I dumped $2.2k into the new cycle and was accepted a few weeks after. RIP 30k pokecoins. I'll properly decline the interviews once class starts.
Damn. Congrats though!

If you don't mind me asking what is your BCP average and when did you submit your app?

My BCP rounds to a 3.1 :bucktooth:

But in all seriousness, my lower div BCP was fine, around 3.4-ish but I took lots of thermochem, physical chem, inorganic chem, biochem, and physical biochem (wtf) and got like straight B-'s on them, mostly because half my classmates were retaking the class and the grade distribution was more bimodal than a bactrian camel's hump. I got very few C's but my major was pretty damn rigorous TBH. I had no idea that ALL my non-engineering and earth sciences would be included as my BCP, but then again, that's it's called biology-chemistry-physics lol

Submitted my AADSAS like June 7, but I sent my UMinn secondary around early-mid July (I think the 10th but I forget exactly)

Nice! What date is yours?

September 19. Booked a hotel for the 18th and renting a car. You?


Edit: added submit dates

7th! Haven't booked anything yet (waiting for my new travel credit card to arrive) but I'm planning on doing air bnb and taking an uber. Unless I find cheaper means.

AirBnb is amazing (but mostly for places outside of North America, like Europe, Asia, etc...). I'd recommend comparing the prices on AirBnb with hotels in that area to make sure you're getting the best deal.

In the west coast, AirBnb is crazy expensive for example.

Thanks for the heads up! I'll definitely do my research before just booking out of the blue.
