Worst Advice
What's the worst piece of advice you've ever received from either your pre-med advisor, school's pre-med committee, or some other educational figure you've encountered throughout your medical school process?
Mine was my pre-med committee telling me I needed to be able to finish each MCAT section in 40 minutes or less because it "taught you how to think under pressure." When I told them I was utilizing close to the full section time for each, they refused to give me the committee letter and I had to wait another cycle because they told me I wasn't ready to apply.
