I had 4.0 cGPA, 3.95 OMSAS, 520 MCAT, 132 CARS. But stats aren't everything! It's only part of the application. This was my strong advantage but people with lower stats also get in with great EC's etc.
I wouldn't say I'm skimming. You do need to read relatively in detail to answer the questions. Is English your first language? I know some friends whose English isn't and they have a hard time with reading fast :( How is your timing otherwise? Is it under 9 minutes per passage? If you are able to do the questions fast then maybe it's okay? How are your practice tests?
@@yolalandx Yes it is my first language. My timing is usually 10 minutes on the easier-medium passages but the dense philosophical ones I take around 6-7 minutes to read and then answering the questions takes me awhile.I'm always scoring 126s on the practice tests only to get a 124 on the real thing twice now.
Another wonderful video! 😊 your mom is adorable. She is living the ice cream indulgent life!😊😊 this resort seems wonderful. Havana has such an authentic feel to it. How are the mosquitoes at this resort? Thanks for this wonderful video.😊
Wow! What a beautiful video and so well done. The food at this Melia is incredible. I stayed at the Melia in Cayo Coco two years ago and they were serving us tat he Buffet. We were not allowed to serve ourselves. They were very very stingy with portions and sadly I starved the entire 10 days I was there and ended losing almost 10 pounds, which is bad for someone who’s already underweight. I would consider returning to Cuba and going to this resort because the food looks much more abundant and amazing. Thank you for this great video.😊
@@Isaiaswolf66 no. There was food shortages, not their fault plus I also had dietary restrictions which made that my food choices were limited . The definition of all inclusive in Cuba is very different than anywhere else. Although I suspect part of it was due to the fact that it was right after Covid. I think the situation is better now.
I would be scoring in the 520s if CARS was not a drag... Literally, all my other sections are 130+ lol. I just took the MCAT so it is what it is. I won't retake it CARS haha. I like CARS and scored so high on the BANKS but for some reason I tend to rush that section.
Ahh congrats on finishing the MCAT! Wow that's a great achievement already and CARS sucks for most people lol so don't worry not worth taking it again and the pain! Good luck with you application!
Hi, thanks! For CASPER, I suggest you look up a good answer structure, do online practice problems under timed conditions and practice typing/thinking fast on the spot. There are several "rules" you should follow when writing CASPER such as always address both sides of the problem, remain nonjudgmental, don't make assumptions etc. If you want I can also make a video about it :) Oh and they have a free official practice test so make sure to do that.
Thank you for the support and feedback too! Wishing you the best of luck on your application, I know it's scary but you will get there <3 if there's a will, there's a way.
Hey Guy, It's Borhan here! I'm a huge fan of your "Yolanda" RU-vid channel. Your content is always top-notch, and I can see the passion and effort you pour into each video. I believe you have incredible potential to reach an even wider audience with a solid RU-vid strategy. I would love to schedule a short meeting with you to discuss how I can help you grow your channel faster. This is not a sales call, but an opportunity to share ideas and offer assistance. Let me know if you're interested, and we can find a convenient time to chat. Thanks for your time and for creating such amazing content. Keep up the fantastic work!
Nice one very informative. Our family is booked to Meliá International this coming summer. For the transfer from airport to the hotel? is it pre booked? How much per person ? Havana excursion n how much per person? I hope you can reply. Thanks
Hello, thanks for watching! We booked a travel package from Westjet, so the shuttle was free in the package. For the Havana excursion, we booked it at Melia with an agency and it was 75USD per person. Hope that was helpful!
Hi! I am going there very soon and also worrying about the wifi cuz I need to work there🥲! Did you figure out where is the best place for stable wifi? Thanks a lot!!!
Hi, don't worry, inside the resorts the Wifi is pretty good! Sometimes I had to go to the lobby for the best Wifi. Check with your resort to make sure.
Everything looks so delicious!! Thank you for the inspiration. As my husband and I just moved to Japan and started living together, I’m always trying out new recipes and constantly need new ideas 😊
Ahh I'm so glad it helped you! That is so cool!! I love Japan, I visited there a few years ago with my family. I really hope to go again sometime. I'd love to hear about how it feels to live in Japan. Also let me know how it goes with the recipes :P
@@yolalandx Oh really? I'm glad you and your family liked it here! I lives in Japan for two years before; but now I'm back and it's on the one hand an ever changing country and on the other hand so steady in its culture. That's amazing! And YES, I'll definitely let you know as soon as I recreate one of your dishes haha :D
@@kiraku_ni That's interesting-China is similar. I'm going back to visit this summer and I'm sure much as changed since 5 years ago. Did you learn to speak Japanese while living there? That would be so cool T_T I've never been to Tokyo but that's my next destination in Japan for sure.
@@yolalandx 5 years is long, I bet you will notice some changes! I actually learned Japanese at university in Germany and then in my two years in Tokyo; afterwards, I didn't use it though and now I'm starting at a lower level again haha! I hope that your dream comes true and you can visit Tokyo soon, that would be so cool!!
@@kiraku_ni Wow, that is super cool. I'm sure you can recover your Japanese very fast since you're living there now and it's the environment. I used to study a lot of French but because I don't live in that environment I lost a lot of it :( Thanks so much haha I will definitely be back there soon!
