    Very proud of you!!! I rebuke the spirit of fear, anxiety, and stagnancy in the name of Jesus! You will get an amazing score on your upcoming MCAT, in the name of Jesus! You got this!

    When I was studying for the MCAT, this time last year (thrilled to be an incoming MS1 come July!), I was so nervous and moved my test to a May date before I felt ready (which, lbr does anyone ever feel ready?!) and felt all the feelings you mentioned, especially the MCAT making you feel stupid. One thing that helped me a lot was realizing that the MCAT was DESIGNED to be difficult, it is meant to be challenging and to push us to our limits. Normalizing the difficulty of the test made me feel so much better going into test day. The passages are meant to wear us out and some questions try to have their "gotcha" moment and make zero sense. But ultimately, trust your reasoning, strategies, and stay confident throughout!!! Someone is gonna get a 528, why shouldn't it be you!?!?

    I really had to stop around the 11 min mark because you really started driving down my street, pulled into my driveway and stood in my houseeee 😭 in more ways than one. Over the week I literally decided to start studying for my 4th retake and wrapping my mind around what it means and what it will take. There’s literally no describing the feeling of studying for that test to someone who has never done it so thank you for this. Especially from the perspective of a believer because it’s way more than a natural thing, it’s like….oh, I have to fight for this on all cylinders.

    I’m rooting for you Brelynn! You can do this! The MCAT is a game of stamina and self confidence just as much as content.
    Also, my recommendation is that you should not take it until you’ve gotten at least 3 full length practice tests that are at or beyond the score you’re hoping for. It’s not a test to gamble on.
    Sending you so much positive energy and prayers! You truly are a brilliant doctor!! ❤

    I definitely agree with you! I had the same thing happen with nursing school! When I got rejected the first time the enemy made me feel so bad, like I was incompetent! But God opened another door where I was able to get in way before the date I intended! Be encouraged we don’t like the bumps on the journey but they help us along the way to our Destiny!❤️

    I'm a M3 and definitely struggled with the MCAT and took it twice. Having taken STEP 1 I can still say that the MCAT was the hardest test I have ever had to take. Please invest in UWorld and commit to doing ANKI, those two resources were game changers for my retake. Someone gave me advice during that period that there should never be a day going by where you aren't doing questions, they are vital. You've got this!!

    Hey Brelynn, you got this! Progress is a process. Sometimes, you have to do things more than once. Don't give up.

    Brelynn! Thank you so much for being so vulnerable with us. I am in PA school and this resonates with me. I feel so stupid and a failure in school. During exams, my mind is constantly fighting the idea that I am not worthy enough to be in PA school and my grades are showing it. I am still battling how to fight this belief.

  • @maureene7138

    Amen! The MCAT was a spiritual battle for me as well. I'm an MS1 but already having anxiety about Step 1. Your words really solidify how God gives us the ability to overcome these battles

    I needed this truly! I’m gearing up to study to take it for the third time. My retake was better but not competitive enough. God knew I needed to see this, I never realized that what I have been going through since I took the mcat in 2022 has been spiritual warfare my my my! I have to come back relisten and take some notes. Brelynn you will do amazing on your next MCAT. I cannot wait to see and hear about your MCAT score and future acceptance! I will be praying for you!

    Glad to hear you’re retaking the MCAT! At this point, I’m sure you know the material-you just need to master how to approach the exam. It took me three attempts to pass the Series 7 investment exam, and this was after earning my master’s in business, so I knew the content. A Black woman gave me some great advice: she told me that these standardized exams, especially for professional licenses, aren’t made for/ designed with people of color in mind. She said I needed to focus on learning the strategies to take the test, not just the material.
    On my third attempt, I shifted my approach. I still reviewed the content, but most of my focus was on strategies for tackling the questions. I did tons of practice questions, breaking them down and reviewing my answers-whether I got them right or wrong. Understanding why I got something right or wrong was key. I also took as many practice exams as I could to familiarize myself with the format and improve my time management. Once I focused on dissecting the types of questions and learning how to approach them, everything clicked. You’ve got this-just keep honing those test-taking strategies!

    It is already accomplished in the spiritual realm, and your faith serves as the title deed to claim it in the physical. Trust that your faith will be rewarded, for "He has made everything beautiful in its time."

    Have you thought about applying to Caribbean medical schools?

    • @xoxofitchy
      @xoxofitchy 16 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา +1

      Caribbean and DO schools are an AMAZING option if you do your research. I have been watching this channel for years (6+). I'm currently months away from graduating from an MD Caribbean school and matching into my dream speciality, so many ppl shy away from or discredit Caribbean med schools but the right ones are really great options.

    When taking the MCAT, if you’ve already passed certain sections, do you need to retake those sections each time you take the test again? As for the GMAT, I took it in parts, and the sections I pass c
    I passed counts towards your graduation requirements for the master’s program at the university.

      Each time you take the MCAT, you have to take the full exam, all four sections.
