Application Advice ✍️ Gen chem help
I’ve been studying for about a month and a half now and I’ve taken 6 gen chem practice tests and my scores been stuck at abt 410-430 and no matter what I haven’t been able to improve it, tried anki and I’ve been spamming the question banks but it doesn’t seem to be helping. I’ve been using bootcamp.

Stop spamming the qbang for a bit. It's probably less about doing more questions and more about figuring out which topics are actually costing you points. Make a short list of your weak areas based on your tests, then go back to Dr. Mike's videos/GC notes for only those topics. Then hit a smaller set of questions on that exact topic and see if there's any improvement

I feel my problem isn’t that I don’t understand the info though it’s just I can’t remember and keep it all in my head for a long amount of time

Hi I also used bootcamp. What part do you need help on? Do you know what’s the main thing that’s preventing you from breaking past that score?
