So after being rejected from UPitt, I wrote to the dean asking for methods to improve my application for next year:
"Dear (Dean):
I am writing in response to my rejection from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. As you noted in your personal review of my application, I have worked very hard to achieve my goal of becoming a physician.
I am asking you for a post rejection evaluation so I know how to improve my application for next year. Your candor in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your hard work and for recognizing the time and commitment I have invested into all of my endeavors, including my goal of becoming a physician."
Today I received the following from the Dean:
I have received your letter requesting reconsideration of our decision not to go further with your application. I regret to inform you that our decision remains unchanged. Yours Truly, Dean
Was I not clear enough in my original letter?- I really was not requesting reconsideration of my evaluation- my advisor even signed off on the letter saying he thought it was fine. Anyone think I should pursue tips on how to improve my application further? Anyone go through anything similar? Would love to hear thoughts or comments.
