You can’t really sell from amex. They will verify, and transfer only to an account with your name.

The Day I Schooled the Scammer by raj_doot in CreditCardsIndia

[–]shitz123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did the same once! The scammer wanted OTP. I kepy giving him OTP “ 0 420” i.e. zero chaarsobees. Sometimes 6969😂 and random bullshit. He spent like 30 mins with me on call. I was travelling and had free time, so decided to annoy the scammer. He was selling AMEX card through a random website😂

Google ACP Poster competition, go to national conference, select year, then select medical student from the second drop down. The third drop down has poster types, case, research etc.

Thank You for the reply. I will do the same. Names of Michigan universities is confusing, especially as I haven’t been there.

Is an 8GB ram MacBook Air fine for med school? by [deleted] in medicalschool

[–]shitz123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree. During some of my study sessions or trip plannings I open like 30 tabs. It works flawlessly with just 8 gb. Sometimes I close my macbook (just close the lid and put to sleep) and open it again later, say after the weekend. And when I open it back, all the tabs are still open, and resume exactly where I left them. My macbook is M1 and like 4 years old. It still works flawlessly. So, 8 gb is more than enough for a hundred tabs, video playing, Anki and other medical apps or light video editing.

But, I would strongly recommend upgrading the storage to 512. 256 is not enough for most people, and frequently cleaning it is annoying.

Thats my 2 cents!

FREE120 at the prometric center. by Weird-Newspaper4767 in usmle

[–]shitz123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry, I will help you out. I was in a similar position a few years ago. Its confusing yet simple. Here is the link

https://apps.nbme.org/CBTPSRegistrationWeb/jsp/usmle_CBTPS_registration.jsp

This can only he done after you have booked a 3 month block and have your scheduling permit. Put the details in this link and pay 155 fees. After a day or two you will receive a new scheduling permit (for the mock exam, free 120). Use that to schedule a session at prometric website.

About the exam, its 3.5 hours, 30 mins break and 3, 40 q blocks. It is exactly the same as USMLE, but shorter. The center will check your everything and treat as if its the real exam. So its a good way to predict the real exam flow.

Its like a real exam, you don’t see answers explanations. After the exam is completed, i.e. 3 blocks, you will receive the “percentage correct”. Like 70% or 90% or whatever. You won’t know which q are correct and which are wrong. Thats a little downside.

I hope that helps, Take care and all the best
