Please and really please, don't take this thread the wrong way. I am only wanting to canvass here to see how (<3.7/<520, or LM <75) people are doing.

Tfw 515+ isn't even considered high stats what even...

edit: this is clearly a parody thread. Everyone high, mid, low stats please share what you enjoy about schools!

LOL 🤣

My first interview was at my top choice state school two months ago. I’m totally in love with it and so pumped about it’s unique curriculum. Feels like Oct 15 has been a lifetime away and still is!!

Same!!! Best interview experience was also at my state school. I loved how I knew the entire building and how frank and down to earth the med students were.

Very different vibe from private schools that felt way too formal and rehearsed.

That’s awesome! Could you also hear back Oct 15 or how does that school work? I only applied to MD schools in TX so kinda clueless about other timelines.

Yes so traffic rules allow us to know on October 15. I very likely won't know until late October for this specific school based on the school specific threads from last year.

Edit: you're so lucky to be TX resident

Alright, this is your month!!!! 11 days until we refresh our emails every 4 seconds.

Haha thank you. Didn’t have a choice with TX but got very lucky.

Edit: potentially identifying lol

IDK, intentional imperfections to highlight imperfections seems pretentious to be *resentment for the lack of a secondary burns brighter*

So, basically it's modeled after an old church that no longer exists in Italy. There are 365 imperfections to show that only god is perfect (including you, Pat lol). Also, it's really pretty.
 
Checking in ORM with average stats, LM 69-70. My top choice is any school relatively close to home and in a fun area or city. Pass/fail and systems-based curriculum is a huge plus as well. This cycle has definitely exceeded my wildest expectations and I feel extremely lucky to have 6 MD II’s so far. Hoping it works out!

My top choice is wherever I get in! LM 70 checking in with 9 MD IIs, 1 DO II - I feel extremely fortunate and idk how or why this is happening haha

Same, with my LM of 70.5 and 9 MD II. No idea what has happened. My premed advisor at my undergrad told me not to hold my breath, told me that students from my school do not have good luck in admissions. I truly expected to be one of those "3 II -> 1 A" stories, at best.

My top choices are currently toss-ups between EVMS, Cinci, and Wake Forest. Although, EVMS is the only one that has shown me any love so far.

I don't mean to be dramatic but if I don't get accepted to my top choice I'll withdraw all my apps and live on the streets for the rest of my life

You think I should tell my schools this in an update or wait until my interview?
 
One of my state schools is my current post II top choice. I'm getting more and more nervous by the day since I haven't gotten an II since the last day in July. Hoping that I will get one or two more this cycle to increase my overall chances but would be ecstatic to get into either school I interviewed at!

Ugh. Getting a flurry of IIs early (late July/early August) really got my hopes up, since everyone assured me that it was a good sign I'd get more IIs in the "peak months." Haven't heard anything besides Rs and holds from schools since mid-August, including one from my in-state alma mater 🙁

Very, very fortunate and grateful for the IIs I have gotten, however. I'd be happy at any one of them 🙂
