So I’m probably going to end up having to reapply this cycle. I had a much better cycle (at least in terms of getting interviews) than I had expected but it looks like it wasn’t meant to be. Some basic information: Asian Male Large Research University Lizzy M ~75-76, CA resident ECs...

Hi, all! So I am reapplying and used the transfer data option. All my old coursework was added, nice! Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knows if I have to resend transcripts? I graduated before I submitted my app last year so everything is already completed on my transcripts. However, I do have...

Could somebody please give me feedback on my school list? Here's a short summary of my stats: - Undergrad at U Toronto with a Physiology Specialist, consistent upward trend, cGPA at 3.63 (3.8 without first year). Similar sGPA, but my first year pre-reqs are obv on the low side. - Wrote old MCAT...

I got positive feedback on my last personal statement, and the experience is one that I think truly played a very large role in my pursuit of medicine, beyond anything new I have done in my gap year. Instead of scrapping the whole thing and rewriting a new (potentially weaker) one, could I...

Like a lot of you out there, I'm kind of in a bind. Any advice or input would be much appreciated! As it stands currently, I am holding 4 waitlists from the 2015-2016 cycle (1 high priority, 1 middle tier, 2 unspecified). I had originally thought that my chances were relatively good (3.75 GPA...

Hi, Everyone! Was hoping to get some advice for my sort of odd situation. I have taken the MCAT multiple times (I know...not ideal at all and should've planned much better, but trying to move forward). Applied to med school (secondaries were complete a little late-end of Aug/mid sept)...

Hi all, this is my first time posting in SD! Until now I have only stalked hundreds of forums. :) I would really appreciate any insight about my application, i.e. what you think may be the weakest part of my application and what it is that may have held me back from getting accepted my first...

As the thread title suggests... calling schools for feedback for my possible (probable) reapplication. I applied with a 4.0/34 (12/10/12, summer 2014 exam) fairly late in the cycle due to committee letter (submitted AMCAS in June and all secondaries within 2 weeks) and received all interviews...

I apologize in advance for the length, but the text is important to supplement my questions below. For those reading, thank you for your time. I am planning on reapplying this coming cycle as an MD/PhD (I applied for 2015 entry as MD). Reason for my rejections I found out through my interview...

I applied to medical school for this fall, all DO schools plus 2 MD schools in the Caribbean. I was accepted to the ones in the Caribbean, but I really want to be a DO. I've decided to turn down the acceptances and reapply to DO. My MCAT score was 496 (I'm already planning on retaking this)...

I applied for MD/PhD last cycle and did not get any interviews or acceptances. I think I know where my weaknesses are - MCAT and GPA. My undergrad GPA was poor as I was ill most of the time, but postbac work proved I could do better (3.9 for three years). I'm in process of applying for master's...

I am aware of the sentiment surrounding this topic. I was accepted to one OOS school and denied at my state school. I am very thankful for my acceptance and liked this school when I interviewed. I am going forward with everything to attend in the fall, but here are the stress inducing things...

I'll be a reapplicant for the 2016-17 cycle. The one thing I can't find information on is how to go about the 15 "Meaningful Things" part of the application. I have some new things to add from supplemental work, volunteering, etc. As an "Old Pre-med"; however, most my 15 things are based on my...

Hey everyone, As you can tell by the title of the thread I will be applying for the 3rd time to dental school, and am hoping the expression "third times the charm" really applies here. Anyways, I would like to know what some of you who are either already in dental school or are accepted to...

I am reapplying to medical school this June of 2016 and I was wondering if I'd have a better chance this year. I'm also wondering if I'd be competitive for MD/PhD programs in public health related areas. Stats/Background Degrees: BA in Neuroscience, MPH (will complete in May 2017) Undergrad...

I applied in the 2016 cycle and received one interview and was placed on the alternate list at 1 MD school. I applied to one DO school and was accepted. I really don't mind attending a DO school, but for many reasons, did not end up liking the one I applied to. If I reapply next year, can I get...

Hi everyone After a couple waitlists I've been working on a plan for a second gap year and had a few questions about how to approach my next year reapplying. I feel comfortable with my application with regards to gpa/mcat, research, clinical experience and shadowing, LORs, PS, but one aspect I...

Hey all! I'm a longtime lurker on this site, and I just wanted to share where I am so far in the app cycle. I am hoping to gain some advice on how to proceed, so please bear with me as this post may be long! I applied this past cycle 2015-2016 with the following app: Residency: CA Stats...

So this is my first cycle applying. Non trad, late applicant (complete Nov., secondaries all done by Jan. 1), only applied to DO. So far received 1 preinterview hold (AZCOM) and 3 interviews. All 10 schools sent me a II. Of the interviews, I have one rejection (WesternU COMP), one wait list...

Hey there everyone, I was lucky enough to have 2 II so far this cycle but since the post-II decisions won't be made until much later I want to make sure that I have a Plan B in place in case things do not work out this cycle. Here is some information regarding my 2015-2016 application: MCAT...
