We both have very similar GPA's, but my MCAT is much higher. Earlier this week, I wanted to call them to find out why they rejected me, but I forgot. I'll get to that tomorrow morning.Actually I really don't care they rejected me since it wasn't one of my top choices anyway. I'm just super OCD sometimes, as you can tell lol.

Naw. Maybe a little bit, but I doubt it is too different. There is a "coined" term for it over in the "pre-med" forums for like the "SDN Shift" or something like that.
Basically the theory states a couple things: 1) SDN pre-meds are planners/researchers. They memoroze med school stats and look into the process way in advance and think that one "C" will KILL their chances of becoming a doctor. In reality, not true. 2) only people not embarrassed of their scores post their scores. 3) I forgot number 3, but I'm 90% sure there is a 3rd tenet. Edit: 3.0) ohhhh yeah. This is the Internet and people lie/embellish. Not saying that's happening here, but it's impossible to verify the validity of anyone's post. |

True. Some people don't even know SDN exists. People here tend to stress out more than others, thus maybe more responsible for what they are doing. I doubt the SDN population will represent even 10% of all pre-meds, and that number goes down for pre-pods. But I am glad that podiatry is getting more selective, and it will be certainly, just like any other medical professions. |

An update, interviewed at and just accepted to Barry.
. I'm waiting to hear back from Kent and have an interview at DMU Friday. I really, really liked Kent State so if I get accepted there it will be a really tough decision leaving the Florida sun for Ohio. And I still have to see about DMU this week. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Not going to lie, Kent's big draw is their facility. You'll get a great education at either school though!

Just got my MCAT mark back, didn't do as well as I hoped. 22
I had practiced a lot and was getting higher marks, 30's. Not sure if I should apply now or rewrite it once more. Have an OK GPA of 3.1. Based on the averages posted on the AACPM website I stand a good chance, however I do not feel like the 22 represents me well enough. I got a 5, 8, and 9. I actually was practicing with a higher score in PS.

There are many who don't post their stats on the forum so I would assume that the averages are about the same as last year.

What's it looking like for 2.6, 26N MCAT? I just completed and I'm hoping for the best.

It's going to be tough since it's late in the cycle, most schools are going to start seeing a rise in apps as MD/DO hopefuls start looking for other options. A 2.6 GPA isn't going to help either, again it's late so it's becoming a numbers game, but the 26 MCAT might put you over the top. Your best shot would be getting into schools with larger class sizes, ie Kent Scholl and Temple. How are you ECs and LORs looking?
