I don't know how the heck this happened, but I went from having zero IIs at the beginning of January, to having three at the end of it. I am filled with so much happiness after two other cycles where I didn't get a single interview.
However, now I have a new fear: getting waitlisted. Mostly because while my stats are average to the schools (MD and DO) I applied to (3.9 post-bacc GPA, 506 MCAT with upward trend), I fear that my not-so-great GPAs (3.0 sGPA, 3.2 cGPA) might get in the way of me obtaining an acceptance.
Because of this, I want to perform as strongly as possible during my interviews. Any tips on how to confront my application weaknesses during my interview so that I can limit the chance that these are the factors that get me waitlisted?
And is there anything I can do after my interview to improve my chances as well?
