nicely done MSTPbound! I was going to offer to read your essays since I just went through the MD/PhD process last year, but it looks like you're really on the ball! 🙂

Thanks a lot PBandJ. Yeah I was lucky enough to find a number of quality readers both within the forums and without. It's really tough choking down 3 tons of humble pie :laugh:, but at the end it was really good for me. Ever feel like no matter how many schools you apply to, it might not be enough? :scared:

29? holy
I have a mere 24.
It's like 900+ for the stupid primary application.

You guys are insane. I just broke down and used another credit card to add four more schools. I think 14 is enough for me... I feel like I've applied "broadly" enough now; 50/50 split between "reach" schools and ever-so-slightly-less-of-a-reach schools.

By the way... does being a 1,000-year-old grandmaster of Shaolin White Lotus Everlasting Spring Ginger Fist count as an EC?

i think the fact that you're 1,000 years old will get you in because you are definitely what they call "unique"

What's the basic idea here? 2 profs, one science, one non?
Click to expand...

I think it's 2 science, one non for most prehealth advisors. My problem is that my science recs are dated back to 2003 because those were my old letters from that other cycle.

We'll see if I can muster the will to finish the Duke Secondary.

i heard the duke secondary is as fun as a barrel of monkeys!

i actually think that expression is strange. Just like 'shooting fish in a barrel' is strange also.
