I'm applying for 08', 3.7 GPA 30+ mcat, EC's+++, URM. I thought I had an excellent chance at most schools until I saw the misdemeanors disclosure clause on AMCAS. I got a misdemeanor possession of marijuana paraphernalia in the first month of my freshman year (4 yrs ago). I basically changed my "ways", and haven't got in trouble since, plus that was my only violation ever..for anything, not even a speeding ticket. I know this is a MAJOR red flag for schools. Do you know anyone who has gotten into med school with a misdemeanor drug charge? How does this charge affect the residency or licensure process?
