Not that I took the MCAT or anything, this past August, but just because I feel like you all should have a thread like the one Crazy Cav had for us in April..........

Here it is, your official Countdown thread...................

As of now, you have 54 days, 3 hours, and 1 minute left til score release..........

Good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀 😀: 😀 :luck: :luck:
 
Hurricanes *are* frightening, but try to keep your fear of them in perspective: we know well in advance when they are coming, and we get several days' warning so that we can prepare and even evacuate the coastal areas. What really terrifies me are tornadoes. Birmingham has sirens installed all over the city, and they are sounded whenever a tornado is spotted in the area. Basically, when those sirens go off, you have a matter of minutes to drop whatever you're doing and run for shelter. Tornadoes are smaller than hurricanes, but they pack a lot more punch for their size, if you're unlucky enough to be in one's path. The sky turns a kind of sickly green color, and then you can hear it coming; it sounds like a train. Luckily we don't get too many of them in FL. I haven't ever lived somewhere that has earthquakes, but they might be the scariest to me, because there is no warning for them at all.

You bring up some good points. I still remember when there were massive earthquakes all over the world in 2000-2001, during my senior year. The part of India, where I'm from, was hit by one of the biggest earthquakes ever and it was real frightening. During the same year, latina classmates had earthquakes hit in their home countries too, as well as parts of the westcoast.
 
Q,

On a side note, notice of your post got emailed to me 5 times instead of the usual 1-2 times. That's kinda weird. :laugh: :laugh:

How do you get notice of a post emailed to you? I'm guessing you click on "subscribe to thread?"

There's an option, in the control panel, to get notified if someone responds to a post you have replied in.

I guess its been that way since I started using SDN, and I've never changed that option. But I use my gmail account for most of my more important emails now a days, anyhow.

😀
 
im so freaked out...*sigh*...just wanted to let out my little panic attack. i know the MCAT is done, the scores will come out when they come out...and i'm not one of those people who have lost sleep or obsessed about their scores since it's been finished. in fact, i'd consider myself rather healthy about this whole thing.


ahaha....went to the examkrackers site to see how much their books were and i totally freaked out because i was clicking around and took a few "question of the day" questions for fun....what do you know...i missed like all of them! now i know that i've totally mushed my head since it's been over...but now i'm freaking out. and now i'm done freaking out. thanks for listening!

here's to a decent score!
🙂 🙂
 
Yeah, I had my moment of freaking out last night in my MCAT dream.

I dreamed that the scores had come out already (I should have known right then that it wasn't real) and I got something in the mail with my scores. I got a 9 VR, 9BS, and 6 PS. AH! Weird, because I'm usually the same in all sections, none of them are my worst or best.

It was scary. A 24 is definitely not what I'm shooting for.

Hurry up, October! 😀

What a weird thread, huh?
Funny how the world works.

Cozmosis,
JustR Is taking Diesel's role in the crazy poster competition. Hence, the weirdness of this thread. :laugh: :laugh:
So how are things going with you?? I haven't talked to you in a long while.

I laughed when I read Cozmosis, and it was because I had something else going over my head.

Guju I got to tell you that thinking about taking Diesel's role in the crazy poster competition will make me dead, even in my dream. I am not crazy and weird enough as diesel is but I say we both are weird in individual sense and that brings weirdness everywhere. Ultimately, it is not my or diesel’s fault that you all think that we both bring weirdness and craziness.

By the way, about the read cross, That is great to help what you can; it’s amazing.

I remember waking up from my dream yesterday.

I dreamed that I was waiting for the scores to be posted on the day this thread has told us to look up. And I tired to sign into the MTHx, and I could not. The server was too busy because everyone was checking their scores, and staring at them, half in shock and half in surprise. Everyone wanted their score to be on their computer’s home page or something. And, I get so frustrated because the server kept on telling me that it was busy, and I call one of the MCAT people to see what was happening on the web and why I could not sign in. And, somehow the polite questioning turned into the fight. The guy told me that since I was rude, my points would be taken off and the scores won’t be available till the December for me. And I was about to say to him… and my alarms rings. The reality snapped me back, but thank god it was just a dream.

a week after my neuroscience final I was on vacation in san francisco and i woke up in the middle of the night and thought i had overslept the neuro final (neuro is a 9 credit course at my med school). i was freaking out for about 10 seconds until i realized where i was and that i had taken that final a week before. crazy. 😳
 
LOL! Good dream.

I had my second MCAT dream which was a lame one. I got my score but it only showed up as a 31 and I'm telling everyone. Finally the score breakdown comes and I have a 3PS 18V 13BS. Very odd dream.

I'm taking biochemistry 1, cell bio, and pchem now. In class all I keep thinking of is my examkrackers books and what I read about the topic being discussed.
😡

I only remember my dreams if I wake up in the middle of the night. So no more 2 liters when I get home at night.

Your dream is a dream…
And it’s strange to get 18 on verbal…
I say odd dream it is,,,
I know that one studies so much that all is remembered now is what you studied for the MCAT,
Unfortunately, when took the real MCAT, I don’t know where that recalling memory was… just kidding…

when i told you that you would have to provide a daily countdown as the OP of this thread, I was kind of messing with you and never thought you would actually do it. :laugh:

i'm glad you took me seriously though, now you have to keep visiting the MCAT forum :meanie:

Maybe JustR should be my assistant in the countdown cuz they seem to hang out in this thread even more then me..............:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
 
What are you guys talking and whispering about me behind my back, huh??
 
JustR said:
By the way, a little l-o-c-o ????? :laugh: :laugh:

Oh!!! I got third ear, A-man... That could give me a power like superman to hear what is going behind my back.

How much time left??
 
Hey everyone, I havent been on this thread in a while!!! Hows everyone doing? I am finally over my MCAT paranoia---I dont give a crap anymore lol (just kidding I do, its a self defense mechanism hehe)

Is anyone going to wait till the paper scores come or are you going straight online. I plan on waiting till the paper score comes so the maximum injury that can occur is--------a paper cut; not me being electicuted (how the hell do you spell that?) by me slamming my head through my laptop hehe....

Anyways, when does the OC start?

What is OC???
 
Well, to add to the countdown,
Anyone watched OC though…
How bored are we counting down?
So much time to go….

On the side, GujuDoc, do you know someone wants to go out with you on the thread called, “who would you want to go out with?”

haha yeah someone likes gujudoc because of the number (size) of the posts....

anyways, OC was pretty good tonight, did anyone watch Reunion after?
 
I think we are down to 40 days left, since I forgot to update last night.

What is the show, the OC about??? I read about that show reunion. It looks sorta interesting.

Anyhow, talk to you later.........gotta go to class.

BTW, I like JustR's version of what Q's avatar means. It had me :laugh: out loud reading that. 😀

Wow, the time is starting to fly by! OC is about Orange County (Cali)..rich kids, rich parents, big problems, 90210 wannabes?, but still an entertaining show 🙂

Reunion, was not that bad at all. IF you ever watched 24, its sorta like that, but every show is one year. I wonder how it plays out. I obviously have way to much time on my hands🙂

I still can't believe the MCAT is over with, I wake up every morning thinking "should I do a verbal today...?"

Time to eat...

hahaha laughing at your last statement about verbal. Orange County is also the name of one of the county's in Florida near the Orlando region.
 
hi, i'm new 🙂

just curious as i was looking through a few threads...arsenic, how many hours do you spend on SDN a day? i guess it's kinda your job as a moderator, though, so it makes sense that you're posting all the time.

and gujudoc...how long is it really now? too long! 😀

After tomorrow is over, it will be 5 weeks remaining. Hence, it will almost be the half way point til scores come out. Hard to believe......huh??

since i became a mod i've definitely increased my SDN time, how long do i spend on here every day? hmm... i dont know, i keep SDN minimized on my computer whenever its on so i check it a lot whenever i check email, or cnn.com or something.

i know! still though, it feels like it's been taking forever.

are you applying for 2006 or 2007?

I can't believe that the week went so quickly...hmmmmmmmmmm...........
????
??
Oh!!!! since the MONDAY was not in the weekdays but in the weekend.. no wonder why???
 
guys, the wait is over for me. OMG OMG, i know this sounds unbelievable, but I found out my score already!!!





































































then again, i took the mcat last august, so... 😛
 
You dragged me to the death while laughing so badly…. it!!!
:laugh: :laugh:
 
I don't know about you guys, but it seems like it's been an eternity since the MCAT.

So many doubts about my test form highlighting my weaknesses, no questions about my strong points, and worrying I will score even worse than the previous two times.

I've got an interview next week, so it should fly by, but after that, it will still be four weeks! :scared:

I'm glad I have SDN to obssess over every day. Hopefully this will be my last MCAT.

I'm gonna do a master's and then apply. But I didn't take it this August. i'm going to retake it one final time in April to bring up my verbal score, and apply at the same time for a Special Master's program at my uni.

I had a very very very good friend that took it, who I was helping over the summer a lot. So that's why I'm counting down, cuz she's like a sister to me. And I'm worried cuz she needs a 30 to stay in the 7 year med program.
 
I have NEVER had time go so slowly. :barf:

Just tell me my average was 2 and let me get on with life.

you guys are torturing yourselves. don't even think about it; find something else to occupy your time and mind.
