Especially since it's the older version! Id have to look mine up 2002 feels like ancient history.
So if I had below average SAT scores but fairly competitive MCAT Scores, a medical school won't not accept me for that SAT score?
You resuscitated mrh125 for this!
He did not.
Not surprising.
Do a search for streampaw if you're looking for an sdn legend.
You still have a year or two left in high school, right? That means you have 4-6 years left until you start applying to medical school. That is a ton of time. Please don't worry about your odds of acceptance yet. If you want to research the medical field and do medicine-related extracurriculars to see if the field is right for you, that would be an awesome idea. However, you really don't need to be thinking about how likely you are to get accepted yet. If you are this worried about your application 4-6 years out, you'll be going wild with stress and anxiety by the time you're actually applying.
Thanks for the advice! Yeah I know my worrying is a really bad habit and I need to get rid of it! 🙁But I'm slowly starting to find my love and passion for medicine while volunteering at my local hospital every summer, so I don't wanna let my worries get the best of goal! LOL But thank you for the advice it is greatly appreciated!
Trying a little to hard to craft a personal statement, sweetie……..

Christ, you’re in high school? You’re going to have to find another clinical experience in college to pitch to committees, so don’t hyped up about your high school volunteer position lol 😉
What? Lol. I was just saying how I'm beginning to find stuff that I actually find interesting, and the health career is that! Majority of people at my age don't really even know what they want to do in college and for their career. I'm not trying to commit myself to anything. High school is about figuring out who you are, and what your interests are am I right? I'm doing the high school volunteer position because I find it FUN and I enjoy it, helping my community, not just for college applications and committees... Is it bad too have a little enthusiasm (I didn't intend to seem as a "try hard") as I am only 15 years old, turning 16 in a couple days? 😉
Everyone is entitled to their own opinions🙂
Don't feel bad about your ambition and interest in careers. It is awesome that you are already attempting to discern which career is best for you. If you enjoy volunteering in the hospital, you should absolutely continue to do that. I hope you don't get discouraged by anyone telling you that you shouldn't be considering careers yet or participating in activities that you find enjoyable. Continue to pursue your interests and discern a career in the medical field, but just don't let your discernment turn into stress and anxiety over an application that you won't be filling out for another 5 or 6 years. I wish you all the best.
Thank you so much for the support😀! And yeah I will try not let these other accounts hinder or stop me from trying to reach my goals! I know my anxiety and neuroticism is unhealthy and detrimental to my studies, goals, and overall being! So I am trying to be more calm and trying so my relaxation techniques lol. I am continuing to talk to patients to help them feel better while I volunteer and enjoy helping my community at the same time! I really appreciate the response and wish you the best as well
