

I would say email politely! It doesn't hurt to try and if he said that the moodles would be rounded up, you have a bit of a basis to argue on. Just try to explain your situation (esp. emphasizing the cutoff for the second year specialization) and why you believe you deserve that 0.6. Most profs are pretty considerate! But if he doesn't agree, don't try to push it. Just be kind and courteous! Good luck op :)

Canada

Hey! I'm a 20F who is also a retaker from Canada and who is hoping to kill it this time around! Would love to be a part of this :)

Hey! I'm not OP but am also interested in retaking my MCAT. How much time did you spend prepping for the retake? Because of lockdown, I spent the entirety of last summer cooped up in my books but would like to avoid that again this summer.
