Hey SDN.
I am applying this year and sent out my application in late June. I have some questions about how adcoms will see me though.
I have a 522 on the MCAT and 3.7 cpg and sgpa.
I am an army vet- served 2 tours in Iraq. I came back with pretty bad PTSD but that was a few years ago and luckily therapy and medication helped me. I also was involved in an accident in Iraq and lost my left arm. I'm not looking to go into surgery, but will only having one arm be a huge detriment? Will they assume i'm still suffering from PTSD?
I have shadowed and researched quite bit and have been volunteering in my local hospital. I hope to get into any med school, but worried that my injury will cause hesitancy. Thanks.
