ANY MSTPers?!?

[big_smiles]

Hey Everyone.
I applied to 10 MSTP programs and am awaiting to hear from them?
How are other people doing who have applied MSTP?
Any interviews?

When did you apply?

Come over to the MSTP forum. Everyone is worrying/cheering each other together. I've got 6 interviews scheduled so far (Note: my tone is celebatory disbelief, not arrogance... I'm still waiting for them all to say "oops, clerical error; you're rejected.") Where did you apply, and when did you submit? I've been complete at most schools since mid-September... except for 2 apps I haven't sent in yet (can't decide if my slim chances at Harvard are worth the $85).

I'm an idiot. What does mstp stand for?

I put in my AMCAS in mid-August and secondaries as soon as possible afterwards. I did take the August MCAT, so that slows down things, but I was up 4 points (27M to 31O) so it was worth it. I am kinda nervous if I am "good enough" for MSTP. I have a 3.98 avg but my MCATs are low for MSTP students. I hope it works out! I applied to NY Medical College, SUNY Downstate, SUNY Buffalo, SUNY Upstate, SUNY Stony Brook, Ohio State, Case Western, Penn State, and U Michigan

. . . no rejections yet, though! Should I take this as a good sign?

Hey, don't worry too much about the mcat. Mine is a 30Q and my gpa is much lower than yours and I'm doing fine so far. And congrats on the score improvement. I got a 25 my first time around, so I kow how exciting it is to see such improvement.
