Hey all,

So as this cycle winds down, I've found myself with 3 post interview holds and 1 alternate list. I feel like my chances of getting in are looking pretty bleak so I've started to look into applying again.

This would mean applying for a third time. I've noticed on Loyola's website that they discourage 3rd time applicants so I was wondering is indicative to most medical schools? Or would I just have to check with each school individually?

My stats for those who are interested:

MCAT: 29 (P: 9, V: 10, B: 10)
GPA: 3.6
BCPM GPA: 3.4
Experience:
- 3 years EMT
- 1.5 years free clinic volunteer
- 2 years research, with 2nd author publication
- medical mission to South America
- currently working in a lab at a university doing clinical research

Thanks!
