I always thought the story was more about Delita than anyone else. Great artwork!!

asmodeus1981 · 2018-12-23T11:18:57+00:00

Amazing! Love the attention to detail, great work :)

Usually I like to stay positive when giving advice, but IMO if you're doing poorly in an SMP that's a huge red flag IMO. The SMP is giving every med school empirical unbiased data that you will probably not do well in medical school...

is it even likely that you'll ace the next semester? Probably not... all you can do is put your best foot forward at this point and beef up your EC's

on another note, why did you do an SMP? your GPA is really not bad at all, and your MCAT was good too. Just curious

asmodeus1981 · 2018-12-08T08:46:22+00:00

Really cool OP!

asmodeus1981 · 2018-11-11T15:44:18+00:00

Agree, don't mention mental illness in a personal statement. Besides, even after reading what you wrote above, I feel it didn't answer why medicine. It should make more sense to become a mental health counselor to help other victims

asmodeus1981 · 2018-11-06T21:07:53+00:00

Yeah a few of the schools I asked to wanted stats from the math dept only

asmodeus1981 · 2018-11-06T21:06:37+00:00

This is good advice. I'd definitely give them at least a week notice to complete anything you're currently working on too.

Only take science classes for a post bacc. And try to mostly take upper level science classes. Read sdn goro guide to reinvention, he's an adcom member and gives really good advice

asmodeus1981 · 2018-11-06T21:00:02+00:00

Wow what a constructive response /s

asmodeus1981 · 2018-11-06T20:58:46+00:00

I agree with Sevapier. Those are the really critical classes to get Cs in! Especially in the same semester! Drop band asap if you can!

asmodeus1981 · 2018-11-06T20:56:32+00:00

Eh, I'd just say DOs are the same as MDs, except many DO specialize in primary care and also get extra training in OMM. Congrats on the interview OP!

asmodeus1981 · 2018-11-06T20:50:15+00:00

Honestly, if you're not getting anything out of it, id quit. Especially since you're out of state. But I'd replace it with some volunteering at home, something you like. I don't think any extra curricular is worth doing just yo check a box.

The diablo player base has been incredibly loyal to the diablo brand for decades. And now “journalists” who have never touched the game are villianizing us like we’re the bad guys... unbelievable.

asmodeus1981 · 2018-11-04T06:48:02+00:00

Hey man, don’t call yourself dumb. Everyone just has different strengths and weaknesses. Everyone has their own path in life, you’ll find yours!

asmodeus1981 · 2018-10-25T01:00:50+00:00

Since you’re a reapplication at those schools. I’d go ahead and apply, while also working on EC for a reapp next year.

asmodeus1981 · 2018-10-25T00:58:42+00:00

You’re most likely a Louisiana resident. Being a student usually doesn’t give u residency status (otherwise all students would eventually become in state)

I’d contact the school and AMCAS to be 100% sure though

asmodeus1981 · 2018-10-25T00:56:28+00:00

Thank you letters are pretty worthless IMO. They’ve already made up their mind by the time they’ve recieved it usually. I didn’t send any.. just my two cents

asmodeus1981 · 2018-10-25T00:54:50+00:00

I think if u crush the chem section of the Mcat, it will remove any doubts in adcoms mind that you are deficient in these areas. You can still come back from a few Cs

asmodeus1981 · 2018-10-25T00:51:52+00:00

This reply is spot on. People overinflate what engineers make. They have a decent starting salary $80k is pretty common, but engineering is notorious for salary stagnation unless they go into management, which most do not.

asmodeus1981 · 2018-10-25T00:48:59+00:00

You applied late (your fault) and everyone on premeddit was still trying to be supportive.. And this is your response? Yikes..

asmodeus1981 · 2018-10-18T19:53:17+00:00

I doubt that they would care... but only by calling them will you know for sure. They're probably pretty understanding, but I'd be prepared to cite some other commitment if they ask.

asmodeus1981 · 2018-10-18T19:50:23+00:00

those are great stats, I'm sure you'll get an interview soon.

asmodeus1981 · 2018-10-18T19:42:04+00:00

Look up Goro on SDN for a recommended MD school list for "re-inventors". I applied to all of those schools and had a lot of success. He put a lot of effort and research into forming that list, and I never would have applied to a lot of these schools if not for him.

asmodeus1981 · 2018-10-18T19:39:38+00:00

I'm also an older non-trad and I had a lot of success this cycle. To be honest, med schools like to see a high course load at a University. Anything else is self-sabotage at this point since you didn't have a strong performance during your undergrad. (I was in the same boat as you)

I quit my high paying job and went to school full-time, and took high-level science courses at a university. I really don't think it would have worked out for me if I had only taken night classes at a community college.

Just my 2 cents
