no you're the only one that hasn't gotten any interviews

OK, let's do some rough, back of the napkin math.

This table is the famous GPA/MCAT grid. It shows results across the last 3 cycles.

Dividing the frequency by 3 to get an average across your stats per cycle shows that there are, on average, roughly 4,164 applicants with your stats applying each year—and that isn't even counting the 4,458 applicants with an MCAT better than yours (>517) or the 4,341 applicants with a slightly lower MCAT (>510).

We know logically that it gets more competitive every year.

What did you do outside of your academics to stand out in a crowd of nearly 13,000 applicants with metrics comparable to yours?

Are you applying MD/PhD to all 27 schools?

I don't see your WAMC profile.

“I expected to have more IIs by now but I still don’t. Now I could be honest and say I have one at a great school, or I could lie to try and make people feel bad for me…”

Well I was going to respond with my Thanksgiving rule but OP, unfortunately, is the turkey.

 

[Mr.Smile12]

OP, still waiting for your WAMC profile. Be an honest broker to show your professionalism.

They clearly forgot. When you get old, the first thing to go is the mind.

Clearly, the guy just thinks Columbia is a no-brainer med school, thus an II is nothing.

bet bro just didn't want to sound neurotic so he added the "NO II" part

The OP seems to have abandoned this thread.

Closing.
