help needed

Hello all, I took General (inorganic) Chemistry 1 and the lab and am looking to apply for Pharmacy School. I see that many schools require 2 semesters of inorganic Chemistry, Im thinking the 2nd inorganic chemistry is Physical chemistry. Can anyone name US Pharmacy Schools that don't require 2...

There are a couple of changes going around my University - which includes changing exam timetables to better suit their own timetable and make it one large comprehensive exam at the end of the semester. They are using the excuse that "it's like this everywhere else" but I don't think it is...

Thanks in advance for any input. This post may initially come off as a bit self-involved, but that is just to provide context for a little-articulated issue that I suspect effects many (often extremely successful) pre-med students. In particular, I refer to those students whose approach as...

Is it possible to get into med school with a bad first year? Does explaining these grades help? This year was my first year as a bio pre-med student. I'm planning on applying to the CLS program at my school next year and apply to med school after I finish the requirements for med school and the...

Hi, I am an non-US IMG married to a US citizen who will be applying to this year's match. My circumstances dont allow me to apply for GC before start of Nov 2017. And by the time my residency starts in June/ July 2018, I might not have the GC but I'll have an Employment Authorization Document...

Hello all. This is my first time posting but I am looking for some solid advice, and I haven't been able to find a question similar to mine. I know that medical schools let you apply without all of the prerequisites done, but, for lack of a better phrasing and due to my increasing frustration...

Hi Everyone I've applied to 20+ medical schools for the 2 cycles with no luck (only 2 interviews) I think I have strong stats... couldn't figure out why I was not even getting interview invites I am reapplying one last time this cycle, since my MCAT score is expiring and I don't want to waste...

Hi! I'm trying to finalize my list of schools to apply to this cycle... just looking for some advice/honest critique of my school list. 3.7 GPA (Biology major with Chemistry minor, Honors in Chemistry, science GPA is roughly the same as cum GPA) MCAT= 511 (86th percentile). Breakdown of...

Hello all, I just bombed a test in O Chem II, and I was just wondering how everything shaped up so far grade- and EC-wise. This has likely been covered in a different thread, if so, just LMK and I will check it out. Just a bit worried about how this bad chem grade will affect my chances. For...

Hi! I am in the process in narrowing down my school list and need some advice. Before I list my schools, here's a quick overview of my stats: 3.65cGPA/3.6sGPA (Biology major with chemistry minor, GPA will most likely increase by the time I apply in June) MCAT= 511 (86th percentile). Breakdown...

Hey SDNers, Before I begin, here's some potentially helpful info on myself (I'll try my best to keep it short). I initially didn't do so well in school and had no interest becoming a physician. This all changed when I got seriously injured in a motorcycle accident (I reveal this because my gpa...

I took the MCAT on Jan 28th 2017 for the first time and I got a 504. The breakdown was 130/124/126/124. I am worried about the 124s. My CARS 124 is pretty standard for me, I suck at CARS but I hate that I have 2 sections under the 50th percentile. I am a nontraditional student. I have been out...

Hi Everyone! Thanks in advance for all the help. I have a preliminary list of schools that I want to apply to, and I am looking for feedback (what schools to add, remove, etc. based on my stats). 3.65cGPA/3.6sGPA (Biology major with chemistry minor, GPA will most likely increase by the time I...

Background: I completed my first semester of undergraduate school and just started the second semester. I took Gen Chem 1, Calc, Physics, and some gen ed, but I found myself going crazy because it seemed like I had nothing to do. I finished all my work well before deadlines and it got to the...

I was interviewed and got accepted to an out-of-state school, but my mom was given just 2 years to live by her oncologist. She already had the primary tumor removed, but there's secondary tumors that require chemo. She's the primary income-earner of my household and her treatments have left her...

I am a senior in high school and I was accepted to both Duquesne University and the University of Pittsburgh's pre-pharmacy programs. My acceptance to the University of Pittsburgh pharmacy school is not conditional, and therefore I will have to compete for a spot in the pharmacy school (they...

Thank you to all who have taken the time to read my post. I am feeling a bit dejected at the moment with my current situation in regards to school. As stated in the title, I'm a URM (Salvadorian female). I've got a paltry 3.24 gpa, and have taken only one science course (bio) in which I...

Hey guys, So I'm in a weird kink right now. I'm on the border of switching majors (Kinesiology to Biochemistry and Molecular Biology) due to mixed info I'm getting at my school. I asked 1 of my science professors if I should take 'recommended' courses for medical schoool, like Biostatistics or...

Thanks

I am looking for some advice regarding a post-bacc program. I have decided kind of later in the game to attend medical school. I have kind of designed my education up to this point for a career in research, but after working in the industry, I know my heart is elsewhere with medicine. So, I plan...

Hello all, First - sorry for the really long post. I am in the terrible (self-inflicted) circumstance of not having submitted my AMCAS app yet. It is the first week of August. To get it out of the way: I know I'm late, and there are multiple family crisis/personal issues involved. I say this...

Hi guys, I wish I found this forum earlier because I am in serious deep trouble. I was accepted off waitlist last week and the class starts in August. Because I was almost certain I need to re-apply again after the interview and I know I would not do too well on English, I did not plan to take...

Hi everyone, I have a bit of a unique situation in which I will be out of the country during the application cycle due to an opportunity to work abroad. I am trying to be strategic in applying to only a limited number of schools so I can afford to fly back once or twice for any interview offers...

Hey all, I've already submitted my personal statement to my prehealth committee, and I had shown it to a professor and a few other people, and they said the content was okay but it lacked flow, some words were inappropriate etc., so I wanted to make a few edits and really need help with what...

Hi everyone, I have been talking to a couple of other peers that I volunteer with and honestly, I don't know which path I should be going for. They both have their pros and cons, which makes my decision that much harder. I do have about 2.5-3 more years before I apply, but it's never too soon...
