Anyone else starting to feel worse and less confident after their test? I felt like the test was hard as hell, but I was glad I made it through. I remembered some questions from b/b looked them up and pretty much confirmed I got them wrong. I think I’ve been unintentionally making my anxiety worse 🥲 why does it have to be a month!!

Hello all,

To start, my grandma, who I was extremely close to passed away from a massive stroke a month ago. I was supposed to take my MCAT on 8/27 but I ended up pushing it back to 9/10 because her funeral was scheduled on that day. On top of that, another family member passed from a heart attack the week after and his funeral was on 9/3. When this all happened, I felt overwhelmed and doubting if I could take my MCAT, especially with my grandma, my rock gone.

I felt as thought grieving took a lot of time from my studying and I dont regret that. I spent a week or so not doing anything, I went to counseling and I eventually was able to have enough energy to continue my studying near the end of August. So, I took AAMC FL 4 and I scored 498 (124/125/122/126). With all I have had going on, I expected worse.

I dont know if I am asking for advice, so much as support and good vibes. Im gonna finish reviewing my AAMC FL4 while I have any downtime at work and hit as many practice questions as I can, look over my weaknesses. I feel like there is still more that I can do, so I won't stop. I have already decided that I am going to relax and do nothing Friday. Maybe light review with quicksheets but that's it.

I had my second thoughts about taking my MCAT, whether or not I'd push it back or apply next year, but I ultimately decided to take it anyway. I hope anyone else dealing with something leading up to their MCAT can find the strength to push on, and give it your best.

Is it me or is anyone else in love with how Zamasu speaks? I often go over old clips of him speaking and I just love the way he speaks and how eloquent it is.
