I've been on SDN since my freshman year of college and I owe everything I've learned about the premed experience to SDN.
I made a vow a year or so ago that I wanted my experience to be documented so that if I do well I can help others and that if I do bad I can help others to not make the same mistakes.
I'm making this post pre-maturely prior to even submitting my application for a couple reasons but mostly due to knowing that if I fail I will have a propensity to not log in again due to shame. I have seen many brilliant people on SDN come and go without a trace due to unsuccessful cycles.
It's okay to not make it into medical school, it's fine to know that it's highly likely you'll have to apply again, and it's perfectly okay to know that in a sea of very high achievers you're mediocre.
That's all I suppose. I likely will continue logging in but if I disappear I thought I should let you all know.
