I am a career changer (12 years in finance) halfway through my post-bacc. I have been working in emergency medicine research for the past year while taking classes and recently found out that I had four abstracts accepted for presentation (I am third author on them) at two upcoming emergency medicine conferences. Grades continue to be good, etc. I plan to apply in June of '08.
My question - I've met several admissions folks over the past year at various events. Can I touch base with them via email to update them on the abstracts/presentations and upcoming publication prospects or will that come off as pushy and annoying? As a former banker, it's my (learned) instinct to self-promote, but I realize that this is a different world.
Have you been in this situation? What is your advice?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
