I'm glad someone said it! I've been feeling this same way about the content review phase of my studying. I think I'm going to commit to the practice exams at this point
Really beautiful analogy comparing the topics on the MCAT to the body of knowledge in medicine. The further along my premed journey, the more medical school admission criteria seem to make sense.
Thank you for this great video! im planning on taking the MCAT next summer so im definitely gonna keep coming back to this video to remind me not to default to content review first haha !
In a title of a previous video you made (How I scored a 131 on the MCAT CARS Section?), you wrote that you got a 131; here (@2:27), it shows that you got a 128. I think there's a discrepancy here unless I'm missing something; please address this. :) I like your videos and the study strategies you gave. Keep up the good work! :)
Hello Thank you for your video, can you please explain what you mean by write the exam? I am actually using the strategy of doing questions and review them afterwords. I took it discouraged by the fact that I get a lot of the questions wrong. However, I just started and when I review the question, I feel that I have more understanding of it. I work about 48 hours a week and I also have a family and lots of responsibilities. So when you studied Have you always did a full length exam then review the answers? Please advise.
When you say "write" an exam it makes you look like a tool. IDK why the premed community has adopted this term over the last decade, because it's one of the more cringy things I can think of.
It's what they say in Canadian English. US - "Take" an exam. UK - "Sit for" an exam. Canada - "Write" an exam. All are valid, you are watching a Canadian med student's video, which is why he says "write."

Would you recommend to do your first practice exam ever from the AAMC?

Some people like to say they “workout” and some people like to say they “train”. What does it matter if you “write” and exam vs “take” an exam?
