This is something you'll do once a month, tops. Way less after you get puke on your shoes on the last drunk train back.

Hey guys I am not verified yet but still trying to write my essays , the prompts say that it should be one page long is this single or double space?

Nobody knows. Just go with how long you think is concise yet sufficient.

Thank you. I thought there was some sort of program that cuts off excess words that would match one page single spaced or double spaced. But thank you for settling my concerns

 

[kingofthecourt]

Does anyone know if they prefer the new or old MCAT? I know AAMC mentioned that they prefer the new one, but I'm not sure if that holds any value. Did anyone with an II take the old exam?

Ok seriously how the **** do you have 22 II with a LizzyM of 64? lol

 

[161MD]

:/

Not a very positive thing to say.
We are all more than our numbers, you have no idea what he / she has gone through to get to this point!

Anyways, they can only attend one school so rest assured that they cannot take up all 22 spots by themselves heh

-edit-
Also congrats doctorbob, you're continuing to kill it ~ 😀

How is that not positive? He's killing it and I think it'd be worthwhile to pass on his knowledge. Don't be naive-- LizzyM of 64 is very low and obviously he is doing something right and I'm interested.

It wasn't positive with the way you worded it. I apologize if I misunderstood. Insulting my "naivety" doesn't get us anywhere either, well aware that the 64 is low.

If you're interested in what he's doing right, there's a better way to approach it than publicly shaming his stats 🙂

I know ! I'm saying the same thing..I'm incredibly grateful for the fortune iv had this cycle

 

[doctorbob23]

And thank u all for the positive support since day 1 my fellow SDN'ers

Iv gone thru my own challenges and overcame them. I think that might have helped. I'm also URM And have a > 90% mcat

I'm sorry my post wasn't positive enough for you. I put the "lol" there because that's how I talk.

Nah man, you've earned it! No one gets 22 II on accident.

**** no one really gets 22 II on purpose lol

Hey! I was wondering what's considered the average lizzyM score? Because doesn't a 64 score mean 64 percent of applicants were either at his level or lower?

EDIT: I realized I've misinterpreted the lizzyM score so never mind about the second part of the question lol...But I'm still wondering what an Average lizzyM score is

Lol yes LizzyM is uGPA * 10 + MCAT (old scale) so it's not a percentile based stat. Average matriculants is around a 3.7/31 so around a LizzyM of 68 is average nationally. Here on SDN the average is closer to 70/71 I think lol selection bias is strong here.

I don't see any that have posted. That doesn't confirm it though.

Ugh.... I really hope that they haven't because that would tell me that I haven't been passed over as an OOS!

 

[carrots28]
