Hi, I’m a non-traditional Black student. I went to community college first and completed a good chunk of pre-med courses and later I transferred to a university. During my time in CC, I took on 12-19 credit hour course loads (with the permission of my institution), while also taking care of my...

Hey all, I applied to a bunch of DO schools earlier in the cycle but now I'm thinking I should've also applied MD, and people in my family are pressuring me into applying MD at this point even though it's extremely late in the cycle. With my stats (3.4 cGPA, 3.3 sGPA, 511 MCAT, ORM, lots of...

Hi, I was wondering if I should go ahead with my application or if I should wait to apply next year after I take the MCAT again? I haven't submitted my primaries either because I'm waiting on my letters of rec so I'm already late to the game. My MCAT is a 504 (C/P: 128, C/R: 125, B/S: 127...

Just wanted to give those with lower stats a little hope and confidence! Here’s my story: I graduated in 2016 with a 2.76 BCP and 3.03 oGPA, with a 17 AA and 17 TS on the DAT. I thought getting into dental school was impossible for me (which it was at that point). But I decided to work my butt...
