Hello Again Fellow SDN members

I have no idea if this thread was made already if it exists feel free to shut this down and redirect me to the original thread 🙂🙂

This is for those who had average/below average GPA and/or low MCAT and still got in to medical school ( first try or 2nd try), Why do you think you made it when the odds were against you? I'm sure some people thought you wouldn't make it , but you still beat the odds and applied anyways and got in , even if u applied to 30 schools and got into one at least you got IN

please share some of your success stories and give us Pre-meds some advice on what to expect ?

Please give us Data to go by , your age, gpa , mcat , how many school you applied to? volunteer experience and etc anything that you feel will help us please share

Thanks
