I guess i will post my situtaion. I got accepted to Touro NY. I was never very thrilled with the school. I applied because they were in NY, and i knew they would accept the jan mcat (so i rush the mcat and paid for it with a 26o
). I have had doubt ever since i got accepted with the school. I was really turned off with the newness of the school, and really dont want to move around the area and live there for 4 year. I felt very restricted to the undeserved population by their 3yr core rotations, which is probably something i would want to do. (not a big Manhattan fan at all). I have pondered reapplying, but from many post here on SDN, it seems like a very stupid decision and looks like i should suck it up. I leaning heavily on going there, but there is a lingering despair i have when i think about going to the school. Anyone else ever been in my situation?
If i do reapply, i would apply to NYCOM, PCOM, umdnj, ccom, azcom, western, Nova, Kcom, OSU, DMU, lecom-erie, UNECOM
My EC's are Shadowed MD and DO. 2 year at a pharmarcy. Volunteered in the PMR division at a geriatric center, TA for a pre school, treasurer of a fraternity. Tutor kids in grades1-8 for NYC Cares, I am going to Volunteer at a hospital (have orientation tomorrow)
My stats are gpa 3.63, science 3.33 Mcat 26o (10p9b7v), i am very worried that even if i did reapply i have no clue how competitive i would be at some schools being OOS (NY resident). Any thoughts on my competitiveness?
I would love to go to NYCOM, which is very close to where i live. I am currently waitlisted, since their class is full and i interview late due to the late mcat. I guess this would be a moot point if i get in.
Should i apply right now just for the hell of it right now? I guess i would be willing to loose the 300 dollars even if i do decided to go to touro. I have paid my deposit for touro, so i guess i would check the matriculate box. (not sure)
Or should i just wait till late july, early august and wait for nycom and then decide on touro? This is the plan that i am currently doing and leaning towards.
Any words of encouragement? Any suggestions? I have no clue what to do and i am so confused, and it seems to be taking a toll on me.
I had a BP of 95/60 about a year ago, and thanks to mcat and applying it is 115/70, I was saving that low BP for med school
... haha
Sorry if this is long
