Where to sell old (UP) clothes?

Cleaned out my closet today and have a bunch of clothes in good condition (some with price tags on). Most of them are trendy clothes in style but are from Urban Planet.

Any stores places that would take these?

Psych or BMSC

Context: pre-med wanting to get into med for psychiatry/neurologist. Currently just finished 1st year and I’m noticing I’m taking a lot of classes leaning towards humanities as electives. Figured I would enjoy switching to a BaSc in Psych rather than BMSC, comparatively easier to maintain gpa and I would finish the degree faster and be able to apply for med faster.

However I’m concerned about the chances of getting into med compared to in BMSC (checked stats and noticed that 61 of this cohorts med acceptances were from a biological science background—assuming this doesn’t includes psych?). Also seem people talking about how crap the psych department is recently and how hard it is to get into classes.

Would it be wiser to stay in BMSC or switch to psych? I’m not very worried about classes for MCAT prep since I’ve taken the majority of the core BMSC classes and 1st year science/physics. I’m mainly concerned as to whether it will hinder my chances of getting in.

If anyone who has taken this route or more familiar with the process could leave insight, I would really appreciated it

I know that you can’t replace a grade with under a 60 on your transcript but I was granted the opportunity to retake the class but not for any credit. They say that A&S will not recognize the repeated class thus the associated grade. I wanted to ask what this would mean for med school/graduate school/scholarship applications—would they use the better grade or the original? (I couldn’t find any clear resources outlining their policies)

I was hoping to retake the class to improve my competitiveness for med/graduate programs but now I am wondering if that’s possible and if anyone can give any advice on whether it’s worth it?
