Reapplying to different schools

[centralline]

Will schools be suspicious if I apply to their school next year, but didn't this year? Will I have to answer all kinds of questions about why didn't you apply here last year and do you really want to go here?

they'll probably ask you why you didn't apply there the first time around. just have a good answer prepared

I dont think they'll even know if you applied for the cycle before. I don't think the places I interviewed this year had any idea that I applied last year, unless I specifically applied there last year. No school mentioned it at all. Hope this helps.

Nope, they don't know that you applied previously unless you were matriculated by a medical school. I know of colleges that keep applications from the prior year. I think the AMCAS asks if you have applied to that school previously too. Adcoms can see that.
