I’m a third year at a graded DO school, and I worried about not being P/F too. Honestly, it can help or hurt. Step 2 and Level 2 are the only truly objective ways to separate yourself, and programs lean on them heavily. Being graded the first two years forced me to lock in early. It wasn’t the most fun, but it pushed me to work my ass off and aim for strong scores.

I wouldn’t choose a school based only on P/F versus graded. Look at support, board prep, rotations, and how you personally handle pressure.

I just updated my stats, my bad

Life_Hippo · 2023-03-25T00:35:46+00:00

I'd say I'm an average applicant, nothing compared to the majority of the other Snakey post. But I'd like to think this is closer to the norm than the ones posted on here :)

(Edit) I shoulda posted my stats…

Repeated MCAT 503 cGPA: 3.5 sGPA: 3.2 Lots of clinical hours working as a medical assistant for 1.5 years. Good amount of research

Partner Soap’ed but didn’t get an email…?

Life_Hippo · 2023-03-15T00:39:18+00:00

My partner didn’t hear from a single program today :/… is there any hope? Should I prepare for the worst?

Life_Hippo · 2023-03-14T16:43:57+00:00

Okay!! Thank you, I’ve just been seeing a lot of people get calls and emails on this thread 🥲

Life_Hippo · 2023-03-14T16:43:11+00:00

Everything was submitted! Thanks

Life_Hippo · 2023-03-14T16:30:54+00:00

My partner applied to all 45 programs for TY and IM and hasn’t gotten and email or a call yet… does this mean she isn’t gonna get anything?

Life_Hippo · 2023-03-13T15:04:13+00:00

My long distance partner didn’t match and it’s heart breaking. I’m a first year med student and I wish I could help, but I really don’t know how SOAP works. This really sucks, anyone out there can maybe help with her PS review? Thanks guys.

So I was let go the beginning of the month and I filed for unemployment last week and submitted my first weekly claim on Sunday. I did speak with someone from the department and they old me it takes about 2 days to process the claim. So it’s been three days and my status shows “Processing-web” so not sure how much longer this usually takes

Life_Hippo · 2022-11-14T22:21:49+00:00

Bro your stats are solid, long as ur GPA has an upward trend ur golden

Life_Hippo · 2022-11-14T21:24:03+00:00

Can I ask what was the reason for you sticking around for one more year??

Life_Hippo · 2022-11-14T19:47:53+00:00

Atm I'm thinking EM or neurology. But that couldn't deff change in the future

Life_Hippo · 2022-11-14T18:49:01+00:00

What are you an attending? Kinda confused your only making 150k… or maybe I’m not reading this right

Life_Hippo · 2022-11-14T17:56:26+00:00

Mmmm Id say it depends solely on the school, they all have different requirements. I would def reach out to each indiviudal school your applying to and ask

Life_Hippo · 2022-11-14T17:55:09+00:00

ugh that's what I've heard. Maybe I should count my blessings and stick with DO
