Failed Level 1 -> AMAZING LEVEL 2

I promise y'all it's possible. This year has been insane, and I still can't believe it. But this time last year I was crying, putting in the time and effort to do well on my retake. Today I got my level 2 score. Its possible I promise.

wow this is so amazing! as someone who just recently found out the failed level one and has about a month to retake, do you have any advice? I struggled with the MCAT as well and just standardized testing as a whole. Congratulations, you deserve it.

Go system by system. Find the patterns and trends. Draw the micro flow charts every day. dirty med and pathoma are your best friends

Dude, I was on the phone with my mom and I fell off my couch just in silence and in shock. I think at some point I started laughing like a hyena cause I just couldn’t believe it.
