Hello all,
I previously posted in the MD/DO re-app and Faha gracious responded. I was also hoping I could have a few more voices of input.
I am a re-app. I applied during the COVID cycle to 11 MD, 10 DO. My MCAT was postponed due to COVID so I submitted my entire app in late August. I did not receive any interviews, but did receive several interview holds (I know those don't mean anything).
I already submitted my primary application for the 2022 cycle for verification. I will be receiving an Addendum by my Post-Bacc program for my previously written Committee Letter. This addendum will feature what I did during the COVID year.
CA resident; Undergrad & Post-Bac in PA
3.4cGPA/sGPA 3.2: AO GPA 3.91. sGPA trend (2.41>2.97>3.13>3.55). Post-Bac sGPA 3.76.
MCAT 1st attempt: 505 (125/125/126/129) 2nd attempt 511 (129/126/128/128)
Ethnicity: white (ORM), I identify as a member of the LGBT community and write about it in my activities section.
Post-Bac Institution Committee Letter
Clinical experience:
