Has anyone ever done this? I'm honestly considering getting some face-time in the admissions office to discuss with them my seriousness for attending their school and the motivations behind my drive to become a physician.
My status: post-secondary rejection with NO interview.
My 'stats': MCAT: 33S, GPA: 3.64, University: UC Berkeley; Major: Engineering; Note: four family members attended Stanford for their Bachelor's degrees.
School's status: highly coveted; progressive curriculum; expensive.
I was hoping that this message could stoke the brilliant minds of this forum to gain honest, non-derisive conversation on the pros and cons of what contesting a medical school decision.
Thanks in advance,

- Details to think of:
[*]Mode of contact: email, call, or physically show up.[*]Persuasive techniques to use given the context and who's in power (what's in it for them?).[*]How can I reduce the shock factor of this and turn it into something positive?
Thanks in advance,
