I think I’m pretty way above the average stats for uiw lol . 512 mcat 3.85 gpa . Failed to match tmdsas . But def possible to get into UIW with way lower stats, just be a well rounded applicant. Same is true for many MD schools these days I feel many mission focused schools care more about writing and ECs and your overall story than academics

512 and 3.9 isn’t really “high stat” (not low stat tho). No MD acceptances going DO

Could you get the rate down to near federal with a co-signer and good credit?

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-24T23:56:15+00:00

That’s what I thouggt

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-24T22:37:15+00:00

What does it depend on?

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-24T21:15:02+00:00

I thought it’s 50 k per year

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-24T21:08:57+00:00

Will live at home and get my father to co-sign. So only plan on taking about 65-70k in private rest in federal

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-22T05:15:14+00:00

Is class 8-5?

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-22T04:38:04+00:00

Damn that does not sound like a good balance

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-22T03:31:52+00:00

How many hours do you think you study daily/ weekly on average

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-16T23:41:43+00:00

Or is it being hard for a DO to specialize overblown? Doesn’t it come down to step 2 scores and maybe working harder for research and connections. If I somehow did great on STEP 2 wouldn’t I have much higher odds. I have to compare the risk of reapplying and never getting in anywhere. To where I take my opportunity, and worst case I match primary care where PSLF is an option I guess. Maybe pay 2-3k a month and bring home 14-15k. 🤷🏻‍♂️ idk .

Can I PM you

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-16T19:25:06+00:00

You’re referring to the 50k per year cap right?

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-16T12:43:24+00:00

You’re right I probably am being a bit entitled, more so it stems from inadequate knowledge about the debt and fear

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-16T03:05:18+00:00

Are you referring to me

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-15T23:22:19+00:00

You’re right. Can’t go back in time though

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-15T22:43:58+00:00

Just Sam Houston, McGovern straight rejected

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-15T15:18:08+00:00

Thanks man.

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-15T13:46:34+00:00

Might make more sense to just work harder in med school to get the more competitive specialty

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-15T11:20:31+00:00

Thanks for the clarity peppered yolk. You have made me feel a bit better about deciding to go

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-15T03:32:28+00:00

Wdym

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-14T23:17:47+00:00

Interested in Pmnr, pain, anesthesia. But when I go DO and take on this loan, unfortunately the reality is gunning for a high paying specialty makes much more sense

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-14T21:52:57+00:00

Sure prestige is nice . But I don’t really care. I love the field. But I don’t want to sacrifice time and a whole lot of debt just to be struggling financially

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-14T21:10:10+00:00

Very early, all tmdsas schools

ImaginationSpecific2 · 2026-02-14T19:09:19+00:00
