**2016-2017 URM Medical School Application Thread**

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
II at Washington St. Louis, but unfortunately has to decline. I can neither afford it nor miss any more school. On the upside, I'm glad the traveling is almost over!

Congratulations!! You have quite an impressive list of IIs. If you feel like you can't handle any of these top 20 interviews, feel free to pass them along to me. The fact that I didn't apply to those places is just minor details.😛

You are a hoot! I wish we could transfer IIs, lol. I won't have to though; yours are coming through!
 
My first one was a rejection. Even if that does happen to you, don't let that stop you 🙂



Congratulations!!! when are you interviewing? I will be there Oct 28th!

Congrats to you too! I'll be interviewing 11/8, but hopefully I'll see some other fellow URMs.
 
In O.T.I. we trust....Congratulations everyone else who got IIs... I know I'm done for the season with 2 but hey at least I have a shot at becoming a Dr.

Please don't trust in me! Heck, I don't event trust myself! I'm just as excited and surprised (if not more) with this season as you all are!

Edit: for those still waiting, or rejected, have faith and patience. Sounds trite coming from me, but one of my first correspondences with med school after apps was a rejection. That doesn't mean it is over.
 
Why in the world do people make MDapps pages just to put 3Q for the MCAT score and 1.0 GPA. It really doesn't help anyone, if you have to be that anonymous then shouldn't you not bother creating one????

Some say they do it for their own personal journal / record keeping which I guess is okay but still annoying.
 
Looks like most of the people getting II here are reapplicants and non traditional.
 
Honey bunnies :joyful:

A new week is upon us. Here's to hoping it's filled with IIs, sweater weather, pumpkin spice and whatever else your lil heart desires. For me that means clear sinuses, because you never know what you have until it's gone lmao

ditto. Except the whole sweater whether thing. We're still wearing tank tops down here in Florida for at least another two months.
 
Haha yeah Florida does stay warm throughout most of October but here's to a good week for everyone!
 
also how do you add those cool signature things that say how many secondaries you've completed/II's/holds/etc.
 
Just did my first interview this weekend. WOW the waiting is ROUGH.

I hope it went well!

Guys, we only have 3ish weeks until October 15th (but won't likely hear until the 17th).
 
Googled it. It's the first date on or after which med schools can begin offering acceptances.

Mhm... that. Hopefully I can get one on that day and partially relax.
 
Hey has anyone interviewed at Case Western yet? I'm flying out tomorrow and could really use some tips!!
 
Finally my first interview invite, Boston, just coming up on the fourth week complete!

I'm so happy! Now I can start caring about interview prepping lol

Jealous! I want to meet Internet URM friends! Lol
 
Totally unrelated, but...
When I discovered that the highest of my big five traits was neuroticism (90%), I was comforted at the fact that I was designed to be a premed.

I see someone still remembers their MCAT psych.🙂
