I see plenty of pretty competitive candidates on this list. Also, my ECs are pretty poor.

What are your ECs?

 

[JohnnyDoc]

~100 hours clinical volunteering, ~120 nonclinical volunteering, ~30 hours shadowing DO+MD, couple leadership positions, 2 and a half year of research but nothing to show for, no work experiences.

Yeah, dude- you're fine. Those are solid ECs You have sufficient hours that cover all the necessary bases:
clinical experiences
nonclinical volunteering
shadowing
research
With a 3.5/3.5/30 and solid ECs with everything covered, you stand a good chance across the board. Just articulate your experiences well in secondaries/ interviews and you are all set. Nothing remarkable, but provided you have no red flags (institutional actions, criminal record, etc) @JohnnyDoc you are definitely not an underdog. In fact, on the DO side you are a pretty strong candidate.

Wait, how are you an underdog? Your stats are above average on all counts. Your EC's are in no way, shape or form "poor."

Most of my secondaries don't even ask about publications or research experience, and ask if you have more than 40 hours of volunteering...

To the new MCAT takers...
I received a rejection from Campbell this morning. They said they were looking for an old MCAT of 24 or above and new MCAT of 500 or above. According to percentiles a 498 (what I got) is the same as a 24, but it is not being taken this way evidently. Just a heads up! 🙂

Ouch...and you have a high GPA too.

[mathnerd88]

Has anyone with a sGPA below 3.1 received any secondaries? I am worried that there is some secret GPA cutoff that I did not see... I know it is still very early in the cycle and I should not be the neurotic pre-med yet but I am just nervous

For some schools, yes. CUSOM screens out anything below a 3.2. Secondaries honestly don't mean much, because it is just extra money for the schools you're applying to. I wouldn't bank on getting in with a sGPA below 3.1 unless you have some crazy life story or have an insane MCAT score.

You mentioned that your GPA was 3.27 cGPA, 3.24 sGPA, 31 MCAT. Did your GPA drop?

To the new MCAT takers...
I received a rejection from Campbell this morning. They said they were looking for an old MCAT of 24 or above and new MCAT of 500 or above. According to percentiles a 498 (what I got) is the same as a 24, but it is not being taken this way evidently. Just a heads up! 🙂

NO!!!!!!!
Oh, wait, I ended up not applying there, but still, I really hope other schools don't do this!

This year, many schools have been increasing their minimum requirements for stats. I know my health professions office did in order to get a committee letter.

This year, many schools have been increasing their minimum requirements for stats. I know my health professions office did in order to get a committee letter.

I believe it too, but it breaks my heart. I was really aiming for at least a 500 on the new MCAT, and was crushed to have received just short of that, 498.

I hope that I can at the very least receive one or two interviews out of 22 applications this cycle. Fingers crossed really hard!

Haha, I started out with 20 applications, but I'm starting to feel like I may have overapplied.

So does anyone, including myself, on this list have a chance of making it? I keep hearing no and to not apply

 

[Mushy003]

Thanks to @OsteopathicHopeful for coming up with this idea!

This thread is meant to help each other through secondaries, interviews, and beyond I want us to be able to post anything and have similar individuals comment and provide feedback.

It is is reserved for those w/ less than a 24 MCAT or less than 3.25 sGPA or cGPA. It can be either of those particulars, or both. Additionally, I would consider those that have 6 or below within a subsection of the MCAT to be within the underdawg range as well.

Below is to help those who are applying this year with the new MCAT scoring system (the following assumptions are considered hypothetical as scoring scales vary from test date to test date):

Based on a hypothetical chart showing old (before 2015) MCAT conversions between the estimated scale score (1-15) and the percentiles of each of those scores (0-100), the 50th percentile is a composite score of around 25. So one could consider the individual scores within Verbal Reasoning, Biological Sciences, and Physical Sciences of 7-8 to be around the 50th percentile as well. So thus we can consider underdawgs to have a composite score that is below the 50th percentile (or around a 24).

So with that in mind, we can consider the 2015MCAT composite score of 500 to be the 50th percentile. So scores below 500 could be considered "underdawg" range (or individual scores below 125).....again, this is VERY hypothetical as percentiles vary slightly across test dates).

Perhaps the most difficult of having OK academic stats is getting through the primary and secondary screens to land and interview. In many cases, an interview is a subliminal message from the school that they believe you can succeed in the preclinical and clinical curriculum of medical school.

If you feel any additional information can be added to help those in this situation feel free to PM me or any of the other pre-DO mods.

So does anyone, including myself, on this list have a chance of making it? I keep hearing no and to not apply

I hope you at least submitted your primary. I have similar MCAT score and applied as early as possible. Unfortunately your GPA is on the lower side as well.
It is possible if you apply early and broadly to new schools.

 

[amd4332]

NO!!!!!!!
Oh, wait, I ended up not applying there, but still, I really hope other schools don't do this!

Agreed! Good luck 🙂

Hey guys any advice for me? 2.9 sGPA, 3.1 cGPA 28 mcat 2000+ hrs of clinical experience, lots of research, work with with autistic kids, 3.7 self constructed post bacc. Where do I stand?

 

[doccp]

What are new schools and low tier DO schools? If you know. I'm sure it's on here but terrible service in the OR

Not good. Your sGPA is below 3.0 which is pretty much a rejection at most schools. You have a decent MCAT score, but it won't make up for the bad sGPA.

You're pretty much not going to get any MD schools with that MCAT score. That is a killer for them. Don't waste your money applying to them.

For DO schools, you're also iffy. Those MCAT scores are still way below average, and adding on that you're an international applicant, you're going to have also a tough time getting into them. I would apply to the newer schools and apply more broadly. You should've applied to more DO schools and less MD schools, not the opposite.

You would have good chances for the PR MD schools, except U of PR which I believe only takes residents of PR.

Unfortunately, some of the schools on your list are out of reach. Rowan, PCOM, and Touro all look for high MCAT scores.

So is taking the mcat on August 22nd too late to apply for this cycle? I mean, I know it's late, but can you still get away with it or are you basically dead in the water?

So is taking the mcat on August 22nd too late to apply for this cycle? I mean, I know it's late, but can you still get away with it or are you basically dead in the water?

No. You are fine this cycle. Some schools haven't even sent out the secondary yet.

Well, my KCOM rejection letter said I didn't meet their cutoffs, so they're only looking at the "Overall" line items and not my UG 3.29s/3.22c. Thanks Liaison AACOMAS. LMU-DCOM is my final hope and then I'm calling it quits.

Pardon me, what exactly are the overall line items?

Pardon me, what exactly are the overall line items?

UG+PB+Grad. I was hoping that they'd just use the UG+PB line.

All classes taken including post-bacc, pro schools, grad schools, etc
