There doesn't seem to be a lot of information out there on the internet that is directed towards MD/PhD reapplicants, so I am asking reapplicant-specific questions here to learn a little more about the process. If any of you can answer any of these questions, I would really appreciate it.
1. What do programs look for in a reapplicant?
2. How do schools go about scrutinizing our application? Is our application scrutinized any differently than first time applicants?
3. Do schools keep copies of our old application and compare it to our new one? How do they judge if we have "improved enough"?
4. Are reapplicants held at a higher or different standard because they are more familiar with the process and have had a couple extra years to work on their app?
Any other helpful comments or suggestions would be awesome.
Thanks!!
