My letters, secondary, and secondary fee are all marked complete but it still says my application isn't complete... Anyone else have this issue?
Yeah, they probably have to submit it for review on their end once everything is received.
I have heard that taking upper level science classes at a community college does not look good to AdComs, almost as if you are taking it at a community college to try and take an easy way out of a difficult class at a university. I have been told that taking basic pre-reqs at a community college would be fine though.
If you did poorly in any of your lower level classes, you could always re-take those! And I'm not sure about how they look at post-bacc, I was talking about while you are an undergrad they frown upon taking upper levels at a community college.
Talk about why you would be a good fit(ex. other novel experience not on your AMCAS app, intellectual curiosity, want to work with underserved populations and why and how your traits as an individual will allow you to thrive in their program.) IMO though. Personally I talked about going above and beyond in my undergraduates studies [ex. one anatomy class(3 credits is required for my program but I now have 16 anatomy credits, 3 of which are graduate level even though I'm an undergrad)] I also happen to dissect cadavers for their med school's grand rapids campus. Stuff like that. Maybe even perhaps a connection to the school or area (I know that might be hard especially if you are OOS). I hope that helps gets some ideas flowing
+1 yup but all is in. Probably just needs a day or two to catch up.
I think that would be fine as long as emphasize what you learned from the experience. A lot of experiences outside of someone's comfort zone aren't successful.
I had this same problem yesterday, but it seems that today my application is officially completed and has been forwarded for review. I think it just took some time on their end to get everything ready to review
did you not put that in your primary?
Not only that the 2nd question is basically saying "what is your 4th most meaningful experience?" since you can't use anything that you went into detail on in your primary
ahhh, I gotcha now. Thank you.
ughhhhhh....most difficult I've had so far by a long shot.ottawa and mcgill?
Would it be bad to basically say "If accepted, this is where I'm going to school." I mean, it's my top choice so this is a completely true statement.
Last year they started going out towards the end of August.
It's near impossible to get IS tuition in Michigan if you're coming from OOS. You have to be a resident of the state for at least 12 months for a reason other than attending school. Usually you have to be working full-time for a year to get IS tuition.
Interesting, mine is still in preliminary review.
Did you get an email about the status change or did it just show up on the portal?
+1 as of 7/24
