What happens if you pass, but with less than a 90?
I remember when I was in college I had a severe case of "math anxiety", as they called it. It was so bad that if I arrived ONE MINUTE late to class, I couldn't go in. Could not go in.
I ended up having to take Basic College Algebra 4 - yes four times to pass it. I only passed it when I created a subliminal for helping myself be a good student, and my third instructor directed me to my fourth instructor, who specialized in overcoming math anxiety - which I didn't even know I had.
But I kept trying and I eventually passed it.
The point I am making is that you are where you are because it's do time, and some part of you is afraid of that possibility of failure. What if I don't get a score in the 90s? What if I fail?
That sort of thing gets worse as time goes on, because fears grow without logical correction. You haven't taken the exam, so you don't know what's on it or how hard it is. You have potentially unlimited room to imagine it to be impossible.
"No man ever became great, except through many and great mistakes." You don't have to assume failure, but go study seriously, go take it, and if you don't get the score you want - take it again until you do!
By the way, I would say that OGSF may be a better choice than ASC.
Getting a residency in Medicine, in the USA, is cut throat. Every year over 10,000 applicants are rejected. Acceptance is based on a lotta factors including scores, how long did you graduate, personal statement, recommendations, research, clinical work, connections and a lot more. I am a international medical student trying to make it in USA soo its an uphill battle for me. Its more difficult for guys life me.
But having said all that the basic requirements are High Scores. Once you take these exams and if you pass you cannot take them again. But if you fail, bye bye medicine.
So passing these exams the first time with high marks is very essential. And yes some how I am a little scared to even start and finish these things. One would imagine that I would have gone through this syllabus cover to cover with Questions atleast one time. But I have not. And thats the thing. I watch motivational videos and all but when it comes to doing it. I either slack off or take longer to finish a topic than i imagined and get disappointed after 2-3 days and give up and then start again.
Heres the funny thing when I came across this forum, a new version of Alpha Male was coming up and I had no money because I dont work, I am a full time student. I needed money to buy it. So I went onto the forum with a fake profile and sold some of my resources that I had on forums online. I sold it for a very cheap price and gave ppl feedback on how to study that. I exactly told them what to do and how to do to get a 90+ percentile on this exam.
6 months after 2 students emailed me saying Thankyou soo much for helping and guiding me and i am so glad that you provided me with the right advise and i score 93 percentile.
I was happy that I helped but deep inside me, I am like "What THE F***".
At this point of time, I have no money. And money I spent is money I spend using my familys credit card. LAst weekend, I had an argument with my dad over how I spent some money to buy some Ques banks online and wasting money on coffee. I was frustrated that I had to hear all that at 30yrs and I decided to cut the family credit card I had.
So thank you soo much for suggesting the other subs all I have to my disposal are the free subs and the alpha male sub I had purchased a long tiem back.
