2020-2021 Drexel

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
saw someone on reddit say they were waitlisted today from drexel. So I guess they are sending holds and waitlists rn? or would those be the same
 
Submitted just now 8/20!

OOS, 516, cGPA 3.97, sGPA 3.96, LizzyM 74.7, ORM. Best of luck to everyone applying!
 
Moment of sheer neuroticism:
The first II of 2019-2020 cycle was 8/12/2020. With the current struggle that is COVID-19 that delayed their application by 2 weeks (they had previously sent secondaries on 7/2), we could POTENTIALLY expect IIs on 8/26 (next week).

On another note, I'm high key debating sending an message through the MD program chat on their website x.x

Well my comment did not age well. But congrats to all with IIs 🙂
 
hi everyone, what did you guys talk about in the second prompt?
would this be a good place to talk about an upward trend in grades?

2. What else do you feel is important for us to know about you? You can use this space to highlight something not addressed in your application, including new experiences not in your AMCAS application. You can also talk about how COVID -19 impacted you. For example, it may have caused disruptions or changes in your plans. If there is something you would like to share regarding how this event impacted you, share that information here.

I wrote about why Drexel should love me(ie why Drexel/how I would contribute to their mission). I think it's for whatever you'd like to talk about whether it's contextualizing your application with an upward trend discussion/new experiences/how COVID impacted you, why Drexel, etc.

On another note, this describes all emotions for everyone not with a hold or II atm.

I used it to discuss upward trend!
 
Is it recommended or would it help to upload a resume on their portal? Or would adcoms see it as redundant?

I have not heard of a school wanting a resume because the primary app itself is such an exhaustive list of all you have been doing since starting college.
 
Complete on 8/12
No word over here. I got their mission and am disadvantaged. Super low stats, average MCAT. Reinventor applicant. Fingers crossed.
