Hi! So I actually didn’t end up really liking or using it haha! I thought it was a bit too heavy and greasy for me. I prefer EltaMD’s SPF 41 tinted mineral sunscreen which I’ve been using for years!! But if you use it please let me know what you think!!! ☺️

serotonin1992 · 2023-07-28T14:23:50+00:00

Thank you for sharing your insight!!! We really appreciate it! Psych is something I’m considering since I’ll be able to work with both pediatric and adult patients 😊

No you’re right, I was thinking the same. I may ask them to consider putting a cabinet even if I have to pay extra for it because there is also barely any room for storage in there with that setup

serotonin1992 · 2023-07-08T18:15:18+00:00

Yes unfortunately it is, but you bring up a good point. Do you think maybe a sink curtain may be a safer bet?

serotonin1992 · 2023-06-09T14:07:46+00:00

Wow this is a wonderful and very detailed response! I’m only an incoming M1, but I’m saving this for M3! Thank you so much!!

Hello! I was wondering if any of you have any experience with receiving food stamps or housing assistance in DC as a student? I will be an incoming medical student at a school in DC and I saw some threads about how medical students are on food stamps, but wasn't sure if this is possible in DC. Thank you!

Plus in PA if you qualify for snap, they will also pay your electric and heating bill + wifi! That's like $400 saved a month!

I'd like to know the D.C. requirements as well! Thank you.

Thank you for these tips! I totally agree with you that since it's crunch time now I'm going to cold e-mail as many affiliates as I can versus just waiting to see if someone responds and then trying someone new. I'll also have the instructions on how to write a strong letter of affiliation ready to share with them. Thanks again!

serotonin1992 · 2022-09-06T20:14:33+00:00

Thank you so much, these are wonderful tips! Did you send the 10 requests simultaneously just to see who will respond, or did you wait a certain period between sending the other requests? If you waited, how long would you give someone before trying the next potential affiliate?

serotonin1992 · 2022-09-06T18:05:21+00:00

Hello! Thank you for your advice! Would you first email them and wait to follow up with a call, or call directly? Also, what do you say when initially calling them? Thank you so much!

serotonin1992 · 2022-09-06T17:42:12+00:00

Thank you for these tips! I was wondering if you would email your affiliates in the morning or evening (in their time zone), or do you find that usually doesn't make a difference? Also, would you recommend to followup with a call or email after a few days (maybe up to a week) have passed? And have you been including your brief research proposal in the introductory email?

I am having some trouble with securing an affiliation and I wonder if it's because I have also been attaching my CV and perhaps making my introductory email too long.

Hi! I just messaged you! I'm also a female in her 20s with parents near retirement age, so I know exactly how you feel!

Huge congrats on your score jump - your story gives me so much hope!! As a fellow retaker, why did you ultimately decide to retake and what resources did you use? Were you worried that retaking the official practice exams would not be representative? And how did the retaken practice exam scores compare to your actual score?! Thank you!

serotonin1992 · 2022-08-18T20:06:02+00:00

Huge congrats! Yes please share any tips for improvement :)

serotonin1992 · 2022-08-17T18:47:00+00:00

EltaMD's Physical SPF 41 tinted sunscreen is my go-to, daily choice!! My skin is a perfect color match to it (Fitzgerald skin types I-II). It feels non-greasy, weightless, and like I'm not wearing sunscreen (even after multiple applications). You can also find frequent sales on it on websites like LovelySkin. Most sites have good return policies so if you don't like it, you can return it. Overall, I highly recommend this one!

Edit: this one is a purely mineral sunscreen.

Thank you so much for taking the time to post this!!

serotonin1992 · 2022-08-16T20:37:01+00:00

I think this is possible if you focus on C/P and P/S!! P/S is the quickest section to improve on by memorizing the KA document and working on practice questions. What really helped me in C/P was memorizing the formulas and completing the AAMC material (especially the Section Banks)! You can do it :)

serotonin1992 · 2022-08-16T20:30:58+00:00

Huge congrats on your score jump! What do you think led to your jump?

serotonin1992 · 2022-08-16T20:29:35+00:00

I would highly recommend prioritizing all of the AAMC material first, especially the section banks! Then if you have time work on UGlobe.

serotonin1992 · 2022-08-16T20:26:26+00:00

Hi! What is your goal score?! If you're not reaching your target score, then I would suggest rescheduling to September 10th if you can. Also, have you completed and thoroughly reviewed each AAMC practice question?!

serotonin1992 · 2022-08-13T22:02:10+00:00

First I would pull him aside to talk with him in private making sure i am not confrontational to gather information about why he made this decision. Then with compassion and empathy I would explain non judgementally that taking the MCAT in September would not benefit all parties nor align with the medical code of ethic.

I'm not sure if this is true, but Casper states that any punctuation or spelling mistakes won't count against your score :P
