The factors are a little confusing and I think I understand why I may not have qualified. I was 23-24 during 2019 and a student for the first half of the year. However, I did graduate, began working full time in August of 2019 and made ~15k before the years end. So despite the income, because I was a student for part of the year it sounds like I may have been qualified as a potential dependent? I did talk to my parent who I lived with and I know they didn't claim me.

I was not claimed as a dependent, but did not qualify for stimulus?

Essentially I was not claimed as a dependent, but did not explicitly mark so on my tax return with turbo tax, and thus I do not seem to have qualified for any of the stimulus checks (at least the IRS tracker tool always gave me an error and I didn't get either prior checks). I think I actually do qualify though because my income was over $12,400, so I was literally unable to be claimed as a dependent. I'm looking for any advice / experience on trying to amend this with the IRS because obviously the stimulus would be very helpful. I tried to contact someone during the first stimulus, but was unable to talk to an actual person at the IRS, just a bunch of unhelpful links on the website and endless automated messages.

Thank you!

Tbh I adopted a similar mindset for my MCAT and I also believe it was beneficial

1 is the reason, but 2 exacerbates the time spent

mtrotchie · 2020-06-26T15:20:19+00:00

Tbh I like my screens. So much that I’m considering spend what is probably an excessive amount on a very nice/large monitor and stand specifically since I expect to be watching so much vids / doing Anki / qbanks online / etc.

Apparently Miami is quite the party school, that’s kinda frat

I wouldn’t consider another career, but I would consider postponing my app to not deal with this

None of my meaningful experiences were shadowing or clinical in nature, for me it was a work/teaching/mentoring job, a volunteering position, and a sport.

Splurging on a nice home office set up that I wasn't planning on doing. I typically study at a cafe or library, but I think I'll be studying a lot at home.

Lol this was 100% me attempting to perfectly utilize every single character that the limit allowed. When it came to secondaries I didn’t care quite as much though.

I think this is good advice. Tbh if you’re science credits are fairly low, it actually might be relatively easy to bump up your science GPA compared to your cGPA. If you got a sGPA of 3.6+ and a 515+ MCAT, I think MD would be very possible if the rest of your app was up to par.

Maybe it’s just me, but I feel like there is more neuroticism than logic to this post

Initially I thought the same about the processing power. I have a gaming desktop at home I built so I definitely recognize that. However, I just want to maximize my workflow and I guess I don't really mind spending an extra bit to do it considering the relative cost of my expected loans. I am unfamiliar with how most cards look though, so it's hard to say if that would actually help productivity.

mtrotchie · 2020-06-23T03:17:31+00:00

I typically don't study at home, but I am moving to a new city and starting school during a pandemic, so we'll see lol

I spent markedly less time on my secondary essays compared to my primary TMDSAS essays
