Hello all!
I'm pretty sure all sdn users are familiar with the old saying, "wait lists 3 a doctor you will be"
I was wondering if this is still true during the COVID app cycles! Despite my low stats (LM 65~66) as an Asian applicant, I am grateful to have received 3 MD interviews (2 OOS, 1 IS). However, I am currently all WLed to the schools which is not surprising considering my low stats where both my GPA and MCAT are on the 10th percentile for all the schools. For DO schools, I got 2 II and got WLed because I submitted the app pretty late and correspondingly interviewed late where I was explicitly told that I was interviewing for the WL. Sitting on 5 WLs, I really do hope getting an A from the WL, but also am really losing hope and was wondering if I should be preparing for a re-app or not.
(Just in case anybody says that my poor interview skills might have been the reason behind all the WLs... Don't really think interviewing skills were much of an issue because I got so much love back from my interviewers where they would give me their personal emails to keep in touch and etc.)
