May- AMCAS and AACOMAS

Even though I've completed my program, May seems to be non-stop. I'm pretty sure my family thinks I must be bored out of my mind, but it doesn't seem like there are enough hours in the day. May has been mainly sunny and hopeful. I've been applying to jobs (A LOT), applying with AMCAS (MD schools), and AACOMAS (DO schools). If you've never seen a med school app before, you'll probably be surprised at how much time goes into perfecting them. I'm also preparing for the MCAT (of course, June 27th is going to be my day to shine... or evening. I'm taking it at 6 pm, what is that?). Here are some May updates for you.

About Me

24 year-old living to the fullest extent! I am a small-town girl from Kentuckiana that has ended up in the Crescent City- New Orleans, Louisiana.

Although I also enjoy The He...

June- Physical Health During the MCAT

The MCAT study period can be stressful! When you are laser-focused on a prep-course, it can be hard to think about your health, but the truth is applying to medical school is like a marathon! When you train for something requiring discipline, you have to be mindful of how you are also preparing your body and mind for it too! Here are some ways I stay healthy:  Physical Health:  Diet- What do I typically eat? Well let's start with my rules for food:  first off, I MEAL PREP. Secondly, I stopped buying fattening junk food. Third, I am rolling on a budget people. Fourth, I have also become a bit of a food snob since I have been eating fresh food... so sorry, not sorry.  Breakfast : Premier Protein Shake + Mix-ins I buy by the case-load from Amazon , my favorite are Cookies and Cream I blend these with "Frozen Smoothie Packs" I make: usually frozen berries, chia seeds, and spinach (sometimes I will add PB2)  (I discovered this on WW Freestyle w...
