just wondering if i'm good enough...

i have 3.998 overall, 3.999 science GPA, and 43S. Have great extracurriculars, awesome LOR's...

I'm a bit worried because of the "S" for writing part. do you think it will hurt me? I would appreciate your input.

Please don't think I'm a troll because... well, I'm not.

i suggest seriously talking to your premed advisor. 🙂

or DrJohnSez :laugh:
 
overall your stats are pretty mediocre, but i'm especially concerned about your reasoning abilities given that you got a 43 and not a 45 like most physicians do. i'd say you have a 2% chance of getting accepted...

it's highly unlikely that you will get an interview anywhere, let alone an acceptance. Good luck! 3.999 science, slacker! 4.0 or bust!!
 
Damn, at first, i thought this guy was a troll. But since he says he's not, he can't possibly be a troll.
 
What happened to the other two points?
 
thank you, all, for your inputs. please keep them coming, for i am lost whether or not i should give up my hope in medicine.
 
if he wasnt a troll he would say "what is a troll?...i dont even know what that is!" i love that. its so sweet and innocent. it always makes me trust. 🙄

Are you serious??? I'd say you have a pretty good chance. 🙂

At first I thought this was a play on DrJohnSez, but damn, people like this make me rethink med school. Why again are you questioning your stats? You have a freaking 43!!!!!!

Law school here I come.
 
I'd recommend a good pre-med advisor to help you overcome the deficiencies in your application. MeowMix Counseling Services is now available; my rates are modest ($1000 for the first hour, $750/hr after that). Please PM me, I can help you achieve your dream of acceptance to med school.

because HeySha, quite simply, i have less than perfect numbers... as you can see by my shamful "S"...

Please quit patronizing me.
 
Well, I have a 44T and am worried because I didn't get the full 15 on PS............
cough *troll* cough cough
PLEASE people! I don't know whether to laugh or be disgusted, or both.
 
I don't see why you people are insinuating that he's a troll, he's already said that he's not. Anyhow, I doubt that you have a 44 because the MCAT staff has said no one's scored above 43 recently, but since this is the internet, I'll believe you.
 
i thought troll feeding was frowned upon in the forums....the OP is just trying to get a rise out of you gullibillies.

I'd be more worried about the 43. The S isn't *too* bad, but the 43 is pretty pathetic.

44? i got a 43! not 44. if i had one more point, i probably won't be as worried...
 
Do I have a chance?QUOTE said:
I am suprised no one else picked up on this. A 3.999GPA is imposible. In order to get that GPA, you have have to take thousands of hours.

If you are going to troll, at least make it possible

I wasn't refering to your post, i was refering to the poster above me.

For Christ sakes woman! NO he's not serious! Damn!

I believe everything I read. Coincidentally Pinkertinkle, seems to sleep with my mom quite a bit. Again... he's written this in text, so it cannot be debated. (You should read how many times he's claimed to have slept w/ my father!)
 
Hahaha, this thread is hilarious. :laugh: :laugh:

There's always one that actually takes the bait :laugh:
 
Hey i77ac, you posted in the Umich thread right? I wonder if Umich gave you an auto-acceptance with that kind of numbers 😀 .

Anyhow, this joke wasn't as funny as it could have been. We need better, more devoted trolls!

lol, :laugh: :laugh: well that was really the way i felt when i entered the world of internet message boards. and yes, in life, in general, i am pretty naive 😳 , or sweet and innocent, however you want to look at it 😉
 
the writing portion of the mcat is the single most important part. in YOUR case, I would write the mcat again, and get a T in the writing sample. that S is really going to hurt you. getting a T should better your chances in the med application process! :luck:

btw, this advice is serious! you can tell because i just said so
 
Be sure to post this on the MCAT board, maybe they can help you over there.

This is really, weird, i77ac, because I have the TOTALLY same stats! ahhh!

I was really worried, too, so I talked to my premed advisor. :idea: She suggested that I should look into doing postbac work and consider retaking the MCAT. 😱

I don't know if I will for sure. The only other recourse I have is to try and sleep with the adcoms. 😕

Beats work, right?

hahahah....hilarious.

nice to see SDNers have a sense of humor
 
Ya I am pretty worried with my 46 (Got the extra credit questions), and my 4.1 GPA (same reason). Hopefully I will get in somewhere, but it's a long shot... maybe I should file an APP with McDonalds.
 
By the sound of this thread, I am beginning to think that my chances with my 16/2.1 are going to be fairly low. Maybe NASA is hiring.
