Hey everyone,
In one of my most recent interviews, I was called out by my interviewer for having some stubble in my app photo. It is otherwise a good photo with a clean shirt and smile. I know I got an interview at this one school, but do you guys think the top schools--most of my list--pay particular attention to details like this when making a decision to send out an interview? @LizzyM @gyngyn I am asking because I've not heard back from any of those, and my stats only a liiiiittle bit below most of their medians while I've been told multiple times my research and both clinical/non-clinical ECs are excellent. All but certain there are no other red flags in LORs, etc. Might just be paranoia, but I am genuinely getting concerned this is a factor in selecting who to interview at these schools.
Thank you all in advance!
