Hi everyone. I've been trying to formulate a plan B for what I'll do for a year if I have to reapply, if only to alleviate some of the stress this cycle of "what am I going to do if I don't get in?" I applied late with average stats, so its possible I'm heading towards reapplication.
I'll have my master's in biomed engineering, but most of the jobs are career positions. I don't feel right lying to a company saying that I intend to stay with them when I would have already resubmitted AMCAS before my first day of work. I'd prefer to find something that is geared towards ~1 year committment that allows me to pay my bills and is somehow related to science, engineering, medicine, etc.
Does anyone have any ideas of something (programs, etc) I could look into? For example, there's this thing called Teach America where you teach math/science in underserved areas and you get paid, but they want a two year committment, not one. One idea I had is staying on at my university to get an joint MBA (it would take a little less than a year to complete that).
Seriously, it would just help me sleep better at night knowing about different options I can do if reapplication becomes a reality. Ideas? Thoughts?
