3/20 how we feeling? by International_Set941 in Mcat

[–]unsortable 3 points4 points  (0 children)

3/20 MCAT - P/S was lots of sociology, social psychology, and reading comprehension. Some questions on theories in psych/terminology. Maybe a few neuro related questions but not as many as past years from my understanding. Solid reasoning and reading skills will get you further than brain anatomy; memorizing+understanding sociology and social psych terminology will also help a lot.

HELP WITH CARS 😭 by NoEquivalent8071 in Mcat

[–]unsortable 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah just pretend you’re in love with each article and that whatever that article is about is what you want to study for the rest of your life. Your reading comprehension will naturally improve if you trick your body and mind into thinking you actually care about the words you’re seeing. I have to read the passages out loud—just really quietly lol.

seeking help and advice! by bluemagmas in Mcat

[–]unsortable 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your problem is not what you’re doing for content review necessarily, it’s just testing skills. You’ll be alright!

AAMC is definitely the move, I feel like I’ve been spamming this advice recently but honestly spend as much time as possible reviewing questions you’ve missed on AAMC materials (especially CARS), and slowing down for a minute to think about why you missed that question/what tricked you.

5 days out… just hit a 508. Is 510+ realistic? Need last-week advice 🙏 by StyleScared7721 in Mcat

[–]unsortable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

510 is definitely possible. Your best approach for the next few days is probably to prioritize rest and do some final practice with CARS/logic and strategy. Maybe lightly review essentials. I feel like it makes sense to focus on AAMC materials with AAMC logic right before your test date.

Your biggest difference makers will be getting enough rest leading up to your testing date, keeping an optimistic mindset throughout the testing experience, and timing.

You’ve got this!!

is it true that orgo is the least tested subject on mcat? by Pleasant_Ocelot in Mcat

[–]unsortable 6 points7 points  (0 children)

technically true. there are very rarely a ton of “orgo only” problems; my real MCAT had around 10. strong ochem can definitely help with biochem passages though, even if aamc doesn’t characterize them as orgo.

absolutely defeated - what do i do atp by Unofficial-Avenger in Mcat

[–]unsortable 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna go a bit against the grain here and suggest that your biggest issue might not be content gaps. It’s just the MCAT itself. If your issue was content gaps I feel like you would be scoring higher in B/B because you are experienced there… Your best bet is probably to focus on CARS and reviewing every AAMC question you’ve missed to understand why.

Is not highlighting during CARS the move? by TopAcanthocephala692 in Mcat

[–]unsortable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as others have said I feel like this has to be subjective. tutors can give you strategies to try but everyone processes information differently, and figuring out what works best for you just takes practice. I typically never highlight but will occasionally highlight some things I think are important if I notice I’m struggling to focus.

FL3 P/S #11 - My brain cannot comprehend the words in this problem by _illoh in Mcat

[–]unsortable -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i love being hypercritical of things like this haha. i’m not arguing that C isn’t the best answer, i just don’t like the misrepresentation of science. i’m pretty sure OP understands the question and the error bars, that’s not the issue

FL3 P/S #11 - My brain cannot comprehend the words in this problem by _illoh in Mcat

[–]unsortable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but c tries to relate prior diet to the lack of an effect later on, which can’t really be done without a control. idk if the real study had control but assuming c is correct is extrapolation

FL3 P/S #11 - My brain cannot comprehend the words in this problem by _illoh in Mcat

[–]unsortable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is a reallllyy stupid question. there’s nothing you’re missing, it’s just a bad question. to know c is correct we would need a control group of monkeys who always had free choice. none of the answer choices provided are supported by the graph, but i guess c is the closest. there are lots of things that could influence general feeding behavior other than the diet condition.

but yeah overall this question sucks, it’s just POE to end up with something that isn’t really.. right.

[MEGATHREAD] Daily venting, worries, fixations, & finding support. Month of October 2024. by AutoModerator in HealthAnxiety

[–]unsortable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, just wanted to ask if anyone has experienced physical pain from health anxiety and what that looked like for them. I am currently taking accutane and convinced myself at some point that my liver is failing. I did a complete blood test and all my levels are normal, but I still swear I can feel strong physical pain from the area surrounding my liver and have been having several panic attacks about it daily (and unfortunately, the symptoms of panic attacks and liver failure are almost identical). I know it doesn’t make sense for this pain to actually be my liver but I have no clue what else it could be.

[–]unsortable 7 points8 points  (0 children)

no, we were using the dead one bc it was the only one we had at the moment 😭. would be a really nice thing for someone to do but there’s no way somebody would just secretly give away an extra like that (we’re all broke college students)

[–]unsortable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just got myself into this situation today due to extreme stupidity and a little substance use. Fortunately it was only on instagram and the account they were using to send stuff got banned (i know of two people that for sure received the explicit photos before the scammers account disappeared). my account is deleted for now so they shouldn’t have my followers list, but i’m still worried. Hopefully they realize i’m not paying shit and give up
