Hi! I recently got accepted off a waitlist at an MD school. I have an identical twin sister who is still on the waitlist who has the same research experience, volunteer experience and hours, clinical experience, MCAT score and a very similar GPA. Basically, I feel that I’m not more deserving of her to go to med school and I can’t envision myself going without her.
Any advice on talking to the med school about it/ possibly trying to defer? I’m hesitant to defer in fear that she’ll be accepted off the waitlist after I try to defer, but I don’t know what to do. Would it at all be an acceptable personal reason to defer because I want to go through med school with my twin sister/ can’t afford to live alone/ want to continue working full time in a doctors office for more clinical exposure?
