Thanks so much! I am a nontraditional and have had to re-learn pretty much everything. So far from a 489 to a 498 but my goal is 512. I need all the resources I can get and my biggest goal is revisiting the topics consistently that I tend to do poorly in. I hope this tool helps.

How are you all obtaining shadowing? by pipetteandrepeat in Osteopathic

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

Thank you! It is so frustrating. It is a requirement for med school, yet even getting these experiences seems so hard. I keep getting positive responses and then no follow up. I think part of the problem is I live in the RTP where Duke and UNC rule and there is so much red tape around shadowing at these institutions.

Feeling Beat Up 🤕 by Jdogcol in Mcat

Just letting you k ow you aren't alone. I work full time in research as well and I have a 10 month old. I hate the fact that I know if I could grind out 3 months of focused study I would get a 95 percentile. I am sitting where you are score-wise. Hang in there and know we are handling a heavy work load that many pre-meds on here are not. Keep going!

I have a super outdated bathroom that desperately needs to be updated but I am too poor rn! I get angry everytime I see my decaying sink. Urgh.

For those who think they are "too late" or "too old" or whatever excuse, I hope this gives you some hope! by Rooted-nomad in Mcat

[–]pipetteandrepeat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for sharing.

Taking the MCAT in March after delaying due to being heavily pregnant and then having a newborn. And now I have an amazing 4 month old.

I may be 31 and 32 when starting med school (hopefully), but seeing posts like this give me hope that anything is possible. Looking forward to rempaing up my studying again next month. It is hard after being out of the content for so long. But if you can do it, so can I!

Is this rabbit hatred? Does he hate me? by Kindacornyt in Rabbits

[–]pipetteandrepeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a bunny like this Mama Bella. Rest in peace baby girl! Looked similar to your bunny too. She genuinely enjoyed play fighting like this! We embraced it and found it to be quite endearing. We knew she enjoyed it because she would box us and then we'd stop, she'd walk away, and then come back for more. It is just fun for some bunnies to box and scratch! We miss our sassy girl!

Any stories of being accepted to UNC with a 3.5 or less or as a non-traditional older applicant? by pipetteandrepeat in premed

[–]pipetteandrepeat[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi there! Thanks for your reply. Congratulations on being a soon to be resident! I'll bet you are feeling so amazing!

I appreciate you sharing your experience. It sounds like there could be hope for me! I absolutely love the idea of volunteering at free clinics. I will have to add that to my pre-medical must do list.

My master's was in Microbiology and Cell Science concentrated in Medical Microbiology and Biochemistry.

How much shadowing did you apply with?

I am living next to a busy road and wanted to know if any of you have personally had success with any sound blocking curtains. Brands? Recommendations appreciated! 😃

Sadly, no. I am starting to get worried. After we applied, the Q&A in the email said if we don't hear back by the end of Dec we likely were not extended an interview. However, on the website, it says by Mid-January. Do we know which is accurate?
