reapplicant question

After receiving my post-II R from Stanford in their first wave of decisions today, following several months of interview invite silence and NYU releasing enough acceptances to fill their class with silence on my end, I'm coming to terms with the idea that I may come up empty-handed for this...

I'm a reapplicant planning to apply in the 2026-27 cycle and wanted to get some perspective on how to handle a specific situation. During undergrad, I had a minor academic IA (non-med-school pre-requisite course) that was resolved through a faculty-level resolution process. The consequence was...

I want to preface this by saying I am deeply humbled and grateful to have received an interview from Neomed. But so far it is my only II. I know people say not to freak out till Thanksgiving, but Neomed has like a 40% post interview acceptance (48% in-state according to admit data; it seems like...

My partner had to withdraw from MS2 after failing 2 courses, they are re-applying to med school from scratch as an MS1. No transferring any courses. Can't re-apply to previous medschool they were already enrolled in. - Good MCAT - Good Resume - Stellar student during their pre-med years...

Hello! I've never posted a thread before on SDN, very exciting, but I am a re-applicant who submitted approximately 14 secondaries last cycle with 3 interviews --> 3 WL. All of my interviews came at the end of the cycle due to my late primary and secondary submissions last year. This year I've...

Hi everyone, I’d love some honest input as I’m trying to decide whether to reapply this cycle (2025-2026) or hold off and reapply next year (2026-2027). I’m currently in my 3rd gap year since graduating college in 2022, and I’ve been torn between pushing forward or giving myself time to reset...

hi everyone!!! i’m currently an applicant this cycle and i haven’t heard back from schools for II’s so i’m planning my reapp. 🥲 submitted all my secondaries mid-August, have received 2 rejections and have been under review/reviewed in some other schools… Retaking the MCAT is #1 on my list!! I...

I know that withdrawing prior to submitting secondaries makes one a reapplicant since the primary was received, and I just want to know how much does this affect this years application as I gear up to submit? Thank you in advance!

Hello! I've applied for the 2023 dental school cycle and got waitlisted. I'm trying to figure out what I should do if I don't make it in, and what I heard is that some reapply after doing post-bacc. I wanted to ask what should reapplicants do to prepare for the next cycle? Would the best option...

So I unfortunately did not get accepted into any of the schools (MD or DO) that I applied to this past cycle. My stats were a bit average, 3.5 GPA and 504 MCAT, so it wasn’t too surprising. I will be taking my MCAT again but I also applied to masters programs and was accepted at Brown for...

Graduated in Spring 2022 with a 4.00 GPA; currently taking a gap year. I took the MCAT twice (never did CARS practice): 503 (129/121/126/127) in 04/21; ran out of time at the end of C/P and skipped ~4.5 CARS passages. I didn’t really study for it and took it during a semester, dumb mistake I...

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] Was my late completion date the main killer of my app? I thought so, but also received rejections from schools I was complete at...

Hi all, Disclaimer: This is my first post. I am so sorry if I am wasting time and too incompetent to find an old thread that would answer the question that I am about to ask. Question: I am a reapplicant, and I am unsure how much I am supposed to rewrite my secondaries. I have applied to a...

Hi everyone. I am a 2020 grad who is currently on 4 MD WL (CWRU, BU, and 2 of my state schools). At this point I am coming to terms with the fact that I will probably have to reapply so I need some advice. My c/sGPA was 3.95 and MCAT 521. All that I have added during my gap year is 2000...

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...

Hello. I am re-applying this cycle and currently waiting for my MCAT score. I felt that my MCAT score was a giant red flag and wish I waited for it to be released before submitting my application last cycle. I am not sure what to revise about my personal statement as I received a majority of...

So I am reapplying to programs since this cycle I unfortunately did not get an acceptance. I was wondering if anyone who has reapplied would tell me what all is saved on PTCAS? Am I going to have to resubmit all my transcripts, have my shadowing/observation hours re-verified, my GRE score...
