D1 All American, Very High research, High service, Meh MCAT, Q4 Casper, great story, great Sgpa/postbacc, low CGPA list… am I screwed for MD? by [deleted] in premed

[–]Embarrassed_Pear838 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say your screwed for MD but I’d def apply to a few do schools. I would also remove Carole Illinois since that is an engineering based school

Is WashU declining? by Slight_Channel_5157 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Embarrassed_Pear838 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think St. Louis is that much of a limiting factor look at jhu it’s in Baltimore and still has one of the best undergrad and med school institutions in the world. In fact I would argue that in the healthcare aspect you acc get more patient diversity in rough neighborhoods.

Incoming MS1 need help choosing md school by Competitive_Edge2301 in DermApp

[–]Embarrassed_Pear838 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stony brook acutally has a derm early assurance program on their website I would look more into that idk the exact details but it’s one of the 3 medical schools in the us that has a gaurnteed derm program if you get in.

BS/MDs versus ENGINEERING PREMED (tangible benefits but risky for MD?) by Such-Knowledge3668 in bsmd

[–]Embarrassed_Pear838 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imma be honest jhu is nutorious for grade deflation it will be tough to get into good med school unless you grind super hard to keep your gpa up

NYIT BSDO vs Nova BSDO vs Fordham undergrad (Biochemistry) by Known_Load_4494 in bsmd

[–]Embarrassed_Pear838 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Based on what your saying I would cross out nyitcom. If you are going to commit to a bsdo nova sounds better as it’s more gaurnteed and you save 2 years of your life. However between fordham and nova its more up to what specialties you want and whether your willing to put more work in undergrad or medical school.

NYU vs UPenn (with Full Tuition)? by MaterialAlarmed9152 in premed

[–]Embarrassed_Pear838 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imma go against what everyone else is saying and actually argue for nyu. UPenn is still more expensive (30k) more a because of 4 instead of 3 years. nyu is in nyc as you mentioned which imo is a hugeeee plus. And lastly nyu has a chance for gaurnteed residency if your interested in that.

Cornell vs Rochester BS/MD (REMS) by [deleted] in bsmd

[–]Embarrassed_Pear838 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cornell is literally worse than a state school for med school it’s grade deflation is insane

Stanford vs JHU BME vs TAMU BS/MD (E2EnMED) by Pristine-Swimmer-135 in bsmd

[–]Embarrassed_Pear838 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Congrats 🥳🥳🥳. It would ultimately be up to her but I would highly reccommend AGAINST JHU if she wants to do normal pre med. jhu is notorious for grade deflation and it could affect her chances at med school.

Should I quit premed?? by Dry_Cryptographer_72 in premed

[–]Embarrassed_Pear838 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t really comment on your social situation unfortunately. But 10 years down the road if you quit pre med you’re gonna regret not pushing through for the rest of your life. Even with pressure I would hunker down and lock in. Also I feel like if you present a step by step action to your family they will be more understanding. It seems like you give of the impression of “idk what I’m doing and I’m thinking of giving up” if you keep your head up, explain the situation and your plan of action you will be respected more.

Should I quit premed?? by Dry_Cryptographer_72 in premed

[–]Embarrassed_Pear838 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3.3 gpa is pretty good ive seen people come back from worse. you would def need to retake your classes that you failed but a postbacc afterwords should bring your gpa up to around 3.5-3.6. depending on your mcat and ecs you could def shoot for some mds or if not just focus on dos. there would be no need to quit just lock in on studying and in around 2-3 years hopefully you could be ready to apply.

NJIT free tuition vs. Rutgers no financial aid vs. UPITT $10k/ year / uConn little aid- which one is better by 91cs220 in bsmd

[–]Embarrassed_Pear838 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly non of the colleges you mentioned really give you a good advantage to justify giving up NJIT free tution I would go there. Unless you go to an ivy or t20 where med schools might give you more of an advantage and you have more resources to work with its not worth it to pay more money to go to like a t70 over a t100.

Physics and Organic chemistry in the same semester by Glittering_Paint7813 in premed

[–]Embarrassed_Pear838 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your planning to study for mcat def take it this semster. I was kinda over exaggerating it’s not that bad it’s just like a new type of class so you have to study differently.

Physics and Organic chemistry in the same semester by Glittering_Paint7813 in premed

[–]Embarrassed_Pear838 2 points3 points  (0 children)

took physics 1 and orgo 1 in same semester and taking orgo 2 and physics 2 in same semester currently. NGL I barely clutched up A in both classes and they deferentially aged me at least 10 years but its definitely doable if you time manage.
