    What did you eat for lunch during MCAT?

    I ate something light (like a sandwich), a bag of chips, and a non-carbonated drink (to avoid feeling bloated)...try to eat what you normally eat for lunch this way your body doesn't feel off kilter during the examination. Also, try avoiding fatty/greasy foods since they tend to make you...

    How important are letters of recommendation?

    Let's just say that between equally competent applicants (similar GPAs, ECs, MCATs, etc.) they have the potential to pull you up -- especially the REALLY good ones!

    UCLA finaid award

    After submitting your financial aid information electronically, how long does it take for you to get your financial aid award? I've heard some people are still waiting after having submitted it weeks ago.

    So, I was thinking. . .

    Things change over time so what you might feel about medicine right now might not be what you feel later. Enjoy your summer. Take care of it when you cross that bridge. :)

    Number of letters of recommendation

    Have at LEAST 3 good quality letters of rec. to send (typically 2 science and 1 non-science). After that, the more the better (as long as they're good of course). I submitted 3 and didn't have a problem. Good luck. :D

    Heaven! I've just been accepted into UCSF!

    Congrats Drako!!! :clap: Although I liked UCI too, it doesn't compare to UCSF. I think you know what the obvious choice is. Good luck.
