    This laptop seems pretty awesome just by looking it up online. Do you both have the "pen" that it comes with and how often do you find yourself using it? I really like to take notes by hand so I'm thinking of using this laptop (if I purchase it) as a tablet at most to take notes. What are your opinions on this laptop as a tablet? I feel like the price is very justifiable compared to a Macbook pro which is just too much for my budget...

    The poll that I've created shows a pretty spread out result. I think that's quite interesting and I will check on these apps and sites. In the future, I think I might combine both physical planners and online calendar for the sake of having the chance to write things out.

    I'm not in the position to decide for you and there are much more experienced people that can help you here, but here's my two cent. You have the average AGPA for OOP who applied but those that was invited and interviewed had an average of 4.40 according to the 2020 stats. That being said, the minimum AGPA that was interviewed was a 4.12 so there is still a chance there. BUT! It will ALL come down to the MCAT. U of M has a very high standard MCAT for OOP applicants (and IP for that matter too) since it will make up 45% of your post-interview application if you are invited OR up

    Hello everyone! I was just wondering how you all stay organize in school with such a busy and hectic schedule and with all of your classes and class materials (notes)? I've tried using physical planners given by our school and that didn't work, I've tried using online calendar (google calendar) and that also didn't work because it just gets dull and I've even tried to just use a paper and pen just write down the entire thing that's on my head and tackle them one at a time. Heck, I've even tried just keeping it all in my head and remembering everything that I have to do, that was a di

    I hope you don't mind but I would like to add an additional question and ask an opposite scenario to your question. 1. Would you count as a rural applicant if you've lived in a rural area for only ~5yrs? 2. If you now temporarily live in the city to study and also volunteer in the city and work in the city but sometimes goes back home (rural area) for the weekend to volunteer, Would you still count as a rural applicant? I hope to hear from all of you soon and Thank you very much in advance!

    It seems that you have found the culprit that's holding you back from being a very bright and successful student! Yay! That being said, instead of focusing on your issue for next year and leaving it for next year, why don't you focus on it this year, this month, this day and Now! Every little steps count and if you start improving your time management now, it'll be much easier later on! I'm also currently in the quest of improving my time management for next year. I was told by one of my mentor to always try to do something today or now that my future self will thank me later. Tha

    I'm glad that the majority of the people who answered my poll has not experienced any form of sabotage from other premeds. I don't really think that anyone can gain anything from sabotaging other people, pre-med or not. Sure, you may get a small leg up in the game but Karma will bite you back in the end! I agree with having a tighter and more closer group of friend compared to having too much, which was in my case. I simply trust people too much and I guess that I need to be a little bit more vigilant. No judgement on my side here! But I have to admit, that's pre

    I'm curious, as someone who has been sabotaged before by another pre-med student which almost caused me to fail one of my lab reports, What are your thoughts about this topic? Any stories that some of you have experienced before and are willing to share? Any advice on how to spot a sabotager and what to do if you've been victimized? https://www.goodcall.com/news/pre-med-culture-010987 I understand that this article is technically from the US but I still think that its still quite relevant to Canada. Lastly, please answer my short poll. Thank you all!

I may not know you personally but you have worked super duper hard and you truly deserve this Acceptance to Medical school.

    Do you feel like some of your mistakes that you may have made in the past affected you in a positive or a negative way? How did your experience in the past made you who you are today? I'm curious!

    Hi all, so I saw a similar post on the SDN forums and I was just wondering if we can start one here. If you can go back in time and if you can do it all over again, What would you have done differently as an Undergrad and Why? Do you have any regrets that you wish you did/didn't do? Please give it a shot!

    Really?!?! Someone got in with a 498 in the MCAT? Maybe that applicant had a strong GPA to help balance out his/her MCAT situation as well as have a high interview score with the other factors playing in his/her favour. I need to take another look at the new stats. Good for that applicant for getting in!
