should i go back?

[AbujaMan]

so i interviewed at my number one choice early october. the problem was, i missed the tour bc my interview time was messed up. the secretary told me that if i wanted to make up the tour, i could. I sort of didnt want to because i've already seen most of the school and would be missing a day of classes for it. my friend thinks that i should go for the interview because maybe it would show my interest (...somehow) and possibly up my chances at an acceptance (the school isnt rolling so i dont find out for at least 2 months i think anyways).

do you think it would be worth it for me to go, to call the secretary and say since im really interested in the school i wanted to make sure i went on the tour? or am i a paranoid premed and it doesnt really matter?

thanks

Yes I think you should go re-schedule a visit to the school. You will be kicking yourself later if you got rejected and thought you maybe could of improved your image a bit with the secretaries. As they say, everyone seems to have a say in the admissions review, so you might as well try to make secondly good impressions on the secretaries and med. students.

Eh, you might as well. I guess there's an outside chance it'll be a positive factor in your app. At the very least, you'll probably get some inside info on your top choice.

if its your #1 school, then surely it cant hurt. You show your face again, and they may just open up your file to refresh their memory as to who you are

Of course I'm going to say you are a crazy pre-med and this won't make a difference.
But, I would go back -- especially if it was my first choice haha.
