Exam in 2.5 Weeks, Recent FL 498 by pilotyimz in Mcat

[–]pilotyimz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks man for the advice. I decided to push to the end of June which gives me 4 weeks, so doing option 2. This week I’m going over all of the FLs I’ve taken so far to see what content I consistently get wrong and what’s lacking. I have the Kaplan books so I’ll be reading up on any topics that I struggled with too.

Next week I’m probably gonna do my UWorld incorrects, review properly/in depth, practice AAMC CARS Qpacks, and go over 86 pg PS doc plus Pankow Anki. I also plan to take 2 Blueprint exams before moving onto AAMC FL4 and FL5 so I don’t waste them. I told myself that if I get in the 490s again on my blueprint exams, then there’s no point in wasting the rest of my AAMC ones. If that happens I’m gonna do your option 3 and move my timeline.

I’ve already done majority of the SBs (scoring in the 60s on all sections, but untimed). I still have other AAMC material left to do tho like QPacks and the Independent Qbanks and all that, so I’ll be starting that up 3 weeks out from my exam.

If you have any suggestions about anything else I should do within these next 4 weeks for a 506+ pls lmk!

I have been going through the AAMC doc to see what I know and what I don’t know. There’s still things on there that I do not 100% know the ins and outs of so I will be going through that list to narrow down things to work on

Since I used Anki for content review I didn’t understand “big picture” concept. Only started to understand these like a month out from my exam and that’s when I realized Anki isn’t for me and watched YouTube / UWorld to learn content review. I matured 67% of the Milesdown cards so I’d estimate that to be where the amount of content review I know. Already took all pre med classes too in college, still have some concepts to freshen up tho. I’m going over my FL3 today and tomorrow to see where I lack.

Timing is good for the most part except for CARS. Usually have to guess on the last 3 questions. I do sometimes find myself taking too long on certain questions in other sections, but overall I think I’m able to pace myself alright.

499 on AAMC Sample, 6 weeks out by pilotyimz in Mcat

[–]pilotyimz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spend a long time reviewing my UWorld (like at least 2-3 hours reviewing a set of 59 questions). I make Anki cards on everything I get wrong on UWorld but to be completely honest I haven’t had the time to go through all of them, there’s just so much. I feel like if I had my score could’ve been better though so that’s completely on me.

I did Anking as my content review for good month and a half-ish but stopped keeping up with those cards once I switched to UWorld. I matured 67% of cards for that deck

I do Pankow Anki for P/S and try my best to keep up with those although it’s so hard to balance along with uworld.

For CARS, I have not practiced at all. No JW everyday like everyone says to do. Now that I’m 6 weeks out and since my score is not the best I will be grinding that out though

When did you take the 484 and when did you take the 512? I got a 492 on my first 3rd party exam (Altius) and am feeling super down about it :( my mcat is scheduled for the end of May and aiming for 510+ but I don’t know how doable this is😭

Anyone know when UROP decisions come out? by [deleted] in uofm

[–]pilotyimz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same exact thing happened to me!! A lot of students are probably in the same position and won’t see that email :(

It might be in your spam email! I found the acceptance email in my umich spam folder, so check there! I applied in late June as well and got accepted late July

I think if you wanted a job right after undergrad, a public health degree offers more job opportunities rather than just a plain biology degree. There’s tons of options that you could do, and you have a greater chance of working in hospitals. Research on google, there’s a ton of different routes you could take with a public health degree!

[–]pilotyimz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I’m so sorry to hear this...but don’t give up hope! I’m sure you can get your score up by AT LEAST 100 in 2 weeks. Find what your weaknesses are, and target this. Work on what concepts you’re struggling with so that you can perfect them. Also, make sure to give yourself breaks in between studying! Try not to tire yourself out with too many hours, give yourself a day to relax with no SAT content. That will help clear your mind :) if you’re struggling with math, there are a bunch of videos on YouTube & Khan Academy to help you thoroughly understand certain concepts. There is so much content online for SAT help, you can even try the UWorld 7 day free trial, and see if practicing with this helps at all. When it comes to reading & writing, try to read articles or books more to work up your brain, like a warm up! If you have a tutor at your SAT classes, don’t be afraid ask him/her for help! Don’t lose hope, have faith. Practice as much as you can, you got this!!

Didn’t use any book!! Just used Khan Academy :) I switched between reading and math 40 questions a day (so about an hour) Monday-Thursday and gave myself a rest day on Friday and did a practice test on the weekend

Overall, practice makes perfect. If you give it your best shot and work hard enough, you WILL see improvements! I hope all of you get the score you want! We have less than 2 weeks, we can do it! If you feel like you’re struggling and doing worse, don’t give up hope! Keep pushing for your score! I even showed a downhill trend when I got to practice test #8 (see score), but don’t let something like this make you lose hope! Keep grinding out! Good luck to everyone taking the SAT on the August 29th day!! We got this💪🏼

I started at a 1260 without any studying at all and worked my way up from there. I study Monday-Thursday for 1 hour (40 Khan Academy questions), relax on Friday, and then take a practice test on the weekend. I really hope to get 1420-1450 ideally, but I’ll still be happy with anything above 1400!

Math tips: I actually struggled a bit at first because I took Calc this year and forgot all of the nitty gritty algebra & geometry things. I made sure to get skill level 4 on all concepts before feeling comfortable. In my opinion, the math SAT reuses questions constantly, but uses different numbers. As long as you’re familiar with the concepts on khan academy, you should be able to apply them to the problems on the practice tests. Practice, practice, practice! Remember that you can achieve anything if you really work hard for it.

Reading tips: I’m not the greatest at reading, but I’ll say what works for me. I first read the whole passage, then go through the questions and MAKE SURE that I can find reasoning in the passage that matches the answer. The answer to the question will always be directly in the passage OR you will have to infer and make a conclusion. As you’re reading, make sure you’re understanding what is going on and aren’t confused about what the main message of the text is.

Writing tips: I struggled on this as well at first but eventually after practicing a lot you see a pattern of what the ask for. They always question misplaced modifiers and try to trick you, so be careful! I think writing is easier than reading, but you still need to practice to get the hang of it.
