1) No. Far from it.1) Question goes, is this a disaster for me to leave a group like this?
2) Will a mysterious call from adcoms come to these people, and will what the potentially say about me basically seal a rejection no matter what?
3) Should I suck it up and stay, or can I move on to the new research opportunity in my field of interest?
They gave examples of how several undergrads that had worked under them applied and it seems every med school would give these MDs a call before making a decision. The call, or email, would go something like "what are you opinions on this applicant because you are well known in the medical world and have worked with this student" and the people would answer that yes the applicant is good or no, don't let them in. This story has been repeated to me numerous times.
This^^^^^^. I keep seeing a certain guy on the news repeating known BS every night as well, because he apparently wants to brainwash people into believing it by the power of repetition! It's probably meant to keep you loyal and in line. If it were true, it would be true everywhere, and we'd all know this is how these things work!!!They keep repeating it because it isn't true. I'm completely serious.
You'll be fine.Well, I just sent the email today. The most respectful and sincere email I have ever written and it feels like a huge burden off my chest. I wish them nothing but the best success and I really hope I just didn't cancel my future. thank you guys, and I really hope what you all said about those quality control insider calls and whatnot isn't as real as I once thought. Thank you- veer_
