Last year I applied for regular MD admission and then later realized that I wanted to do the MD/PhD and had limited funds to continue the cylce so I decided to not submit any of the secondaries that I received from schools after the primary step. I figure that most schools do not screen and just send secondaries to a majority of their applicants for profit gain and do not scrutinize an applicants application until the secondary and other supporting materials (recommendations, "secondary", etc..) are submitted. Based on this, I was wondering if it would be okay to re-use my personal statement since it was actually never put to use by my standards. Also I mean, I have to write two other essays for this particular track anyways right? So I mean how much harm could this to do to me? Should I even consider myself a re-applicant in this cycle since I did not submit any secondaries?
Guys I would really appreciate a plethora of ideas on how to resolve this situation, because I feel my current personal statement is pretty good and has garnered pretty good praise from a diverse audience telling me not to change it. Help me out here, thanks.
