Well, I guess it's time to start this up for next year! I haven't seen one up yet and I guess I will give it a shot, especially since I will be an Underdog myself! I will follow HockeyDr09's great lead from last year and post everyone's stats, interview invites, and acceptances on the front page as we go along.
I genuinely hope this can help those who need it just as the Underdog Thread did for me last year. After two years, I had a 3.1 cGPA and a 2.9sGPA. With the encouragement that thread gave, I was able to earn a 3.7 GPA in my junior year to raise both of my GPAs and still give myself a shot, depending on how my MCAT went.
Please consider your statistics before posting in the thread. Each person has their own definition of what an Underdog is or should be. However, posting that you think you are an Underdog with a 32+ MCAT and a 3.5+ GPA doesn't exactly qualify you as one, and doesn't help anyone who is going to really struggle to get in.
When posting statistics to share on this thread, please post as like this:
sdn name- cGPA, sGPA, MCAT
That way this year we can also ensure everyone can use both the cGPA and sGPA as a reference, as well as the MCAT.
*** Please do not post statistics until your GPA has been verified by AACOMAS and your MCAT scores are in. Until that happens, this can be purely discussion. This will keep me from continually having to go back, find names, and edit information.
If anyone else wants to contribute by making spreadsheets or anything of the like, feel free!
The Underdogs had great success last year and hopefully this year we can keep it up!
Best of luck to you all.
