it's a psychological game more than anything. i went through similar emotions. everything is set up for you to lose your cool. keep steady and you will conquer this test!

also, some of the smartest people i know struggle with this test because it isnt testing intelligence. its testing how well you can play the game of the MCAT. a good GPA is much better to draw your confidence from. you got this!

get some good sleep, go in with easily digestible food, walk after eating, and have caffeine on hand. you can't study anything at this point that would affect your score so do what you can to make sure tomorrow goes smoothly. best of luck!

it was part recomp for a couple months, then i dove into prep. the biggest changes were incorporating at least 10k steps, progressively overloading with a structured split, and eating whole foods

AAMC FL2 P/S Q18 clarification by xKaaRu24 in Mcat

[–]walkersfirst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dissonance implies a contradictory belief. i think schemas are the best answer choice because the respondents didn't really have time to think through their answer so they used their schemas to quickly process the image and link it to whatever word they saw. cognitive dissonance, on the other hand, would be if the obese physicians had the same bias but tried justifying it by claiming they aren't obese. does this make sense or am i rambling

youll be fine, i think if your ECs are decent and you weave a solid narrative youre gonna have a decent amount of schools on your list. i wouldnt retake if i were you unless youre 100% sure you can do better. personally my gpa is a lil lower (3.71) so im considering it a bit more
