Hello SDN, I have been lucky this cycle and obtained 4 acceptances at this point. 2 MD and 2 DO. I have a criminal history of DUI from 5 years ago. I disclosed the incident in my primary and secondary application and have been honest and taken responsibility of the incident. My question from...

If I do poorly this semester (I'm in my senior year), do I even need to send updates?I know I have to send my final transcript before I matriculate, but do I need to bother sending grades pre-II? For context I had a downward trend and I have lower than average GPA.

Hello! Congrats to those who have been accepted and good luck to those still waiting! When do schools typically send out their financial aid information for accepted students if FAFSA is completed in October? Thanks!

UK just sent out their acceptance emails, so my timeline has been flooded with people saying that they were accepted. I actually have yet to know of anyone rejected. While I'm happy for everyone that got accepted, I'm a little curious about how difficult it is to get into UK at this point. One...

Hey guys, so we all know how December 1st is a big day for applicants. I was wondering if anyone had a general estimate of what percent of dental school class's fill up from acceptances on that day. I am located in California so I am asking mainly for California schools and possibly UNLV...

Yay first post! So I repeated/am repeating my 6th course now. :dead: Just because I was blinded by my Uni's "we take the higher grade in your GPA calc, and the first attempt shows as No Credit Retained on your transcript" policy. Somehow I figured it's better this way...:smack: I'm actually...

Here's the idea: let's try something slightly different this year. Instead of only a list of usernames and acceptances, it occurred to me that a few years ago, I would have loved to see people say what they thought were their reasons they couldn't get accepted and/or shouldn't try. What did you...

A lot of members have been sharing statistics about specific school "Post-Interview Acceptance Percentages" As a data-analyst by trade I was wondering, how accurate could these numbers possibly be? For example, its pretty much accepted that ADCOMS will invite the top applicants for...

Hi all, I have a quick question regarding how to best plan to accept or reject schools (if I'm that lucky). I submitted my OTCAS applications for the 2016-2017 cycle about a month ago. One of the schools ("School A") sent me an email saying they are currently reviewing my app. The other...

Hello, I was wondering if those who got accepted would kindly tell me their GPA and PCAT score? I don't know if my grades are good enough to get in anywhere :( My PCAT: Math: 85 Chemistry: 92 Biology: 58 Reading Comprehension: 58 Composite: 78 As you can see my reading and biology scores are...

"Why do you want to be a dentist?" Me, I went in for the prestige and for myself mainly. And yes, I went after it for the money as well. Being completely honest, talking about community service and all of that never really fit well with me. I never volunteered for anything in high school and...

Hello! This is my first time joining any kind of forum so I'm unsure as to how everything works... but I interviewed with Brenau University back in June for their MSOT weekend program in Norcross (start: Jan 2017) and was told I should be hearing back in August on whether or not I was...

How do you get accepted? Is it by phone, email or mail? How do you get rejected? Is it by phone, email or mail? Edit: All above questions are assuming after interview I'm assuming each varies by school but which one is more often? Thank you

Okay so I'll give you guys a little background info... rising junior in honors program - biomedical engineering major - 3.9 GPA planning to take the MCAT in January 2017 Have had an engineering internship my summer after freshman year Have a 2nd internship that began in the middle of my...

Hi I will be 25-26 when I apply to medical school, I'm 24 now. When I was 18 I got into an altercation with my older sister which, although it did not result in injury to either her or I, did result in my being charged with a misdemeanor (menacing 2nd degree) for making an offhand comment along...

Hello! I am currently in line for an interview with Ross University and was wondering once they give you an offer, how long does one have to take it/decline it? I am currently waiting to hear from DO schools and was wondering if I should jump for Ross's offer or wait it out for possibly an offer...

Has anyone received a secondary from UCLA? If you have not received one yet, does this mean you will not get one?

Hi everyone! I plan to apply to BM, JH, Goucher, and Scripps for the 2017-2018 post bac term and wanted to get a sense of whether I would make a decent candidate. I am also curious to know what your stats were and where you were and weren't accepted if you guys don't mind sharing (GPA, ACT/SAT...

Hello SDN, I find myself in a terrible situation. Last year I took orgo II and got a D in it and this semester I took Calc II and failed the course. I have already received my degree and am looking to apply to dental school THIS cycle. Does anyone know if this is a good idea? Do I have any...

Hello, I was wondering what are my chances of getting accepted to dentistry school. I have a 3.44 cumulative GPA and a 3.2 science GPA, I am applying to dentistry schools this July and taking my DAT in August. Ive shadowed an orthodontist and have around 150 hours. I am also currently doing...

Do you guys think I have an actual chance of getting in..money is a huge factor for me and I don't want to waste my money like thin air if I...

I'll make two quick points first - yes I do realize that I am very lucky that I even get to make a decision and yes I realize that I'm posting in medical student forum, although it makes a lot more sense to ask you guys vs other premeds. I've been accepted to UMass and Jefferson (inb4 not...

Hello guys, I know I may speak for many that are on my similar position. I'm taking the DAT this summer - and let's assume I get a 20 overall. What schools would likely give me a shot if I have a Overall: 3.33 GPA and Science: 3.0 GPA? I know there's a thread about schools with acceptance...

I was waitlisted to both SUNY Downstate and Kean University and I'm wondering if anyone is in the same position as me. Does anyone know of people who got off the waitlist? If so, around when were they notified. Good luck to all, and thank you!

I was fortunate enough to be granted admission to a few pharmacy schools, along with my #1 school recently. My #1 school requires completing my remaining courses with ALL B's, even non-pharmacy prerequisites. I have left all my hard biochemistry capstone courses for my last semester, and I am...

Hey all, first time writing on here so please show some decency and care. I am a recent college graduate and have applied for the 2016 entering class. I have gotten rejected from most schools besides a few I interviewed at. I recently got accepted into Penn State Hershey but am still waiting to...

Any ideas what no acceptance/no rejection/no waitlist after an interview means at this stage of the application cycle? Similarly, any ideas what no interview invite/no rejection means at this stage of the cycle? I've read on here that some of the schools have already concluded interviews so I...

Hi all, I was looking for a thread for the SUNY Downstate Physical Therapy for June 2016 and couldn't find one other than the occupational therapy thread. It's the first day of April and I haven't heard anything from Downstate. I was wondering about anyone else that has been interviewed...
