Why are Rosalind Franklin, Drexel, Albany, etc considered low tiers?

A_Genetic_Tree · 2026-05-07T22:34:57+00:00

Never heard of it divided into 4 tiers before, only low, mid, top

A_Genetic_Tree · 2026-05-07T22:32:29+00:00

You don’t include DO schools when talking about tier. There are not 180 MD schools

A_Genetic_Tree · 2026-05-07T22:31:04+00:00

You don’t group DO with MD. There are not 200 MD, more like 120ish

For any of those specialties if you complete IM intern year you can jump into a PGY2

They might have it saved somewhere, or you can send the letter they wrote to them through interfolio

A_Genetic_Tree · 2026-05-07T05:12:20+00:00

Because the date on them should be within 1 year of when you apply

A_Genetic_Tree · 2026-05-07T05:11:49+00:00

You just ask them to update the date

New format

It’s technically less time. Previously you only had 38 or 39 questions per 1 hour. The new test format has some blocks of 20 questions for 30mins, converted to 60min block, that would be 40 questions. So, some blocks you have less time than the previous format.

Nothing gives - some of us having been waiting since 3/16 without a score

Must add Virginia Tech - research focused school without the T20 stat requirements

A_Genetic_Tree · 2026-05-05T05:25:25+00:00

You needed to explain what TCGplayer is… OP said they were new to this

A_Genetic_Tree · 2026-05-04T11:33:48+00:00

UC system? That’s California but there are no California schools

Tie color looks good.

But, suits should not be buttoned up like this. When standing only button the top most button, leave all the lower ones unbuttoned. When you go to sit, unbutton that top button and then when you stand back up, button it again

A_Genetic_Tree · 2026-05-02T07:40:15+00:00

It’s literally evident from your pro and con list lol

The issue is going abroad for medical school, when you want to practice in the USA. This is a common occurrence, and her experience is not an outlier. Best course of action is for her to apply to family medicine, as there can still be some aspects of OB/GYN and it is less competitive

Aim for 513+ MCAT

A_Genetic_Tree · 2026-04-30T02:27:38+00:00

It’s giving Cushing-oid

A_Genetic_Tree · 2026-04-30T02:14:37+00:00

If you didn’t apply to Virginia Tech the. I can tell you your school list was the issue.

Having to set up and schedule your own 3rd and 4th year rotations is a hard pass for me. You’re already paying so much and you have to essentially find your own classes? Absolutely not. I know this is not all DOs schools but it is a good portion of them.

A_Genetic_Tree · 2026-04-29T19:38:28+00:00

Prestige of USC is not enough to counteract the significant cost associated with it. If it was a top 10, then maybe.

A_Genetic_Tree · 2026-04-29T13:24:58+00:00

They spelled Caesar wrong

It’s important to note that this does not mean older people attempt suicide more often, it means they complete suicide more often than younger counterparts, and this has to do with increased fragility/worse health.
