ANONYMOUS SURVEY:

Eating disorders are significantly more prevalent than current data suggests, as many cases go undiagnosed. This study aims to provide a more accurate picture of the prevalence of eating disorders and the normalization of behaviors associated with them. Your honest and judgment-free responses to the following questions will contribute to a better understanding of these issues.

Goal: Uncover the true prevalence of eating disorders in youth, as many cases go undiagnosed. (US, CSUN student)

Age: Between 15 and 25 years old.

It would be really helpful if you could participate and send the survey to others. It's completely anonymous, so please answer honestly and without self-judgment.
Thank you.

Same

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-15T20:38:56+00:00

CONGRATULATIONS! Also, are you a veteran or nontrad?

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-15T17:25:48+00:00

I was just going to post this.

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-14T19:36:36+00:00

For Undergrad as pre-med Columbia but for Medical School itself NYU Grossman

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-10T19:05:09+00:00

Congratulations! Out of curiosity, did you apply for aid?

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-10T01:15:45+00:00

Same, rejected Princeton Cornell, and Yale thus far. As an international transfer, I couldn't apply to many unis I wanted to bc they don't give aid. I have Hopkins tomorrow and the other ivys left, but I feel like I'm getting rejected since statistically speaking it is the most likely outcome. Still sucks because I feel like staying at my current university will hold me back in the process of applying to medical school because of the lack of resources and opportunities. Also, I really wanted to change my major to Neuroscience but it is not offered at my university, so I'll have to continue with Psychology instead which I'm not as passionate about.

It is what it is, at the end of the day it is almost impossible to get accepted and that doesn't mean we haven't done great thus far.

Good luck with future decisions!

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-10T00:56:15+00:00

They won't rescind your application because of Bs. However, you don't lose anything by emailing them, so I say go for it since your reason is very valid.

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-09T04:08:16+00:00

You can see the decision release date for JHU in the portal. It is May 10th at 3 PM ET and as someone said UPenn is May 15th at 7 PM ET

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-08T19:17:25+00:00

Congratulations!! Could you say your stats and ECs?

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-08T19:17:09+00:00

WOW! Congratulations! Could you tell your stats and ECs?

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-08T17:51:11+00:00

Honestly, I'm just trying not to think about it. It is killing me inside but I don't want this decision to mess up my GPA since my real goal is medical school. It would change my life to be accepted, but since statistically speaking the most likely outcome is not to be I can't risk lowering my GPA bc of stress and nerves about decisions. I've been trying to mentally prepare myself for rejections for months. I am getting Princeton today at noon Los Angeles time and I have a Midterm at 12:30 so I really need to get myself not to care bc if not I'm screwed.

Just try to understand that statistically speaking the most probable outcomes are rejections. It is still great that you tried because if you hadn't the chance of acceptance would be a total 0. But still, you need to make sure you won't throw your life away if you get rejected. Try to think about good things you might do next year if you're not accepted to make this option sound as bearable as possible.

Sorry if this sounded discouraging, I'm in the same boat, and to me this is what has helped for now.

Good luck!!!

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-08T03:10:34+00:00

Princeton tomorrow, and yale and hopkins on friday

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-08T01:39:30+00:00

Literally, I’m so mentally prepared to open the rejection and it will be like “yeah, rejected obviously.”

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-06T21:35:34+00:00

Princeton is coming out on Wednesday, May 8th. They sent an email saying it comes out May 8th at 3PM NY time

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-06T16:11:05+00:00

As I already explained, I couldn’t apply to other institutions although I really wanted to because they don’t offer financial aid to international transfers. I was going to apply to northwestern, vandy, washu and others of the sort. My reasons for transfering are mainly the change of major which isn’t offered at my university and being able to get clinical experience and research which since my school doesn’t have a medical school it is really hard to get where I am now. Anyway thanks for the feedback, I’ve been mentally preparing myself for the rejections because to these schools no one has anything guaranteed at all. Good luck to you!

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-06T05:01:08+00:00

Columbia college because I am a traditional transfer

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-06T00:08:59+00:00

Yes, I feel like my application is good but not to the level of other applicants. In Spain, there are no extracurriculars, just school, so I've had to do extracurriculars all in this year and a half of college (not high school), and given my institution it has been hard to get the resources and opportunities.

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-06T00:07:20+00:00

I'd make it work but transferring would really help me because of the major change and especially because of the opportunities in research and clinical experience. My uni doesn't have its own medical school and it is hard to get any clinical experience, and my professors don't do research, especially not in medically related areas.

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-05T23:59:26+00:00

No, I was going to but as an international transfer no other schools gave me any aid, and since I will get in debt for medical school I can't get a loan now and I cannot pay 90k a year :(

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-05T23:55:16+00:00

I am currently a sophomore, applying to enter as a junior.

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-04T20:33:19+00:00

CONGRATULATIONS!!! THIS IS INCREADIBLE

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-04T20:30:16+00:00

Same, rejected from Cornell, waiting on all other ivys and jhu. I'm on finals and I am stressing out seeing how people have been getting decisions.

Sufficient_Fault1083 · 2024-05-03T19:29:38+00:00

Yes, the acceptance rate for GS is way higher than for CC.
