Happy Friday to all MCAT studiers out there! Hope all ur 4th of July's went well.

Coolest thing I learned from a passage was probably the Warburg Effect and how cancer cells switch to anaerobic respiration but ramp up their glycolytic rate so much that this becomes energetically favorable to them! Pretty cray.

Coolest thing I learned one time was that I didn't have to read it

I honestly think I was so nervous taking the tests that I don't remember a single one that I remotely found interesting at the time or after...

I think some TPR and EK ones were interesting especially in verbal about forensics.

EK's haircut passage. It clued me in to why my friend's hair looked weird. So I showed him the passage, and he fixed his hair. Thanks EK.

I almost got a bad score because it was funny and distracting.

Really? In my TPR practice materials it always feels like there are instances where you need information from the passage to come to a conclusion especially in PS. In the BS section I feel like I can recognize which passages I have to read and which I don't.

I learned that my procrastination stems from my fear of having no way out if I try but fail.

I know surprisingly more about women's literature now. Every Kaplan test had a passage on it.

I once learned that this exam is a piece of garbage. It was a good day.

That's why I'm going to kill it and whoop it a new butthole.

That I overestimated how much I learned in college.

In the trial section of the MCAT I learned that there was such thing as a child abuse pediatrician. That's pretty awesome. I think that's what I want to be.

This...yes. Lol
