Yep. I think that will make 30 April a huge, huge day for folks.So , do I remember correctly that April 1st is 3 schools deadline and 30th - 1 school ?

I thought it was April 15th for three, April 30th for 1. That's what's on my acceptance contract.So , do I remember correctly that April 1st is 3 schools deadline and 30th - 1 school ?
That sounds correct. Sorry for the mistake. I'm trying to make my decision by April 1st.I thought it was April 15th for three, April 30th for 1. That's what's on my acceptance contract.
April 30th/May 1st = tidal wave!

Oh yeah . Acceptance would be a nice birthday present ))))) I wish there was a birthday Santa or something so that we could write him a letterMy birthday is in early May. Get ready!
Hey, can someone link to a source or explain the rules for acceptances? I only have 1 anyway, but I am curious to hear what the rules are now!
Matched to my #1 choice school today. It has been a long wait but worth it in the end.
Nice. What schools?finally done with my cycle ... as re-inventor and a re-applicant from last year never thought i would have this much success. 8 II attended 6, that led to 4 A and a high priority WL from USUHS ... time for some tough decisions now
Go Dawgs!accepted at Tulane, ETSU, U of Washington, and Netter

Yep ... still waiting . Now I am on two WL- WVU and EVMS, waiting on Drexel , and hold in ETSU . Next week - Vermont interviewSo happy that so many of us have had success this cycle! Congrats all you non-trads. And for those still waiting, keep hanging on! And we’ll keep supporting you!
Hello everyone
Non-trad here, older, married, kids, many years working in surgery as an OR Tech, and am applying to medical school this summer (both MD and DO schools).
I'm taking the MCAT (first time) this May, just got approved for Fee Assistance Program, am using only the AAMC materials (earned my BS Degree eons ago), and am taking 2 upper division science courses at my state university to show recent course work for the medical schools. I'm following the direction of the university pre-professional health advisor who deals with old timers like me.
That's my short bio. It's scary but if I've gotten married, had kids, raised them, and worked with surgeons many years, I figure, why hold back.
Thanks
A friend at church told me today that her “plans” never materialized as she had planned for her life, though today she is in her 70s, wealthy, happily married 40+ years to a delightful loving man, loving kids and grandkids, and she reminded me of an oldie but goodie: “when we make plans, God laughs” Although it may not be theologically correct it certainly applies. How can I argue with a wonderful story like hers?
“Therefore, do not throw away your confidence;
it will have great recompense.
You need endurance to do the will of God and receive what he has promised.
For, after just a brief moment,
he who is to come shall come;
he shall not delay.
But my just one shall live by faith,
and if he draws back I take no pleasure in him.
We are not among those who draw back and perish,
but among those who have faith and will possess life.”
Hebrews 10:39

I knew exactly where I wanted to go but having a family and owning a home narrowed my prospects from the beginning.anybody else having a hard time deciding what school to choose? i know i am lucky to have multiple acceptances, but it seems like everyday i change my mind ...
Congrats!!Accepted last Friday!! Ironically as I landed for a weekend in my favourite place on the planet
3.0X ugpa, 516 mcat, 3.5X smp gpa. Applied 4x post-SMP before I finally got in. Since it took so long, ended up becoming a real non-trad and working in a non-medical field-- wouldn't change it for the world.
Anyone who thinks getting into med school is "like a marathon" is so wrong-- did an ironman and that was at least 9000x less painful.
