All 2014 MCATers, please unite!

Regardless of when in May you are planning to take the MCAT, let's all join this thread to keep each other informed about our progress, motivate each other, share FL scores, and to answer each other's questions.
 
Hey guys, random AMCAS question. For work and activities, whats the maximum amount of jobs you guys listed? I had 2 jobs recently.

I don't think there is a maximum? You just need to make sure you have a bit of everything ... bro there is an amazing thread and there are people helping out - i got a lot of help from them.. do you want the link?

Guys we are the last of this thread to get scores back. This is all so surreal for me. I remember joining back in april and have been with you guys ever since. Like we're all one big family lol

now imagine being the FIRST person on this thread and watching all May MCATers write the MCAT and get their score before you 🤔
 
Guys.... I feel like I shouldn't take my phone to work tomorrow because I will be so tempted to check my score. I know I shouldn't because I will be in a terrible mood if I do badly! I'm working on the EMS truck too so getting bad news could be really detrimental to my work day since people can be hard to deal with as it is.

Freaking out freaking out freaking outttttt

After wandering around the house for 45mins,I decided I needed to sleep to keep myself away from thinking about the score. Unfortunately haven't been able to sleep,the stress is finally getting to me...
How is everyone doing?

Don't look at your scores until u get off.Try turning off your cell phone,or putting it in a locker if possible. Btw,I'm sure u did well 🙂

I'm in the same boat! First day of work tomorrow from 1-5 and I know I'll be so anxious all day but I'm going to force myself not to check my score until I am out of my car safely after work. Definitely easier said than done but I think we can do it!!
 
Hey guys!!! What are all your plans now?!?

I am obviously retaking with my 23. Surprised that I did so poopy on my verbal, an 8 while I usually did better, but overall not too shocked by my score. I'm looking forward to utilizing the freedom in my new work schedule to have time to truly practice and work my butt off for the next round. I am still debating between applying this year or not, but I am leaning toward waiting til next year. This gives me the time to improve mcat, go through my premed committee, shadow an MD in the case that I do wayyy better on my MCAT, and take some additional science classes to bring up my GPA. I also have a big family vacation coming up, and I'm still trying to help my parents with their house fire they had a few weeks ago so won't have a ton of time to study.

CONGRATS to everyone that did so well and to the rest of you feeling like crap like me just know that I'm out there with ya feeling the same way. I got my nice cry out yesterday, but feel so much better today. I think I will start slow and review physics and gen chem and practice practice practice. I may even do a 4 month sn2 schedule.
