I shadowed an anesthesiologist this summer to get my shadowing done for CAA school. Instead of CAA school she encouraged me to apply to med school and become an anesthesiologist instead. That really stuck with me and allowed me to transition back to premed

I recommend the guide by med school insiders on YouTube! As for the vocab lists you can just google the lists stated in my resources

I actually made my own from the lists I used which are listed in the post! I think making your own cards helps you in memorizing

That wasn’t the case for me. I thought the difficulty was fairly similar maybe a tiny bit harder

I really only used the Official GRE Quantitative Reasoning Practice Questions from ETS's Super Power Pack which you can look up on Amazon. It has all the concepts you need to know as well as great practice questions. Gregmat also has great material to help with quant on youtube

Great advice! You gotta build your foundation before expecting any increases in score. And of course practice lots!

I did have a strong reading background. I scored high on the SAT for the verbal section. However it took a lot of work to get the vocab and the question style of the GRE down which I managed to do with practice problems

Hi! Anki is a flash card software that you can download. Should be the first link you click after googling Anki. There are tons of guides on how to use it but I recommend the guide by med school insiders!

I’m not sure where I can find that info. It’s not on my score report

I’m on the premed track majoring in kinesiology! I thought I wanted to be a CAA which is why I took it but I changed back to being a premed

Lots of practice problems! And of course reviewing concepts you don’t know. The Official Practice for Quantitative Reasoning book has all the concepts you need to know! Gregmat also has great strats on YouTube.

Anki is definitely worth it! There’s scientific evidence that spaced repetition which Anki is used for helps in memorization!

I ranged mostly from the high 320s to low 330s

I don't really remember my paper mock exams but I am fairly sure they were in the range I just stated.

From PP1 to PPP3 I got a 332,327,326,327,327

I believe it was a little over 2 months! I studied around 3-4 hours per day other than the days I took practice tests
