How I used Anki to score a 527 on the MCAT
This is how I used Anki to score a 527 (100th percentile) on the MCAT. It's free and you gotta use it.
The MCAT, or Medical College Admissions Test, covers the pre-med fundamentals needed for medical school, including physics, chemistry, biochemistry, biology, psychology, sociology, and critical reasoning (CARS).

Years ago, before all this happened I went wandering the sand, the wind and the stars my companions. I crawled over the dunes, and I ran out of water, but I didn't turn back. I wondered about destiny - would I become everything I ever wanted? I returned home and nothing had changed - I was just as lost as before. But I did one thing, made one decision, that set all the rest of this in motion. I...

Two souls in one moment - Something feral, something calm, Watching each other closely But not meant for one another. We orbit for a moment, Following the way of Nature.

    Hi Danny! thanks for this video, it's been super helpful for me as I try to make a study plan/schedule. one question: I have the Kaplan online course, and one of the first things they say is that you shouldn't just read their textbooks cover to cover, instead to only use them as a reference. what are your thoughts on this? were you reading chapters while also doing the prep course? I'm looking to break 510 on my mcat (I have early assurance to a program already and just need to meet the minimum)

    • @dannyjli

      I was not reading the textbooks while taking the online course, but I did read them cover to cover later on while doing Anki and UWorld. Good luck!

    If you are having the issue where only one card is showing up, see if you have another MileDown deck downloaded - these two decks have overlapping cards and some compatibility issues. Try deleting the MilesDown deck and reinstalling the Anking V2 (solution provided by Angel A.).

    Can you make a video of your Kaplan class schedule--what your schedule was like? How often did you do questions vs review? Did you read through books during the classes or after in your 4 month Uworld prep? If so, did you annotate the books or take notes? I barely use the books but if I did, I annotate mine and I have no color coding system, any suggestions? Not sure if it's helpful lol. I'm stealing your 4 month study schedule. Do I do EVERY activity in the Kaplan class? They said we can skip over stuff if we get 80% on the placement quit, but I kind of want to do it all. Lastly, is the class only high yield content? I rememeber you saying you need to know EVERYTHIHNG for a 527...I appreciate your videos and any advice <3

    • @dannyjli
      @dannyjli 5 днів тому

      My prep course schedule was very straightforward - I set my weekly limit to 18 hours a week (3 hours a day with Sundays off) and followed the schedule they provided for me. I took physical notes on the videos and did all the assigned practice problems, as scheduled - I didn't go beyond what was assigned. I read through the books afterwards, during my UWorld prep, and started Anki at the same time. The prep course is not just high yield content but they revisit and emphasize the most important concepts. In order to really dig into the details I had to use the books + UWorld. Thank you and good luck!

    Thank you for sharing your views. The presentation is very informative. I am sharing it with an entire class at the university where I work at. It would be interesting to explore the effects that listening to different types of music have on people, i. e., Gregorian chant, Rock, African, Taiko or Latin drumming, etc. At any rate, I join the community of people who wish to thank you for your contribution to a better understanding of the subject.

Should I keep going on in hope that I will learn through Anki/ practice questions or should I go back and take the time to understand the concepts? What was your method?

I’ve been taking notes with the sections, but noticed they take much longer… (much much longer hahah) I’m trying to find an Anki deck that will correspond with the chapters but haven’t found a really good one yet. Do you suggest still taking notes or just reading through it?

    i suddenly decided that i wanted to become a doctor after doing 2 years of music. i still want to continue to study music, but i will just have another set of classes i will need to do well in for the next 3 years. i took bio and chem and got taught some physics on the side during hs. i remember some of these concepts, but some are foreign to me. i will be studying over the next 3 years to drill these concepts and learn them as well as everyone who have studied this material much further than i have. i’m currently studying in a very competitive music program so balancing studying and practicing will be tough with packed a schedule. i hope to come back when i start studying the MCAT and see how far i’ve come!
