    Just found your channel, as a senior in undergrad looking into DO programs, it’s pretty awesome. Great content! My intended MCAT score is around a 510, I hope to achieve this score by being focused in the things that make me happy. Being able to adjust my priorities and focus on not only gaining information but to keep it, as well while also being a proactive learning, watching videos and using everything from classes.

    Hey Rachel! Thanks for doing this giveaway. Just being here and having the sheer privilege to even take this test itself has been a journey. My plan is to complete my Kaplan books and do the aamc stuff 2x, and do the examkrackers 101 passages for more review and use anki cards to drill in information. My ideal score is a 517. I could really use the Kaplan qbank to drill topics that I am weak on.

  • @Maureen-MO
    @Maureen-MO Před 5 lety +1

    Ideal score is 522. I am taking the exam early next year. I have reviewed the information about the Mcat and have created an study approach that I pray will work. I couldn’t take it this summer bc of another commitment. However very excited to get started on it and really see what I can do. I know it will be ups and downs however I am excited to see what I can do! Definitely love your videos and your channel!

  • @karlivance4655

    I am so happy to see your week went as well as it did! So excited for future videos! I would love to have a 520 on the MCAT but would settle for between 510-520. I plan on studying little by little starting this fall as I’m taking my prerequisites for the test (Chem, Bio, Physics, etc.) I really want to review mcat study material as I am actually taking the course in college to really emphasize what’s on the MCAT. I’ve been looking into resources and Kaplan seems to be top dog! I’m looking forward to studying because, like you said in this vid, I love learning too! Best of luck to you and your DO career❤️ (I followed kaplan test prep on all my social medias😌)

    Hey thanks for the opportunity Rachel! My ideal score is a 514 but I’d be happy with any score from 510-514. I plan to do content review for 2-3 months by reading through review books and then practice practice practice ... and more practice problems. I know the Kaplan Qbank will be super helpful with the practice. Have a good summer and good luck over the rest of your summer courses!

  • @merwahelmand8227
    @merwahelmand8227 Před 5 lety +2

    My Ideal score is 520! I plan on using the Princeton, Kaplan, Exam Crackers, Next Step and Berkeley Review Prep books to maximize on questions and content review out there. I plan to start this summer and take the exam next summer towards the end of graduation and 2 months before my exam date I plan on taking full length exams especially from AAMC because I hear those are the most accurate at determining your score for when you take the real deal!
    Thank you so much for all your great information and keep the VLOGS coming!!!

  • @ashleydaniel6934
    @ashleydaniel6934 Před 5 lety

    My ideal score is anywhere between 510 and 515. I am planning to get this score by starting to study now so that I can take it next summer. I am going to take practice tests and go over the questions I got wrong to understand why I got them wrong and studying to understand that subject more. I am also using interactive apps to help as well.

  • @macieandrus2509
    @macieandrus2509 Před 5 lety

    My ideal score is between a 510-515. My study plan is to start with content review and focus on that for about four hours a day maximum so not to flood myself with information. I then plan to move onto practice for the remainder of my study time. Since my exam is about 6 months out, I hope to feel prepared by that time. New to your channel and really appreciate the information, was really stressing about the MCAT but somehow you calm my fears!

  • @AA-op7uz
    @AA-op7uz Před 5 lety

    My ideal score is a 520! I just started studying and did a Kaplan practice test first! I saw my score and worked from there. Currently, I am doing content review and going over the all the subjects. i have scheduled out my time in a google sheet and try to review 3 chapters each day. I wanna do a practice test every other week for the nest month and a half then start doing one every week. The only thing missing from my studying is the active qbank which i really wish i had since it is so helpful! i hope i win this giveaway to optimize my resources!!!
    Thank you

    I just found your channel and I love it! I’m a premed student currently doing gap years and I find your channel very inspiring. I grew up in Pomona and I literally laughed out loud when you mentioned hearing gunshots lol. It’s unfortunate, but I know what you mean! I wish you the best of luck. Also, if you’re ever looking for recommendations for food places (or anything else) around Pomona let me know! I’d be glad to share some of my favorites.

    Hey Rachel, I appreciate the giveaway! I will be writing the MCAT for the second time, hoping to increase my score to a 510 at least. I plan on studying in between clinical shifts (I'm in nursing school) with the Kaplan textbooks again, their practice tests, and all the AAMC material. Also, "Organic Chemistry as a Second Language" really helped me to self-learn organic chemistry! Thank you for the opportunity and wishing you all the best! xo

    Hi Rachel! Love your videos! I really liked that Stay YOU words of wisdom your prof gave you! So true!
    My perfect MCAT score is of course 528, but I have to be realistic and aim at about 510. I'm going to achieve it by hard work and perseverance. Unfortunately due to evacuation caused by wildfires I would not probably be ready to take the test this year. My plans shifted, so because I will be applying next year, I will have more time for MCAT prep after my life is back in order.

      My plans to take MCAT have detoured as well. Starting a full-time job to take up some responsibilities, but I viewed as giving me more time to truly explore the medical school and what it takes. Hopefully, I'll be able to take it by next year. We can do it!

    My ideal score is a 514. In order to prepare myself for the exam I have purchased the 7-book subject from Kaplan. I have been studying a few hours per week. I have not been able to study to my full capacity because of my full time job. But, I am getting great medical experience that is enhancing my drive to take the next step. I am also planning on purchasing the in person review/ practice exams from Kaplan. I know that they will help towards the road of preparation. I am planning on taking the exam next summer. This way I can improve my confidence and test taking skills.

I plan to focus on content and also doing a bunch of practice questions from books I have bought at half price books. Hopefully this will be enough to help me get the score I need. Thank you!
