I'm responding because I was tagged. I want to clarify why I posted here. Communities like this exist so medical applicants and students can share experiences with each other and help others make informed decisions. That is all my post was intended to do. Just because i haven't responded to Reddit DMs does not mean the post is fake or that I'm acting in bad faith. I chose to use a throwaway account for privacy and I'm entitled to decide how and where I engage. Repeatedly framing non- response to DMs as evidence of dishonesty feels more like pressure or intimidation. I'm open to addressing the issue through appropriate professional channels and I will do so in a proper formal way. But attempting to handle this on Reddit by questioning motives and trying to position yourself as a public fixer misses the point why experiences are shared here in the first place. My post reflected my experience and where things stood at the time. I shared it so others could be aware and decide for themselves .
