Hi guys,
I'm absolutely addicted to SDN. Your threads have helped me out a lot during the application process.
I need help! I've applied to 19 schools (first time applying) and my applications are already in, but with each passing day, I'm doubting my chances of getting in. My stats are decent, but far from exceptional: 31S, lots of extracurriculars, good L.O.R., 3.9 GPA. I've also applied as a disadvantaged applicant b/c my mom and I were on public assistance while I was growing up and I also worked in a sweat shop while I was in high school. The one thing that's stressing me out is the fact that I graduated from a no-name undergrad. How heavily do med schools look at your undergrad institution?
