This is another installment of the Pre-Allo FAQ Series of threads. Basically we'll be offering the community a common topic or question and leaving it to you guys to decide on the best answer. Debate and discussion is allowed and welcomed. The goal is to include the community in answering some of the most common questions pre-meds are interested in.
Many of us are in the thick of it when it comes to medical school applications. A great number have met with success in terms of interviews and acceptances, and more than a few are still waiting for some AdCom affection. Let's discuss what happens after the interview -- dealing with the waitlist, how to select a school, etc.
Let's be sure to discuss:
a.) Letters of Interest/Intent - how to write, when to send
b.) Factors influencing your school selection
And, since I'm sure many folks are looking for such information, please include:b.) Factors influencing your school selection
c.) Success stories in getting off the waitlist
d.) "I wish I had known..." - factors influencing your decisions
d.) "I wish I had known..." - factors influencing your decisions
Anyone with advice on the above topics is welcomed and encouraged to post. Thanks in advance for participating!
Also let me remind everyone that all of the old threads can be found in the Pre-Allo Information Thread.
