The OP has posted in just about all of them, so that could be a large part of the problem.
 
Any thread started by the "Very Happy Chinese Girl" and how studying chinese culture and language is an auto acceptance to any school

No way! Those were the best threads ever! Very informative. And she waa accepted to Harvard with a low MCAT without even interviewing, only by volunteering once a month in Chinese community. Amazing success story! 😀
 
I hope that the creation of this thread will reduce the amount of senseless, and illogical premed threads and begin creating threads like the poop hotdog or worst admissions.
 
any DO vs MD thread should get an honorable mention

the purpose of such a thread is for high entertainment value. thanks OP! 👍

Interesting the way you've managed to give a positive spin to an other wise useless thread 😉 Reading these, I've just wasted a good 40 minutes I will never get back. thanks?
