acceptance chance

Hi, I’m 38 years old, and going back to school. I have been working with doctors for the past 10 years, and I’ve been dreaming of going back and becoming one. I fulfilled all of my pre-med, pre-req’s and I’m studying for the MCAT now. But...I’m SO worried that my past will come back to haunt...

Hello, Long time reader, first time posting. Just wanted to know what you guys think are my chances of getting into DO school? I have a 3.15 cGPa and a 3.31 sGPA. I took the science classes more seriously, and got stupid grades that brought down my cumulative. I have two more prereqs left...

Hi! I’m a third year, Hispanic male student studying Integrative Animal Biology at USF. I currently have a 3.57 GPA and am a resident assistant on campus, but have no applicable vet experience, due to the pandemic really limiting my opportunities in the area. I had grade forgiveness used as I...

I had made a previous post about an upcoming OAT and here's how I did: QR 390 RC 350 Bio 340 GenChem 340 OChem 340 Physics 350 TS 350 AA 350 I'm pretty happy with the scores - i've never had more anxiety from an exam and i'm relieved it's over. I'm applying this upcoming cycle and would...

I am currently a 22 year old junior pre-med neuroscience student in Kentucky. I have planned the last several years of my life around my goal of becoming a doctor of psychiatry. In February 2017, I recieved several drug-related criminal charges but was only convicted of a 4th degree misdemeanor...

Hello, I am currently a senior in college. My goal is to go to optometry school, but I am worried 4 C's will hold me back. So far I have gotten a C+ in an ecology and evolution class, and C's in ochem 1&2 and in biochem. I took biochem this semester, when everything transitioned to being...

I’m going to apply to USC’s post-bacc program designed for career changers and one of their requirements is a standardized test score. I took the GRE and did not do well on it… I got a 152 in Verbal and 148 in quant. I’m considering taking it again (really don’t want to) but if it looks like I...

(This is my first time posting so I am not sure if this is the right forum. Please redirect me if I’m wrong) I am going into my last semester of undergrad (will graduate May 2020). I have several questions I wanted to ask. Quick Stats Overview - URM (AA) - cgpa (rn) = 3.38 (will explain below)...

I tried to find a thread similar to this, but I couldn't, so I will ask here: So, most post-bac programs I have applied to (total: 6) wont sent out interview invites until next year. However, I just completed an interview (let's call it school A) and will hear back in the next few weeks and...

Hello everyone! I’m an undergraduate student in Canada, majoring in Biology. I’m really working hard towards getting into DO school in the states. I started off my first year of university, working my ass off and getting poor grades. I’m currently in the second term of my second year, and my...

Hey everyone, I'm a fourth year student at a top public school and I'm doubting my college choice list for MD schools as the application cycle nears. I know I should be worried and ultimately I think I need to choose different schools to apply to. I will graduate with a double major in...

I retook 6 of my science based classes in undergrad. It wasn't that I didn't get the material. The problem was I had horrible study skills and always procrastinated. The second time around I got A's and B's on all of them. But my previous grade still shows on the transcript. How badly will this...

Is it possible to get accepted into dental schools with an average DAT score and average GPA, if I have a lot of extracurriculars and have a decent amount of shadowing hours (still working on that). I am worried about the metrics part of my application and want to know if lower scores will...

Good afternoon, I know my application is no longer considered early, but I wanted to ensure I still have a chance of acceptance. I am applying with a 4.0 science GPA and a 3.97 overall GPA, my MCAT score is 505 (126/126/127/126). I have 230 shadowing hours, 100 volunteer hours, created a club on...

I am applying this cycle to medical school with above a 3.6 GPA and above a 520 MCAT. I transferred from one undergrad (where I received below 3.0) to another undergrad and have been able to bring my overall gpa up to above a 3.6 (was able to bring up that high because I had some college level...

Hi all, So I graduated high school in 2017 with a good GPA, and enrolled at a community college for the fall of 2017 online. I did not complete my first semester of community college and essentially failed (I should not have done it online; this was my fault as I managed my time poorly)...

Hey everyone! Long time lurker here- just wanted to get your guy's input on what you think my chances are for getting in to a DO school this cycle. FL resident 2 science, 1 MD, 1 DO LOR (should I get a non science LOR?) 1000+ hours of hospital volunteering Orgo TA 2 semesters Private tutor 1...

So I'm feeling a little discouraged about my 509 MCAT (127/124/127/131). I have a 3.88 science gpa and 3.99 cumulative. Anyone out there with similar stats? How many secondaries/interviews/acceptances did you receive relative to number of primaries submitted? I've applied to 25 MD and 6 DO...

Hey, guys! I was looking around online for some resources that could help me out, and I came across this cool site! (I seriously can't believe I am just now hearing of this.) I am new to this, so if this post doesn't belong here, please let me know. I was wondering if you all could chance me on...

I have a 3.45 overall GPA, but 3.6 science GPA and about 3.7 major GPA as a Biochemistry major (bad grades were from freshman year). I have a 350 AA/TS OAT. My section scores were all pretty good, about 90th percentile for each of the sciences EXCEPT 290 on Bio. Horribly bad, which brought...

On May 1, and all this week, I was expecting a torrential downpour of "I GOT ACCEPTED OFF THE WAITLIST!!!!" type posts. I thought the bulk of waitlist movement happens right after the April 30 "traffic day." Alas, I'm not seeing a whole lot of movement in the school-specific threads, here in...

I know these posts are pretty overdone, but I figured I'd give it a go. So I just took the DAT and got an AA 19 TS 19 and PAT 28. my GPA and sGPA are both at 3.3. I have 300+ shadowing hours between an OMFS and a general dentist. I am a supplemental instructor for organic, which allows me to...

Hello to all! I would really appreciate it if you would read this, and give me some great feedback! I got my AA about 4 years ago, and I performed horribly due to some circumstances at home. I had a 2.6 GPA, and I had about 9 withdrawals. I then went to my state school, and I performed nearly...

I will be applying to dental school this year, but I haven't taken the DAT. I plan on studying hard for a month then taking it. This meany my application will be submitted early June. My gpa is above a 3.8, however I have 2 B's and 2 C's. Are these stats fine? Also what are the chances I get...

Hey, if anyone here got accepted to Scranton's DPT program, can you share your stats? Thank you!!

Did anyone get accepted to the program? Only 16-24 get accepted I heard. Let me know

I have wanted to become a dentist since I could remember how to think. I am, a female, 21, a junior in a good private college. Both of my parents are dentists in PA, pediatric and general. I have had my dental radiology health and safety certification since I was 17 and have worked at their...

Hey there, Hope everyone is doing well. I am going to be applying to med schools very soon and I was wondering for some feedback. This is my first post on SDN so I hope I'm doing this correct :) Anyways, coming into undergrad, I was diagnosed with Leukemia and struggled through chemotherapy...

Hey guys, I got an invitation to an interview dec 10. However, today, I got mail stating I got waitlisted. Any suggestion on how I can prove I should be accepted. I'm aware that usciences only accept approximately 30-35 transfer students. And for those who got accepted, what do you think got you...

I am curious as to which schools have filled up their class or try to. In terms of handing out acceptances because I know many students haven't decided which school they will attend yet. I think I heard UDM is one of them.

Hey guys, I'm looking for some advice regarding my journey to MD/DO school... I currently am in my last year with a Psychology major. I might be considered a non-traditional considering that I am now 23, and that I have not always had the resources or guidance to get the 'pre-med checklist' to...

Hello any Pre-Med students, current and future medical school Applicants, (This is my first post so don't take it too hard on me) I took a big risk this application cycle and applied anyway to MD and DO schools that I think I have at least 5% chance of getting in. I am originally from Haiti...

Hey guys, so I'm a little concerned with my chances of getting into an optometry school (specifically MCPHS). I'm a junior and I am going to graduate Fall 2019 with hopefully a 3.0 or 2.9. I'm a neuroscience major with a minor in Education at a good/competitive state university (hence my sad...

Hello- I am new to SDN and this is my first post, I would love any recommendations for my situation. I graduated undergrad with a veryyy low GPA, overall 3.0 and sGPA around 2.7 due to some bad things that happened to me, and depression as a result. I definitely showed an upward trend was i...

Hey y'all, So I kinda messed up my MCAT. 506 127/124/128/127. I have already turned in my secondaries to about 15 schools which is now somewhat disappointing. My GPA is at 3.73 with experience volunteering at an oncology unit of a hospital, a free health clinic and a national wildlife refuge...
