withdraw

Made this account for privacy reasons. If you want to skip the unexciting story, my question is bolded at the end. I was accepted to my in state school c/o 2021. I'm 25 and I've spent the last 5 years of my life working up to this moment of getting into vet school, but I'm in some trouble. I've...

Hi I'm currently thinking about dropping a course from my schedule because it's become too stressful and difficult. The course is an engineering course and not anything required for medical school. Currently I have a 3.7 GPA and 2 more years of school left but I'm afraid having a W or a C on my...

In spanish 101, would be my 1st W

I think I will get a B in social psychology class..(yes, very hard exams). I really don't want to have a B in Gened, so I'm thinking about withdraw this class. What do you guys think? Should I do pass/fail or withdraw?

* Disclaimer: this was posted in the allopathic section as well but I'm also looking for an osteopathic response too so that's why it's here. To start, here are my stats: Current 2nd semester Freshman. First semester GPA was 3.762 with 4 classes (14 credits). Currently enrolled in 6 classes...

Hi! I'm very lucky to have been accepted to my first choice on December 1st. I've placed my deposit (and my family even bought me a hoodie from the school for the holidays), but is it normal to withdraw all of my pending applications now? I haven't heard from 4 schools, and am currently on two...

I need to make a decision ASAP to withdraw from my intro bio class. I may get a B in my gen chem 2 course this semester (and I'm fine with that). I'm stuck with getting a C in intro Bio 2 and I am debating if I should drop it (withdraw) or just take the C. I already have a C in intro to bio 1 &...

I was sick with strep for 2 weeks and during those 2 weeks I missed the lectures leading up to 3 tests in 2 classes(bio 2 has a lab and lecture integrated into 1 class and they both had tests the same week, and a gen chem 2 test). Both my bio and chem prof did not allow me to reschedule those...

So I am planning to go into a pre-med program possible after I get my associates in Biology or if I end up transferring for the following spring or fall but ended up withdrawing/dropping a class due to work overload. I was taking 5 classes and 3 of them with separate labs. I am working part-time...

So I just got my MCAT score back today. Scored abysmally, well under 500. I thought at least a 500 was possible but clearly I did not study well enough. Took that MCAT a week after my junior year finished, which was not a good idea. I have already submitted my primary application, still hasn't...

Hi! I applied last cycle and received a few interview offers at a very wide range of schools: Duke, UCSF, GW, SUNY Downstate, NYMC. My SUNY and NYMC interview invites came pretty late in the game. I was also being excessively picky, so I politely turned down both these interviews. I realize...

I was accepted to a school about a week ago and received a packet in the mail asking me to sign my acceptance offer and whatnot. I am currently on the waitlist for another school that I would prefer to attend. Since it is after April 30, can I sign and send in these forms and then withdraw later...

I know a lot of people have posted their personal issues in hopes to find advice, so I'd really like to share mine and would appreciate any feedback. I have recently just transferred to a university as a biology major. This is my second semester here and it's going horrible. I had some serious...

Hello all! I'm just curious as to how a third W on a transcript looks to med schools. My first W was in a history class and the reason I dropped this one is because our professor (to put it lightly) flat out lied about his midterms. I should have dropped after the first midterm so I could have...

Hi, I'm on the wait-list for University of Florida, but I am no longer considering going there because it is not near my fiancee's career path. I searched around on this website and saw that declining an acceptance and reapplying almost guarantees not getting into any med school. How would it...

Hello! I'm a junior that just changed my major to exercise science to do pre-med. I was in clinical nursing school last semester and there was a huge role conflict, lack of passion for nursing, and the decision that I wanted to pursue medicine through this nursing semester. During this nursing...

Sorry if there's a similar thread about this (if so, please refer me to it). I need advice about how to go about committing to a single school. Is it better to withdraw acceptances immediately from other schools and commit early on or to look at the financial aid offered from each school (and...

Hi all, So I have a question...when I was submitting my application in early June, I had already received confirmation from a professor that she would write a LOR for me. So I assigned her letter to all my schools, thinking she would send it soon. However, all throughout July, she stopped...

I am in my last semester of completing my post-bacc as a non trad student. I am not doing well in Biochemistry, unfortunately I got stuck with a not so good teacher who is very unclear. Anyways enough with the excuses, I will probably bet a B- if I am lucky, if I do well on the final. So far...

I have decided to do 18 credits in one semester, everything was going great. Then I had surgery and was unable to attend any of my classes for a while. Anyways, now i'm behind and failing a lot of my classes. I've dropped one class so far this semester. I'm thinking of dropping two more classes...

Hi. So right now I'm a freshman in college and I'm really struggling in my math class since the tests are extremely hard compared to the homework and classwork. Should I withdraw now or wait it out and possibly fail the class? Either way, I still have to retake the class even if I receive a C...

Hello Guys, I am about to transfer to other Medical School and already have a USMLE ID number. Now would I remain eligible for ECFMG anyway. If yes how should I notify ECFMG or is it not in my interest to take transfer? I want to transfer my school because I Studied my first 3 yrs in English...

I am applying to medical school this cycle and have already submitted my secondaries. I am positive that medicine is the career I want, but I am young and have always loved to travel. I have always said that I would love to travel for a few years, but never thought it was possible or that I...
