OP has already applied. What would it hurt to send in a secondary? As applicants, there is no way to know what exactly individuals on admissions boards see on an application as "we should talk more to this person". We know what we are supposed to have, but medical schools are constantly saying that stats are not the whole picture, contrary to the majority of the conversations that occur here. There are so many things that could warrant an interview and acceptance. Everything you just listed, I am extremely aware of. I am not naive. I am not trying to give false hope. The fact the you have consistently told people on this site that they shouldn't even try or that their chances are shot based on their stats makes you the part of SDN that people outside of this site say not to listen to. I understand completely that a GPA and MCAT score are important, but you have no idea what his ECs are. And no, you don't have to be a combat vet or URM. I know plenty of people who have received interviews at Tech in years past that have had low stats and were accepted with no extremely unique ECs. It's not just great in theory.
