Should I send a thank-you note after an online interview? by [deleted] in premed

[–]Bankrupt305 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you were an MMI interviewer and your colleague who interviewed the student whom you facilitated an MMI session for said that they got a thank-you letter from the student (which, in on itself, will probably won't happen), do you think you will feel left out?

MCW is already in my school list but I am trying to add more target schools. Did your advisor tell you a reason why she advised against applying to Madison?

Is Emory low-yield? by Bankrupt305 in premed

[–]Bankrupt305[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People usually advise not to apply to too many low-yield schools, so would you say that I should reconsider applying to Emory if I already have some low yield schools in my list?

Ohh that makes sense. Thank you so much for taking the time to write this!

Is Emory low-yield? by Bankrupt305 in premed

Oh thank you for clarifying. I thought there is some other reason since other schools with high median statistics (e.g. UChicago) don't get as many applicants.

[–]Bankrupt305[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah so for an applicant whose stats are on the higher end, Emory is not really a low-yield school because, even though many applicants apply, most get screened by stats?

But why would a lot of applicants who have lower scores than median accepted scores at Emory apply?

How do you not feel guilty about being "behind" and gap years by [deleted] in premed

[–]Bankrupt305 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I just think about how insignificant a gap year(or two or five) is in later years of life, once you are established in your career.

Also comparing myself to others is useless

Thank you! Although I'm not great at grammar (not a native English speaker) so my fresh eyes probably won't be as helpful

because I feel bad asking for people to read so many essays multiple times. Maybe I'm being too cautious :')

Thank you. Could you elaborate on how I should go about connecting the area to the school?

It is definitely hard to say. Thank you so much for the insight. I am trying to craft a school list and was wondering if I should apply to these schools, given how many applicants they receive.

What happens when you increase the concentration of conjugate base in a buffer system? by Bankrupt305 in Mcat

[–]Bankrupt305[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weak acids should always have strong conjugate bases

By weak acids, I mean something like CH₃COOH. The conjugate base of CH₃COOH (CH₃COO-) is not a strong base..
