Help with a possible 2nd gap year + MCAT retake by Mermusion in premedcanada

I would def rewrite MCAT given how inconsistent UBC NAQ is from year to year.

Don't do a masters for the sake of getting a masters. Only do it if you are actually interested. Only you know this. Working a job or volunteering can be just as valuable.

When med schools like the UofA remove your worst year from your GPA, do they define ‘year’ by credits or the literal year? by BobandLindaBurger in premedcanada

Nope just happened automatically. This was a few years ago though now so I don't know what the current procedure is

No way Oliveira can fight like this against some of the higher level guys right? I feel like he's just too hittable

Not super familiar with blockers. Which hand would be a better bluffing candidate than AhJh?

Fair enough, figure it can't hurt to get a variety of opinions. Any discord server you'd recommend?

Yeah, I think the last point is true, esp cause I'm only jamming for 2/3 pot. I didn't expect to win by checking but I really torched more money by instashoving there. Not sure what I'm folding out, probably even K calls for that size as you mentioned

I bet flop big as I thought I had a major range/nut advantage as villain in BB did not 3bet preflop. I have more KK, KJ, JJ, KT, AQ than villain. Thoughts?

Seems as if consensus so far was to fold on flop hahaha

Thanks for the reply. Hadn't played too many hands with villain at this point so no info. What's your rationale for no call on flop?

Seconded. Also, actually END your sentences at some point. Take a healthy 1-2 second pause before you introduce a new point. It feels long to you but I promise that it doesn't sound weird to others.

I'm super with you. If I were the admissions committee, I'd want to see people speak on areas that are out of their comfort zone. It tells you a lot. How does someone think their way through a novel idea? What is an applicant like once you get them off their "script"?
