Hello,

I just had two interviews at two MD schools. One of the schools is fairly prestigious and well known and the other one is very new and not well established. I recently got rejected from the school that is not well established and have to wait until March to hear back from my dream school. Is it fair to say that I have no chance at my dream school, since I got rejected from a much lower tier MD school? I felt like the interview for the school I got rejected at was not that great, and felt really good about the interview at my favorite school (very conversational, felt I made a good case at what I can offer the school/how I fit well). I actually practiced and put in a lot of time preparing for that interview. I know I am probably overthinking things, but you know how it is I would appreciate any insight

Obviously not. You answered your own question in the following sentence. I think you're making this thread because you're nervous and looking for reassurance so there it is. A rejection at one school has nothing to do with your chances at a different school...
 
Jesus dude literally no one knows what will happen, how is "fair to say" anything. Stop trying to predict and harp on something the future and just live your life in the moment.
 
You might as well try predicting the numbers for the next winning Lotto ticket.

Do yourself a favor and stop engaging in fool's errands. People tend to be terrible judges of their interview performances.

Start working on Plan B and hope for the best.

I got into MSUCOM, but would rather go to an MD school that isn't so expensive for OOS that's my main concern
