Could anyone tell me who is the law guru for Texas? Does he or she write a book? Give lectures? Thank you!

I've heard that all three schools place a lot of weight on those upper bio courses (I spoke with an admissions rep from one of these schools and he confirmed it). Unfortunately, my schedule does not allow for this in time for applying next year. Next year I'll either take Orgo I & II with A&P...

Hi, I am a Minnesota resident applying to allopathic medical school in the upcoming cycle this summer. My undergrad is notoriously slow with their comittee letter process. Is there an advantage to applying to a Texas state school via the TMDSAS to speed the process up? The application opens up...

I've narrowed it down to two schools, but could use some advice on what may or may not be better based on the experience of others. I loved both schools and they were my top choices after interviewing! That's why it is such a hard choice...I'll list what I see as pro's and con's to both schools...

Hey all! I've kind of run into a dilemma here for applying this upcoming application cycle--especially for TMDSAS. The dilemma: After weighing my options and commitments realistically this semester (I'm a college student) I'm planning to take the MCAT on June 18th so that I can have some extra...

So I just found SDN's school rankings page (took me a while), and Baylor showed up at the top, with, as I'm sure most of you know, an absurdly low in state and out of state tuition. Is there a reason the tuition is this low? Are all TX schools like that? Are TX schools more selective, or prefer...

Say you have only one interview and interview season is over. Then you match that one school as #1 on TMDSAS. On Match Day, can you still be rejected by that school?

Came across this recent article, and I was just curious about everyone else's opinion. What do you guys think about 3 additional schools in the next upcoming years for a total of 14-15 Texas medical schools...

Hey guys, I am a Junior in high school and wanted to know the best schools for pre-pharmacy? I've been doing a lot of research but always seem to have different results. I am looking for a university that will help me do my best on the PCAT, and by the time I'm ready to enter pharmacy school...

Student Doctor Network, I was in and out of trouble in my younger years (16-17) and was arrested multiple times and charged with a few crimes. I was young and stupid back then, I am now 32 years of age and have turned my whole life around. I went from a high school dropout (10th grade) to...

I'm selling a copy of Dr. Sarah Fichuk's Texas MPJE prep book. I used it to study for my Texas exam and passed easily. The book is in perfect condition. No scratches or writing inside. Message me for details.

Hi all, any input would be greatly appreciated. I am a 30 year old mother to two small children. I've only completed 38 units from my previous university in CA for Microbiology. I decided after all this time and life experiences that my true calling is in psychology. Now I need to find a school...

Hi, I just graduated this past year with a degree in English from an Ivy with a 3.36 cGPA. I took some courses in neuroscience, general chemistry and orgo during undergrad and have a 3.31 sGPA. I did neuroscience research during three summers since I was double majoring in cognitive science...

Took the Texas Jurisprudence Exam a few days ago for Texas licensure. We did not have an 'in house' crib sheet at my program for this exam, and I couldn't find much on the forums, so I decided to put this together to help those of you who need a bit of guidance with study strategy and...

Hey everyone! I'm posting this on behalf of one of my friends. She is an OOS resident with two TX acceptances (1 DO, 1 MD) and a 3rd upcoming TX interview. However, she would really like to go to UTHSCSA because of family ties in San Antonio (she would live with them while attending school)...

Hello everyone! I am like many other pre-med students struggling and waiting to hear back from any med school. 3.89 GPA with a 27 on the MCAT (Verbal 6, English is not my first language and I have not lived in the US for long, moved here for college and I am considered IS) 100+Volunteer hours...

Hi, I graduated with my B.S. in Chemical Engineering in Texas this year. I'd really appreciate some planning advice. As far as I understand, engineering courses strictly don't count as science courses anymore in BCPM (a med advisor at my school said that). If that's the case, my final cGPA is...

I came across this article on the Texas Woman's University DPT program's Facebook page and thought some of you may find this helpful when deciding on which program to attend. TWU was recently selected as the first PT Pincast School of the Week and one of their students gave her take on her...

I am a re-applicant, IS, applied to every school in Texas (except Baylor). I did not apply out of state because I am desperate to stay here where my 10mo son is, as he could not come with me. Long story short, I suck. Elaboration: I never cared about school, basically made straight B's (though...

So I will graduate in 2016 with my BA in Psychology. I have chosen to take 2 years off and commit to Teach For America in order to be able to pay for grad school. My Teach For America placement is Houston, TX and I was wondering if someone could give me advice about Texas OT schools for when my...

First post here... Looking for advice because I'm getting all sorts of mixed messages on this topic. I know how the program works, but I keep reading differences of opinion on whether or not I can envoke the fresh start if I already have a bachelor's degree. Tonight, while searching, I came...

Hey everyone, I'm a TX resident, with a c/s GPA of 3.8 with an upwards trend of 3.9-4.0 for the past 4 semesters. I took the MCAT two times already, and scored a 26 and 504 on them. I'm really bummed about the MCAT scores. I think that's what will hold me back the most. EC's: Research...

Hi! I'm a medical student from Puerto Rico. Recently graduated from an LCME accredited school here in the island. I'm looking for Family Medicine residencies in the US. My step 1 score is in the 190s and STEP 2 score (2nd attempt) in the 240s. I've narrowed down the states/cities I wouldn't...

Chem and Physics - 128 (87%) CARS - 125 (58%) Bio - 129 (93%) Psych/Soc - 130 (97%) Overall GPA: 3.86 (Still have two semesters to bring up) Wanting to apply to Texas medical schools. My #1 is Baylor, but I'd be perfectly happy with UT Houston or UTSA. Should I roll the dice and retake the MCAT?
