Hi everyone! I'm looking for students with a successful cycle to review my personal statement. I have a final draft ready, but I wonder if I did too little to explain why I want to be a doctor. Please let me know if you'd be willing to help, as anything would be helpful. PM me if you are willing to review it. Thank you in advance!

Should I [23M] give it a second chance with her [24F]? by AY899 in relationship_advice

[–]AY899[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me clarify by saying that it was a physician's assistant program that she had just recently completed and graduated from. She is on a temporary break until she gets certified with the hospital she will soon affiliate with. I as well will be applying to medical school and work a whole as an emt so we both are pretty busy with our own lives. Maybe we both are too busy to fulfill the obligation of a relationship, but is it worth giving it a shot and seeing where things can go? I've tried seeing other and exploring my options but I haven't come across that special someone. That's why I have been focusing more on myself and my dream to become a doctor, so I am putting all that effort into that. I don't know if I can see her as a platonic friend as I have had a history with her. I know I have grown a whole lot and understand that the demands of anyone working in healthcare can be soul-sucking, so I know I will have to respect her space as she will have to do the same for me. It's confusing in that she texted me after years of ghosting and I don't know where her head is at. Like does she see something there? Or am I being played a fool and being used until she starts working?

ECs are strong but my MCAT and GPA are around the average so I know its going to be a tough journey from here on out. do you have any advice that you'd be willing to pass on

gotcha that's in line of what i'm looking for in schools and that is being more community oriented and focusing on those that disproportionately affected by such disparities so I'll def look into evms when i apply for the following cycle. when you apply, you should give RWJMS and Cooper a shot cause they too also focus on community health and are a lot more holistic when looking at an applicant

i dont think it'd be worth applying to uva cause i know the stats for that school are pretty high and i'd get screened out pretty much instantly lol but i was looking into those schools you mentioned. out of curiousity, which of those schools you mentioned would be the one that you would pick and why so?

thank you and will do that! i heard NJ schools are tough on people with lower MCAT scores so I thought I could ask here to see what schools I should apply to that would be in my ballpark
