I applied for medical school this past cycle with relatively unimpressive stats (3.49 cGPA, 3.47 sGPA, 511 MCAT) and got three interviews, which turned into spots on two waitlists. One of the schools sent out a series of emails to those of us on the waitlist advertising an Early Assurance...
Re-applicant. I applied for the 2023-2024 cycle to 29 MD schools. I didn’t apply to DO due to lack of funds. I did the secondaries for 27 of them, but only 1 interview at Albany Medical College. Currently waitlisted while working on my reapplication for next cycle (I don’t want to put all my...

Hi everyone. As the title says, I applied to medical school during college back in 2019-2020 and was not accepted. For starts, I truly did not know what I was doing then... I went to a large (but academically well-respected) university, and the pre-health advisors were awful. But I've lived and...
Hello,
I am applying this current cycle and have had no interview invites, so I was hoping to gain some advice on where to proceed from here. [deleted for anonymity]

I'm a reapplicant this cycle, sitting pretty on 2 WL's (one for an MSTP at a T30, I'm in the top portion of their WL, and one for a regular MD school, have no clue where I'm ranked as they didn't specify). I applied 90% MD/PhD last cycle and I was complete at around 9/5/20-9/10/20. My plan is to...
Hi everyone!
I'm anticipating having to reapply the next cycle and I would greatly appreciate advice on a school list (I'm so overwhelmed by all the factors). I graduated from a decent state school (2019) and already took a gap year before applying the first time (2020), so I'll have taken 2...

Re-Applicant in need of some serious help. I applied this cycle and received 2 DO II (rejected) and 1 MD II (waitlist). At this point I am leaning towards re-applying to specifically DO school. Based on my application I think the main hinderance was my gpa. If anyone can give me insight to maybe...

Hi!
I got rejected this application cycle, and it was my first time applying to PT school. I am hoping some of you could help me with a few questions.
1. In November, I got rejected from a school, both early and regular decision. Is it too late now to reach out to the school and ask why they...
Hi everyone,
I am writing this to share my experience about applying and reapplying to dental school. I am doing this because I was a rather peculiar applicant and feel my experience may be helpful and informative to some of you sharing similar circumstances.
Last year (2018), I applied to 9...
Hey everyone,
Reapplicant here. Applied to about 26 schools this cycle in AACOMAS (second cycle). I've been getting rejections even quicker than last cycle. Need some guidance on how to prepare if I do have to reapply? My application from last cycle differs by 4 more post-bacc credits (got an...
Hello, first time posting here and just looking for some advice. I have applied to derm twice and did not match and I'm wondering if its time to throw in the towel.

Hello everyone,
I am in quite the predicament and need advice. I am currently in my first year of an MOT program and I love it, but unfortunately I am may have to drop out. It’s not because school is too hard nor I don’t have an interest in OT anymore. That is not the case because I did well...
I am an Asian male who has graduated from college in May of 2018. I applied this current cycle, but I think I am going to have to reapply since I still haven't heard back from school, and am finishing my last two secondaries now. I want to prepare for a worst-case scenario. If you guys could let...
Hi everyone,
So two summers ago I applied for Optometry school and did not get the results I wanted. I'm pretty sure it was due to my OAT scores since I scored low on them. Since then I started an MPH program and I have decided to reapply to Optometry school. I'm getting tutoring now and I plan...
