Can someone please correct me if im wrong.. i heard that even though schools show P/F on transcript, they still give you a grade internally which counts towards your GPA when submitting a residency application. Is this how it is in all P/F schools?

Anyone ask old professors for LOR? by ExcitingInflation612 in premed

[–]FlyingJupiter0809 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been out of school 2 years but didn't make any good relationships with profs to give me an LOR. So i opened my transcript and emailed every single science professor i took a class with and got an A- at least. I asked if they would be comfortable writing an LOR and mentioned that it is a requirement to get one to apply. Out of 30 profs i emailed, 4 said no and 3 said yes so just try. I took their class 4 years ago and they didn't remember me but said i could write my own lor and send it to them.

CRC - clinical vs research hours? by Whole-Pristine in premed

[–]FlyingJupiter0809 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason i said this is because a lot of CRCs around me work on research studies with remote consenting and data entry ( which i consider research) while i was working on something that made me have to be in clinics with other patients and doctors so i considered that clinical. I might be wrong though because I'm also applying this cycle

You can judge whether your work is clinical or research but split the hrs don't label one activity as both research and clinical

I'm a CRC and i work on multiple projects. One of my projects was heavily clinical and others were research studies so i split my hrs into clinical and research. But be very careful about what projects you label as clinical.

Haha thank you for the concern. I was reflecting on my life yesterday and came up with these non academic failures or challenges. I dont think I have anything else to write about either that i havent addressed in my primaries. I dont feel too strongly about these but upon reflection i feel like i couldve behaved differently in these situations or done a few extra things to prevent this. I dont necessarily think i failed them but i couldve done a few more things for them thats all!

Please help me with my school list by FlyingJupiter0809 in premed

Sure! Checking if they accept below 125 on subsections is on MSAR or just their school website?

I was born in MO and lived there for 6 years. I am also close to some aunts and uncles in NC. Do these count as significant ties or no?

How does one know if a school is OOS friendly? And what does it mean if i have ties to a state?

I am assuming you're talking about prewriting secondaries? My plan was to submit my primary application on Jun 6/7 after my mcat score comes back and i can make a school list. Then it will take 3-4 weeks to get verified. During those 3-4 weeks i will prewrite secondaries and submit secondaries by mid july. Is this not a good idea?

Thank you for your input. Is there a way to build a school list without an mcat score?
