MaryLennox is back!!!

Everyone else from back in the day abandoned 2014, well except Lukkie I guess. But he did disappear for awhile back then too.
lol. i felt like a poseur in this thread because i was so far behind all of you guys. also, i was addicted to the mcat forum
🙂 but now that the horrible beast has been slayed (well, maybe just maimed. or paper-cut. we'll see in 30 days) i feel like it's all really . . . REAL.
as a non-premed undergrad/ former slacker/pseudo career changer . . . every now and then when i think about this whole process i feel like "come on, Marylennox, are you REALLY doing this???" it is SO surreal. the MCAT made it real. I am a real premed now, dammit. a real applicant! i have an amcas id number! (i haven't submitted yet though. ugh!)
did anyone else feel physically crappy for a while after the MCAT? when i came home yesterday, i was up til 4 am. i just was not tired. (over-adrenalinated?????) even when i went to bed i wasnt tired, i just thought,
oh crap it's 4 am i should really go to bed 😀 then i woke up today at the crack of dawn, couldnt go back to sleep, then couldn't EAT until afternoon (and i love eating) . . . my body just feels so confused and i dont know why. my eating and sleeping habits prior to the test were not all that unusual. i really think it was just the rush and the stress.
anyway, on to the next thing! applications!!! so- when you submit your amcas . . . can you apply to just like, 2 schools at first and then add more as you go for $31 each? i'm too broke to submit them all at once- my list is $600 long! i'm just going to have to submit as i get more money. based on my mdapps do any of you have advice regarding which ones to submit first (specifically- who will send me a secondary without my MCAT score?)
good to be back y'all. i'm ready to kick some ass. (unless i got a 20 on the Cat.)
