reapplication chances

I have a 3.4 GPA but got a 490 after taking the MCAT the first time. What score do I need in order to get accepted into DO schools? I have tons of hours of experience in Research, and working as a CNA and scribe. Planning on working as a scribe in my gap year. Thanks!

Hello all! I am planning on applying during the upcoming 2019-2020 cycle. I applied during the 2017-2018 cycle and received 2 interviews which turned into waitlists and then rejections. Here is my initial application stats: Undergrad - Biology Major, Hispanic Studies Minor cGPA - 3.52 sGPA -...

Hi Everyone! I'm a long time lurker on SDN and am currently on four waitlists this cycle. I realize that the chances of getting in this year are very slim and I am prepared to re-apply for a second time (third time applicant). A little background about my app. Applied the first time with a 505...

I took the MCAT twice (can't believe I am considering taking again) and scored a 503/505 and have 3.8+ GPA. I am wondering what the best option is: retake and aim for 90th percentile and apply a little late or apply broadly on June 1st? SES disadvantaged, non URM, and interesting life story and...

Hello sdn, As this cycle comes to a close, I'm realizing I will most likely need to reapply. I'm currently on one waitlist, with no other upcoming interviews and plenty of rejections. I'm looking for any input on my application as it is. What are the weaknesses of my application? What can I do...

Hello SDN, As this cycle wraps, I am sitting on no IIs and no acceptances. Before applying, I had lurked threads to prepare, but I'm afraid that confirmation bias blinded me to defects in my application strategy. I know now that my school list and timing were abysmal, but I would welcome any...

I am in somewhat of an unique situation. My previous MCAT is enough to get me to all my secondaries. However, it is not enough to get me into all my interviews. I guess you could call me a "near miss" this year. With a 510 MCAT and 3.87 cGPA, I received two interviews last cycle. Alas, I...

Hi guys, So currently I'm sitting on four waitlists (one high priority the others unranked) and no acceptances. I applied to around 11 schools this cycle. Seeing as it is already March, I was wondering if I should begin preparing for reapplication. But I'm not sure if I should reapply this...

I applied for the 2018 cycle and have not heard back from any medical schools. I am fairly certain I didn’t get into any since it’s now almost January, and I am trying to ready my application for next cycle (if I should not apply immediately and maybe wait a year, please let me know). Any advice...
