There are a number of MD schools that reward exactly this. Based upon successful SDNer's posts, I believe that Vanderbilt, Duke, Case, Albany, BU, Tufts, NYMC, Drexel, Wayne State, Rosy Franklin and SUNY Upstate are among these, as well as your own state MD schools.
ALL DO schools reward reinvention....and the MCAT doesn't even have to be as high; aim for high 20s.
Will a great >3.8 upward trend coupled with a great >34 MCAT be good enough? Also I have no objection to going osteopathic, so could you Goro please give me some advice as well?
You can do better than Carib diploma mills.
And if that doesnt work out then I will try for the Caribbean. But that is a last resort for obvious reasons. I just want to know if there will be any hope for me to get into a US medical school?
Do NOT mention, but as I have posted elsewhere, be sure that your therapist and/or psychiatrist are on board with this. Med school is a furnace and I've seen it break healthy students.
Also, should I avoid explicitly stating that I have a psychiatric disorder? Because I would think that adcoms would want to know why I have so many withdrawals. Should I not even mention this in my PS? If not, than can I apply disadvantaged on my med school app?
