Hi everyone, I am in a bit of a confusing situation that I would love some insight on. I am currently waitlisted at two schools and waiting to hear from two others - no acceptances yet. In November of this current cycle, when I still had no interview invites, I decided to apply to a brand new medical school, and ended up getting an interview there (this is one of the schools I am waiting to hear from). However, after learning more about the school in the interview (mostly about aspects of it being a new school) and doing some reflecting, I am not sure it is a great fit for me - I think I would rather reapply than attend here. I am considering withdrawing my application from this school post-interview but pre-decision to avoid potentially reapplying with an acceptance.
Given this, my main question is:
If I withdraw my application pre-decision, will this look bad? Will other med schools be able to find out about this either this cycle or next if I reapply?
I of course don't want to jeopardize my chances at med school - but I really don't think this school would be a good fit for me. Would love to hear some people's thoughts - thank you so much!
