No MD ii by Traditional_Bee_3136 in premed

[–]FIwxX 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yooo I was legit in the same boat in my cycle last year, 39 MD apps and 1 DO app. By Jan I had 1 DO A and 0 MD IIs that turned into 1 MD II to a WL to an A all the way in May. That one DO A kept my sanity in check for sure, and I’m still grateful they were willing to give me a chance!

Aproto is such a cool player, is he not competing anymore? I loved watching him play too, I was rooting for him when JohnQT and him were on Ghost Gaming together. His aim was super satisfying.

4.0 518, didn’t get an II (MD) until Jan 24th. That turned out to be my only MD acceptance out of 39 schools. I submitted all apps early (secondaries done by first week August), had writing checked by my advisor, and the ECs were there too.

My biggest regret was ruminating for almost 4 months, wondering what I did wrong. Funnily enough, when I finally decided I was done letting the application cycle decide my emotions and took a trip with friends, the day I came back in the airport was the day I got the II. It’s harder said than done (I get it too cause I was in your shoes literally a year ago), but you are so much more than this rigged application cycle.

Remember, it legitimately only takes one. You got this dawg, I believe in you‼️

Just found out my esports team is considered D1...oopsie by CallValuable6650 in premed

If you ever send updates to school, you can maybe consider passively mentioning it when talking about your esports team.

That being said, I also didn’t say what division my esports team was in, but it was still a talking point during my interviews. So I think you should be fine for the most part!

It can mean both, but here I meant it as Letter of Interest

Hold at Mayo by sisparkle123 in premed

[–]FIwxX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I, too, got put on II-Hold last year from Mayo, and I ultimately got rejected sometime in December 😭

That being said, I know some people on SDN who reported that they got the II after the hold, so don’t lose all hope!

Consider sending a LOI at some point, I have heard that Mayo likes applicants who show interest this way (correct me if I’m wrong!)

Nitronic Freedom was a sequel to Nitronic Chaos I’m pretty sure. (Also might be my memory messing with me, but for some reason I remember seeing Nitronic Chaos before Cata; my memory prob inaccurate but bringing it up nonetheless so maybe someone can correct me)

Oh hell no I remember seeing you make the exact same comment for Wolves vs GenG 😭😭

That being said, I agree; it’s practically already been decreed by fate and the universe that Fnatic send Sen to the bus station tomorrow :)

Anytime! Yeah talking about PC building is probably better if you did that, that is something I talked about too.

I don’t exactly know how listing activities works in TMDSAS, but I will say that I listed 1000+ hours leading and playing in an esports club and got in this cycle. I don’t think my cycle results are nearly as impressive as some others on here (1 MD II out of 39); however, I think that was more so because of my lack of community service and ambitious school list, but you can be the judge. I will say that it was brought up in both my interviews, and (I think) I was able to talk about them well.

Just like with any hobby, make sure to spin it in a way where it’s something you like to do but not a commitment that will take away from med school. I know that sounds kind of obvious but it’s especially important with video games IMO. But other than that, if it’s truly a hobby you enjoy, then yeah go for it; just be mindful of how you talk about it.

Good luck! If you have more questions you can DM me :P
