i thought this was going to be a poll with multiple chhoices, but ok, i'll respond anyway

1. #1 reason: financial awards need to be evaluated

2. want to evaluate after attending second look weekends

3. significant other plays a major role in decison and need to totally discuss it with her/him before making a decision

4. want to analyze and compare programs, match lists, etc etc

5. have a conflict with start date of progam and need to work that out first

6. have personal / private reason why some school may no longer be feasible but need to fully evaluate that before eliminating it

7. To hog spots so other people cannot get them.

DISCLAIMER: This is not my opinion, but the opinion of many applicants on this forum, as seen often in posts throughout the interview season.

I was pre-allopathic when I was in college.

No need to reply......

you're really out of line; anyone who really believes that does not have what it takes to become a physician.

It was actually kind of written in a sarcastic tone. I completely agree with you. However, if you'll look on the pre-med forums during winter, you will find many threads complaining about this very thing.
