Hi.

My daughter(sophomore) applied to an Early Assurance Program for a medical school and she finished interview yesterday.
She told me the interview was good and they interested to her a lot. And they says she has a lot of experience in medical field and volunteer. But, when the end of interview, the interviewer says " Even if you do not get in to the EAP at this time, do not regret because base on your experience and sGPA(3.95), if you going to do same as last two years, you will be admitted several good medical school when you graduate" What is this mean?
Is my daughter rejected already?
There are two interviews, 1st is college level and if passed, 2nd is medical school.

Thank you for all the answers.

The interviewer was probably just trying to temper expectations so that there were no really upset kids (and apparently parents) should things simply not work out, probably just a bit of insurance policy to avoid fallout later. Either way there is nothing you can do to change it now so what happens happens.

Thank you very much for the advise. I just want to give an advise to my daughter to not to regret and keep doing what she need to do. She is only 19 years.

Hi,
This is a normal thing to be told when interviewing for any academic program or job position. It does not mean that your daughter has already been rejected. He just told her "Don't worry, you're a very competitive applicant and even if you don't get in here, you'll get in when you apply to medical school as a regular applicant." If she doesn't end up getting the EAP it's not the end of the world.

Hi. Thank you very much for your input. I am an immigrant Asian and does not have any academic experience in America. I am going to tell her that it is part of competition and routine. It is starting not ending. Thank you again.

Exactly. 95% of pre-med students do not even apply for early assurance programs. Don't worry, she'll still be a doctor if she keeps up the hard work.

Translation = her GPA is good enough for medical school

Current attending college have a medical school and she really want to get in there. Thank you again to let me know.

It means that even with no success on the EAP, if she applies when she graduates college, she'll be accepted. This assume that she will do as well by then as she's doing now.

Capeesh?

TL, DR: she's a good student and competitive for med school.

Those all replies will help me and my daughter a lot. I will eat a dinner tonight with my daughter and will discuss this conversation and start again.
Also, I learned a word "Capeesh"
Thank you very much!

Your daughter is doing great so far, OP. Tell her to keep up the great work and do well on the MCAT. If she can do this and have some ECs under her belt, she will be quite competitive for medical school. She can even join the SDN community! Overall, this site is quite helpful. Best of luck to her.

I am doing her job now so she can spend more time to study. One day I will let her join(may be already did) and discuss and share her experience with other peoples.
Thanks a lot.

Oi. Managed life seeks to manage lives. The irony of it perhaps makes early decision programs... less about early decision and more about early capitulation to elder decisions.

EAPs don't have a lot of slots. They're just saying that if they don't take her, she shouldn't worry too much, since she'll get into medical school regardless.

so is the post about "I am going to tell her that it is part of competition and routine". The stereotypicalness of it burns.
