So I submitted my primary late October and most of my secondaries already (LECOM, NYCOM, WVSOM, VCOM, OSUCOM) in early November (2nd-10th) and am planning to submit a few more (both ATSU SOMA/Kirksville, Burrell, maybe 1 or 2 others) and am wondering if I should bother sending a LOI on the former schools in the next week or two.
My stats are 3.37 cgpa 3.8 spga ( upward trend, bio major, will graduate with >3.4 maybe 3.5 if I get only 1 or 2 B's in my last semester and the rest A's ) and 501 MCAT with a 121 in cars.
thousands of research hours with 2 posters, good clinical exp/hours, DO and MD letter+shadowing, good nonclinical exp/hours, club president, on sports team
The reason I ask is because I called one of the schools about where my application is in the process and the adviser on the phone told me to try updating my primary or sending a LOI around december if I dont hear back. Is it a good idea or would this make me seem desperate? I know my MCAT is kind of low and I will retake to bring up my CARS if I dont get in this cycle.
I also have a friend that submitted a letter and he got an interview shortly after and was wondering if I should do the same. What is the best thing to write on the letter if i were to submit it?
