allopathic

Bear with me, this might get a little lengthy. A little backstory may be useful, so I'll start at the beginning. I'm currently a sophomore at a less than stellar college--Ferris State University. However, I started my college career at Grand Valley State University. I was a freshman, pre-med...

Mistyped--can't/don't know how to delete. See my repost.

Trying to decide between U of Maryland and Einstein, am OOS for Maryland. Any thoughts as to which has better research opportunities, better opportunities for residency, better curriculum/rotation schedules? Thanks!

Hey everyone, thanks for taking the time to help me out and I promise not to make this a novel. DEMOGRAGHICS: White Female, 23 California Resident/Dual Citizenship with Croatia STATS: cGPA: 3.6 sGPA: 3.53, 3.8 post-bacc School: 2 years at a CC then transferred and graduated from top UC MCAT...

Hey everyone, I was wondering if I could get some help with a school list and what everyone thinks about my chances landing some interviews and acceptances in the upcoming cycle. Here are my stats and a little about myself Gender: Male Race/Ethnicity: Caucasian Age:22 Residency: California...

Are recruitment scholarships the only types of scholarships medical schools offer? By recruitment I mean they only offer it to you if they see you have other acceptances. If you only have one acceptance is your chance of a grant/scholarship nil? Thanks for all the help :)

Hello! I am interested in so many different specialties and I know have plenty of time to figure it out but I've been tossing an interest around in my head, wondering how I could incorporate it into my career if I chose to. I am interested in prosthetics and orthotics and any involvement that...

So I have had the fortunate opportunity to be accepted to both programs. I live in California and my family currently lives here as well. I know that WesternU has a great reputation in California. As for NYMC, I have heard mixed reviews and cannot seem to find how well it is ranked. Am I going...

Have any of yall studied hard for MCAT but did not receive a good score or the score you were aiming for? What did you think went wrong or what would you do differently if you could study for it again? Im taking mine in a few months and im about to start studying for it, and I want to try to get...

Hey everyone! I am wondering if anyone has heard of this program and/or any success stories from people doing this program. PREP: Post-Baccalaureate Research Education Program | I plan on applying to this program. I'm currently getting my masters in Biomedical Science and I'll be finish with...

I was accepted to both Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine-Dublin and The Ohio State University College of Medicine. My goal is to stay in Columbus but (praise the Lord) I was accepted to both schools in the Columbus area and I now have the (good) problem of deciding which...

I was accepted to both. They are both located in Columbus, Ohio. Halp!!

Hey all, I have had 1 interview so far, and been accepted to the same school. Was wondering when I should submit the acceptance letter by (I was told April 30th, but makes me nervous that my spot will disappear if I wait that long D: neuroticism creeping up). I haven't done my FAFSA yet, but...

I am an allopathic medical graduate applying for residency. I did an observership for a certain residency program over the summer to get some clinical experience since I am no longer in medical school. Also, I wanted to demonstrate that I am interested in the program and hopefully get an...

Thought I might start a thread for the BMS program. Anyone applying this year for the program?

Hi! I'm a 22 year old male from Colorado. I just graduated in May with a 3.55 in Physiology with a minor in Spanish and a certificate in Public Health. I took the MCAT 09/01 and had an interesting situation happen. The fire alarm went off during CARS and we had a 30 minute evacuation. As a...

Title explains it. I'll start: Wayne State I also believe UCLA does pre-interview holds on the portal without emailing you, but I only know this from someone else's application from 2 cycles ago.

Applied to 25 schools, 2 II, 1 reject, and rest silence. Complete 7/31-8/3 Not in panic mode, just want to see how everyone is holding up in the radio silence.

Hi guys. I'm sorry because I can't find information that addresses this exact question. 1. Do you guys feel that if a DO student decides to study for both the USMLE as well as COMLEX that they are at some kind of disadvantage over someone who only had to study for the USMLE or only for the...

Math is not my area. It never has been. Obviously I know I'll need to be proficient enough to succeed in physics, chem, and two semesters of "college level math" in order to get into most med schools; but I'm honestly not 100% clear on what qualifies as "college level". College algebra? Pre...

Post schools that either YOU have received an II from or schools that you know have given them out already (and dates if available). If you received a rejection feel free to put that too, any information helps. Let's keep adding to the list! Add when you were complete and stats if you have them...

Hey everyone, has anyone purchased any of Dr. Pinesett's pre-med courses? I've been a long time subscriber of his youtube channel and blog, and have benefitted from his input/information he's provided thus far. From the free material he posts online, I believe he's not a gimmick and provides...

Hello everyone, I have been writing my secondary applications about a week now. As I fill out the boxes for both allopathic and osteopathic schools, I reflected on what I have learned about the distinction between the two. I have learned a lot about what distinguishes the osteopathic approach...

Hi all! So 3 schools I'm applying to require a CASPer score to be sent to the school. Does this mean you are not marked complete till the score is received? Does this not delay many people's applications since it takes approximately 1 month to process and score the CASPer test?

Hi everyone, I've read a lot of posts on here but never posted one myself. I'm hoping some of you will be able to give me some insight on my current situation. I just graduated with a BS in Biology. I decided to take a gap year last summer because I had no research experience at the time. I was...

Hi all! I have previously posted here, but i'm applying this cycle and would like to know how my school list looks/if I should take some out/if I should add some in/what are my chances? I am an Illinois resident and I just graduated from a university within the state. My cumulative gpa was a...

I got my MCAT score today and I'm not very happy with it. I got a 501 with 124 C/P, 123 CARS, 128 B/B, and 126 P/S. Overall GPA: 3.82 Science GPA: 3.69 I've shadowed a ton and been very involved on campus and with volunteering, and I worked in a research lab for a year. I am applying to some...

Hello! I am thinking about what kinds of jobs I want to apply for during my gap year. There is a special needs assistant teaching position that I am pretty qualified for and likely to get, but I was wondering if a more medically relevant gap year job would be a better choice in case I have to...

Hello everyone, So my MCAT is 511 with 125 in Physical Sci, 131 CARS, 126 Bio, and 129 Psych/Soc. Clearly my science scores are the lowest, and it genuinely was kind of a freak score for me as my practice tests were somewhat balanced (but my strengths are verbal/logic types of things despite...

Hello, I have been accepted to WSU ESFCOM (allopathic) as well as PNWU (osteopathic). I have been incredibly torn. WSU: - New school, part of the inaugural class -small class size of 60 -$8,000 in scholarships -amazing anatomy lab and campus -large city with plenty of opportunities for me to...

Hi. Finished freshman year, GPA is like a 3.72 because of stupid art classes. Anyway, prereq grades thus far are My grades are good. A's, A-s and like one B+ in sociology. What can I really do to make me stand out? I know I'm graduating early, not that that necessarily adds something to it...

Hey everyone, I just received my MCAT scores today: Chem/Phys: 128 CARS: 128 Bio/Biochem: 127 Psych/Soc.: 124 :( Total: 507 I'm trying to decide if I should retake? I planned on applying to both MD and DO schools. That 124 in Psych/Soc looks pretty bad i.m.o. but I wanted to get some input...

Hi everyone, I've looked at alot of threads made by students with a low science and/or cumulative GPA and a term that I see very often is "pre-screen". Since there are medical schools that pre screen for low gpa's or MCATs, could anyone name some specifically? Thanks!

So, I'm a freshman and looking to graduate early right now. I'll be class of 2019, though I was supposed to be 2020. So, I'm thinking if a post-bacc or a grad degree would be the best course of action? I don't want to apply to med school next year, so that's not an option. I had some...

Hi all! Recently spoke to an advisor who told me my stats are a bit weak to applying for the top schools. Hope to hear your thoughts on my chances. Dream: Yale (dream) UPenn (from Philadelphia and would love to attend) Columbia UCSF Harvard Stanford Duke Target/Reach/Not Sure: Emory...
