delay

Applied to ~25 schools and haven’t heard anything from 1 school sending secondary. It’s been over a month since I completed my AMCAS. I understand COVID is pushing back the schedule, but I haven’t even received secondaries from schools that don’t screen. Is anyone else in this position? What, if...

So I'm scheduled to take the exam on Thursday, but with all my NBMEs being in the 180s/190s and having scored 200 on UWSA1 yesterday, I feel like I will inevitably need to push back my exam. Granted while I was taking UWSA1 I began to panic and couldn't even read the questions properly/missed...

I have exactly 18 days left in my dedicated Step 1 study period until the exam. Due to a medical scare in the family, I was unable to study for Step 1 during my dedicated study period. I just took my first NBME and scored a 182. I've asked my school for an extension to delay my Step 1 but they...

Back with my Throwaway..... I need my Training License to start my residency program. I have an old arrest (23 years ago - a misdemeanor), so I disclosed it on my License application for the state I matched in. I had to wait wait while the state I did the crime in got my old records. Turns...

Hello everyone! For those of you who interviewed on Feb 9th and did not receive an acceptance letter on the day of the interview, have you received any admission decision yet? It has been over a month. I heard they extended their application deadline until May 1st. More applications while my...

(read bolded for quick skim) Thanks in advance for reading and responding. I don't think I am the only one with this question so hopefully others can glean something from this discussion. I am scheduled to test April 21 and it has occurred to me that I need to put some finishing touches on...

Undergrad senior, just submitted AMCAS a week ago. Alabama resident, applying IS and a couple OOS. Competitive stats for UAB and similar schools. Rather suddenly I'm having some reservations about jumping into school so soon, so I'm now weighing my options. I'm heavily involved with a Christian...

Hey all, I just finished residency in PA and am an IMG so had to wait till 30 days prior to residency finishing to fully submit my application for full license. In prior years most IMGs had received their licenses by July 1st, but mine has not even been reviewed yet. Is anyone else having this...

A first-year med student here... So I have been getting Fs on almost every other exams... I am barely passing my classes, and I am afraid that I might fail even more as the first year ends (and next year too). One of my classes has 8 exams. So far we had 5 exams, and I failed 3 of them already...

Took my step 3 Jan 16+Jan 17. Just checked the USMLE Step 3 website, saw this joyous news: STEP 3 Score Delay: "The target date for reporting scores for examinees who test from January 16 through late April will be May 10, 2017." 4 week wait just became a 4 month wait? Ouch.

Hi everyone! Hoping this isn't too redundant because I've seen a lot of people asking about UWorld scores and how to not be disappointed with them. I'm going to begin my fifth year at Medical School (it's 5 years here) in a week, and my three month Step period has begun i.e. Oct-Nov-Dec...

Hi All, I was unaware that when one is applying to DO schools, one must send his/her official MCAT scores directly from AAMC to AACOMAS. I know it sounds silly, but I thought that by providing AACOMAS my AAMC ID# that they would be able to see all official scores. I guess not. A few questions...
