at one time, hysterical over what he faces; now, calm, and resigned to his fate. not that i expect to do poorly. more or less that i've accepted that i've prepared myself well, and that i'm ready for whatever happens on saturday.

on a similar note, who's getting religious. . . .?
 
Wow... That's a bit intense. To me, its just another stupid test.

(probably because Im not taking it this week 😀)

haha very well described!!! i feel it so perfectly.

i've been religious (a Christian) for a long time
 
I'm catholic...went to catholic schools...and I have my entire family and my christian and jewish friends praying for me...one doctor I know gave me a rosary with a prayer...she said it's more to calm you down...I thought that was interesting...
I also know, that God is not gonna fill the answers for me on the test...so no matter how hard I pray...If I don't do what I gotta do..I ain't getting a good score...

Peace!

Dude, you are walking a well worn path ... ! 😀 and you are not alone in your fears, numbness and oppression ...! Do you best and kick the beast and then it will be over.
 
Just don't lose sight that this is just a test. It does not affect your grades, and your proctor isn't going to come back and execute everyone who did poorly.

Worst case scenario, you take it again and have to wait another year to apply. Big whoop.

does wanting to bang the animated chick in your avatar qualify me as a sexual deviant?
 
yea i know it's only a test, and actually when others commented it was the most important test of our life; i was going to say it might be the most important exam ofour life but surely we have or will experience more important "tests" that can ultimately effect even more crucial things than whether we get into med school this year or the next...

good luck to everyone
 
Karina, give it up for the catholics! 🙂 I'm thinking about scheduling an appt to go to confession on Friday along with weekday mass, something I don't often do! 🙂

Going to confession scares me worse than the MCAT. :scared:

only if you have a reason to feel really guilty

anyway you don't actually have to go to confession...i confess my sins all the time and that's MUCH easier than the MCAT
 
I dunno I'm kinda numb and really scared maybe that is what you feel like when your on death row.... all I know is I feel like I've done the best I could have done in the time I was given, if it is meant to be it will happen.... life is funny like that isn't it. Well again take it easy everyone hopefully no one will be disappointed this time around. whatever happens don't give up, all this work will be worth it.

lol! that's funny 'coz i was thinking about going over to church tomorrow too!! ah man, God's probably getting an earful from all us whiny MCAT takers... :laugh:
 
Hey guys dont even sweat the MCAT. At this point in time hold fast to you dreams and let nothing come btw you and that dream. See the MCAT as a stepping stone in your quest to conquer................. And await further difficulties ahead as oppose to sweating over the MCAT. Let us all do what we do best on friday and galantly walk to the test center on saturday to defeat the MCAT. The MCAT is an oppressor like Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini. All these past oppressors have been defeated and the MCAT will be no exception come saturday. Go guys.
