Okay, So this is my part1 prep thread. The intention of this thread is to motivate me and others in my situation.. My Goal is about 90 (Aim for the moon,even if you miss, you'll end up among the stars! )
alright a little background first.. I am An FTD and a re-taker of this test, my first score was sufficient to get me an interview but not an acceptance. Before you ask the exact number- that information is classified. (Along with my age and weight LOL!
) Now my exam is scheduled for july 27, hopefully in time for all deadlines. (last time I applied to just one school..yess...I was THAT foolish!)So I have 84 days from today. And I have half heartedly gone through physiology.
