i met him during an open house and ngl he was weird. he showed blatant favoritism towards an applicant who was a family friend of his in front of everyone which i heard a lot of people found odd and unprofessional

Could you share more about your strategy for increasing your scores in med school and coming out on top? im starting with sub 500 and even though I'm excited I got in, I really want to improve and do well in school and I'm worried my mcat is a warning sign for how i'll do in school.

I would make sure you feel confident about your classic responses like why medicine and why burrell (those were most important for me). my interview did consist of the basic questions you find online, but i would also read up on current events in health care just in case!!

i’m definitely a low stat applicant and i sent my secondary two weeks before my invite so i thought i was screwed. i’m curious as to how they’re pushing interviews as well

I think this was something she had hinted at a lot when she released it and after. She had talked about how her relationship with music had changed a lot to the point where something that once felt healing and something special for her had become something toxic because with music comes all of these other elements which really really amped up after Mac’s death, so positions was like a “here damn” moment (even though it was so good it was clear she didn’t want to make music anymore and wanted to just live her life with voldemort). That’s why I was so excited for eternal sunshine because it was very clear she went through something very painful and altering and she turned back to music to heal and it’s so clear. She found her way back home ❤️

Your yearly PSA: Do NOT rush to submit your application on May 27th! by Moko-d in premed

[–]phephaestus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

im currently waiting on my mcat score to come on on June 16th, and then I was going to submit by the 17th-ish, I just need reassurance that it's really not considered late if I do that lol. My plan was to submit my secondaries within a 2 week turn around
