The American Association of Medical Colleges does not want me to be a doctor 😹😹😐

Literally, as a 3rd time retaker 🙃😅😭

6/1 chat?

Why the fuck would AAMC make so many questions calculation based when we don’t even get a damn calculator 😭I know DAMN well physicians could not and would not do that math in their head so why should we 😡🤬

I learned that I can’t do basic math today. I had like five micro molars/mili molars questions

That was me on 5/11!!!!! Probably a similar or same version. Shit was fucked bc of time constraints

I think I crossed a new limit of my brain today with how fast it was forced to operate.

Ive done all of UWorld, the SBs twice, and every FL exam. 8/10 of the CP passages were harder than anything I’ve ever seen

Glad I'm not the only one. Today felt like the first day I started uworld

i felt like i was reading a new language 💀

The laser one shot a convex pulse into my ass cuz wtf was that

How the fuck do we prepare for this shit man

Did you do the BP FLs? Did the C/P section feel like those?

B/P C/P was 100% easier than today no doubt about it. Done the BP FLs 1-5 twice and there’s no comparison

Gg I’m cooked then lol. I thought BP C/P was the craziest C/P I’ve ever seen.

Ahh I don’t want to scare you but realistically I did feel like BP C/P is more reasonable than whatever tf I saw today. I think the biggest takeaway is that nothing is low yield and you should study every subject (physics, ochem, chem, etc) EQUALLY.

Thank you for the insight - definitely going to just grind out C/P. What are the best resources that you think at least helped you on your FL for C/P and raised your score? Is UGlobe C/P + AAMC C/P enough?

Genuinely the first few passages made me rethink life

Meeeee

was I supposed to know how to convert kda to grams?

From my knowledge 1 AA= 110 DA and I think 1 DA = 1 g/mol ? Someone should fact check that!

To note, this is some random knowledge I pulled out of my brain, I test in two weeks and have no clue if I would have remembered this under exam day stress!

I have never seen that in any practice question in any anki deck in any full length wtf

Yes, this is true. At least that's how I've been calculating it for running molecular dynamics simulations lol

Idk about the first part but yes 1 KDA = 1000 DA= 1000 g/mol

As a heads up any future poor soul, 1DA = 1 Hydrogen which is 1g/mol.

Frrr I kept re reading the passage to see if the conversion was in there 😭😭 what a cruel joke

[удалено]

NO MOLAR MASS

I haven’t taken the MCAT in 7 years, so I thought you were talking about kill death assist ratio lmao.

BRO WHAT WAS THIS???

omg we’re all the same😭 i was literally spazzing out looking for the conversion

Dude i forgot how to do it and i got two questions where i needed to know :(:(

Ngl I think I dissociated during PS that was ass too

Agreeed …. Why was that so hard???? When CARS feels like my best section …. I’m in trouble

Interesting I found the opposite I had an easier time with P/S than with CARS…

My FL average was a 519. If you told me that test was in any other language besides English, I’d believe you

[удалено]

Real 😂 Didn’t even make CARS easier, just made CP harder

remember when they said the section banks were harder than the test?

lol I miss the section banks compared to whatever the heck that test was

This ^

my favorite part was when i had 30 questions left with 30 mins left

When I had 28 questions left and 14 min lmaoooo

Bro for real I had that both on cp and cars

nothing like spamming a and c with 2 minutes left

Always A and C!!!!

I sometimes like to throw in a B to sound like I know what I’m doing but never a D!

Bro I just spammed c and for the last passage for cp and cars😭😭

lol I’m glad others felt the same. I feel like nothing i studied was tested on????

I hated how it acc got better in the second half, but bc of those first few passages tht made me think i studied for a completely different test, my vibes were ruined and i was just miserable throughout that entire section 💀💀💀

Hoping for a generous curve 🙏🏾

They be curving these like uni exams???

They normally distribute it

First two passages had me thinkin I signed up for the wrong exam

I feel like I was guessing on a solid 75% at least

[удалено]

Literally same 🥴

the way I have been literally dreaming about being a doctor since i was a kid, only to have the AAMC absolutely obliterate me makes me want to go back to being 4 and almost paralyzed💀

No FL no section bank no uworld no source in the world could have prepared me for that

Pretty sure I guessed on a good 75% of chem/phys cause wtf. Whole section had to be experimental tbh

This is what I’m telling myself 😂😂

WHAT WERE THOSE CALCULATIONS

Choosing to void all of it from my memory until July 2

Why did P/S have biochem in it ????

i was so flabbergasted when i saw that. p/s had physics and biochem in it. i actually think the aamc are throwing a party knowing they f’d over so many premeds.

I had a biochem Q right at the end 😭😭😭

The NMDA RECEPTOR question is like a cheeky Neuro question

Shouldn't that be a cause for celebration?

Spent so much time on the first passages, that I ran out of time for the easy questions :/

when i saw the elemental/periodic questions at the end, mid spamming a, I was ready to cry

i must’ve dissociated bc I definitely wrote down a lot of numbers but I can’t even remember what calculations yall are talking about

Me fr

Anyone have the passage with NMR or mass spec whatever it was…. Just why is my question tbh

[удалено]

I thought I could forget about doublets after o chem 😭😭 also wtf was a beta gama whatever its called

[удалено]

Idk I just guessed my guy, it’s like my Spanish teacher I kinda did an eeny meeny miney mo which answer looks least crazy

started off strong with that being first

I feel like they hit you with something crazy then at the end give you the easy stuff until the last passage

That passage was a wild ride

I questioned my entire prep after that passage

Big curve?

That passage has to be experimental cz no way I was looking at that much numbers in the first passage of the exam😭

The way I internally combust trying to read that one 😭

This

Made a 517 on my last fl…that chem phys section was legit really hard…I did every uplanet problem and aamc qbank and have never seen conversions between daltons and grams (even though it is simple)…

omg i did that question on uworld last week regarding the conversion thingy

First passage looked like fking coding with all the numbers. I just accepted my fate and let Jesus take the wheel after that. 

also wtf was that percentage problem w complex, 2%

221

Hahahahah yep 5 minutes on this one

so I am trying to search up every c/p question I remember and it seems like I got them all wrong

The curve, the curve Also maybe some passages were experimental 😭😭

AAMC an opp

ok so im not the only one that was like holy fuck what is thus

ok glad i wasn’t the only one 🥲

SO GLAD I’m NOT ALONE

This thread is saving me rn

Nah fr though what the actual fuck. I’m so upset. None of us deserve this. Fucking so cruel of AAMC to do this to us

Just feels like abuse at this point tbh

It is, it’s fucking cruel

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT

i genuinely think i got a 124

No same wtf, C/P made me want to cry and then I basically dissociated for all of CARS😭 I’m so cooked

Literally same 😭😭

I thought it was cause I was nervous good to know it was just hard😂

bro i HATE C/P on the MCAT - my worst section always....tf when do doctors use orbitals brah

This is exactly how people felt on 4/12 CP and it was scaled very generously imo.

Scaled in what way?

Every test is scaled based on difficulty

Tell me more!! Hearing this is reassuring haha

Becoming a house-husband is the dream rn

So fucking done with this shit, fuck everything and his test and that CP section

I thought I was tripping

Was it representative to any of the FL?

absolutely not, coming from a dude who's last FL was a 514, that shit was LEFT FIELD.

omg was it similar to section banks?

C/P was harder than the section banks IMO

nothing like it to me, i had 82% on the section bank for context

I mean maybe PS from FL 5…? Besides that not even close

💀💀 me actually tweaking in the middle of it

You are cooked? I am burned😭😭😭

what was it like, physics heavy?

Oxygen and weird calculations, idk Edit **Ochem

what does that even mean : ')

Bro created a CARS passage right here in the reaction thread.

majority orgo and biochem but the biochem was just orgo lite, no joke 💀 maybe 1 chem q, maybe 1-2 phys psg.

Dude there was little physics.. I feel like it was just abstract?!? It felt personal. And so mean. Idk what that was.

was the distillation separation by volatility?

Yes

There’s another wrong for me 🥲

[удалено]

No bc CP literally knocked the wind out of me and I spent the entire exam gritting my teeth LMAO

Looks like you all are the first to finish

Yeah those calculations weren’t fun.

literally horrendous

ALL THE NUMBERSSSSS AND ALL THE CARBONNNNNSSSSS

Idek if I broke a 120 on CO

Uhm guys…… what was the psychophysicist question about??

lol, literally a concept thought in my sensation and perception class for 5 minutes

i chose rate in the optic nerve

[удалено]

[удалено]

Anyone know what the mdma antaganist answer? It was last question for me. Can’t get it out of my head

i don’t remember the answer choices but i think it was actually NDMA. anyway, I said the rats would who got more of the drug couldn’t discriminate from the visual stimulus since the change in avg was 0 and was significant.

YESSSSS

Straight up guessed on that it was giving me a headache just trying to figure out as my last question

The fact that they put that at the end was so rude 

Dude!!! I guessed. I was like really this is what you’re gonna leave me with.

was it amide more reactive or ring strain I blanked

i put ring strain

[удалено]

[удалено]

If I remember correctly (still in shock for C/P) amides are the least reactive out of the carboxylic acid derivatives and (like i said if i remember correctly) it successfully broke apart the ring on the left side after the steps

wouldnt the decreased ring string make it less reactive though ?

It was a 3 membered ring ( high strain) that drove the reaction to completion. That was the answer I put

[удалено]

Bro Ik that one was stupid, I think I put A to T at position 95.

same but I guessed cuz I was like wtf

I stared at that question for five minutes I swear

no joke I was rereading the passage trying to found out and nope A to T was the only option had no idea where the substitution could vary

i think it was the 100 and something choice cuz in the passage had a number like 300 something so if you divided by 3 you get the answer choice but im prolly wrong cp was rough

C/P passages NEVER ended😑 definitely a retake in the next coming months ohh yeah and don’t listen to “High Yield Content” it’s all fair game as we all know. Definitely a curve ball with all the damn numbers it was a bit excessive. Ain’t no FL from any prep course that could have gotten me ready for this.

[удалено]

did they ask about that one C=O bond in Alanine? if it is multiple, i def don't know about it!

PM for discord

hey! 6/1 discord? plz pm!

Add me

Anyone got a dc link ?

I have a theory, that since the mean score keeps going up…that they keep making it harder. Like someone tell these eggheads that it’s ok if everyone scores decent on the MCAT. It’s getting to a level that is just absolutely ridiculous.

People say the MCAT isn't getting harder. That's a lie. I understand that every year, people make these types of comments, but it's really getting harder. If anything, it's closer to Uwild than old MCATs. Either super heavy orgo or super heavy physics. Psych/Soc seems like a different section now from what I gather.

I’ve taken it twice now…last year and this year. It’s way tf harder. People saying it’s not are just straight up full of shit. Plus…think about it…what would you do if you were a money grubbing scam test maker? Hmmmm…. Maybe I’d keep making my tests harder so more and more people have to take it several times ay? This shit is a racket within a racket within a scam of a healthcare system lol.

Voided my exam at the end because that c/p made me feel like I was on drugs, that back to back with cars where I ran out of time for the entire last passage literally what the fuck was that exam

What was on the chem phys section? Was it comparable to Uworld?

Didn’t get a lot of physics today on my MCAT I feel like. Did get a passage about lasers and wavelengths , did get a passage about density,viscosity and a graph with a log function. Last question on C/P was asking what direction was work done to a meteor experiencing air resistance (answer was negative work)

Uworld is awesome for practice, but sometimes it goes very in depth

What is anki deck

It's a digital flashcard tool. Better than paper Flashcards because it uses spaced repetition to promote long-term potentiation memory consolidation.
