For people that took the MCAT, did you use the tutorial time to brain dump? tried to calm your anxiety? skipped it entirely?

what about during practice tests? did you do the same thing?

i never felt the need to brain dump and i feel that it would make me more stressed. you cant really predict what you are going to get on your exam. and i think that if you can remember something enough to brain dump it then you will be able to retrieve it during your exam.

what i usually do is breathing exercises because i get anxious at first. i try to calm myself during that time.

is brain dumping worth it? if you did it during test day, did you even look at what you wrote?

so I’m testing on August 21 and my scores for the first three FLs have are:

two weeks ago: 508 (128/123/128/129)

a week ago: 509 (128/122/130/129)

today: 511 (128/125/129/129)

i started AAMC material this week i was doing UW prior to that.

i started with the cars diagnostic tool and cars is my biggest issue i hope to continue seeing an upward trend.

my question is, is this a good place to be at? i haven’t started with the section banks yet , but any advice is appreciated. how can i maximize my score in these 20 days i have left?

is this considered an upwards score trend? because its barely budging.

advice is appreciated!

in my freshman year of college i was walking on campus on a winter morning at around 7:00 am. the ground was slippery because it rained earlier. I was on my way to the library when i saw an old man slip and fall on the ground. he was screaming from the pain. the fall looked horrible and he couldn’t move his legs. in front of me was another guy who ran to the security and protection office. and me, instead of staying there with that poor man while that guy called for help, i tried to follow him because i didn’t know what else i could do that could be helpful in the moment. i froze and just escaped the situation. instead of going back to help either of them, i just went to the library. the worst part is, i wasn’t even in a rush for anything and had an hour until my first class of the day. i feel guilty about that very often.

and why

if i reset a FL attempt is my pervious attempt saved ? can i review it again and see my previous mistakes ?
or are they gone and only the newer attempt can be reviewed?

Me and my ex were together for 3.5 years and broke up in January this year. we were together in high school and we are now both attending the same college. both of us are premedical students and we are going to be attending the same medical school next year.
I was the one who broke up with him because i felt like i outgrew him/ the relationship. it wasn’t a “bad” break up. we had a period of no contact (2 months) but then reconnected. we both support and are friendly to each other and i seriously see him as a best friend because it feels like i grew up with him. i genuinely want what is best for him but i know i don’t want to be in a relationship with him anymore. he’s more of a friend now. and i believe that he thinks the same of me. i don’t know if this would be problematic in the future or if this is normal for an ex-boyfriend. he was “my first” everything.
i started talking to a new guy earlier in june but it didn’t really go any further however it made me wonder how would a new partner perceive this?
