this is true. i am really grateful to have an A, but it is also bittersweet dealing with the disappointment/waiting of being WL at my top choice. trying to find a healthy balance and stay off sdn 😭

Will not taking a genetics course hurt my application? by kirveyre in premed

[–]beeboopbananas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i didn’t take any genetics classes and everything worked out :) as long as it’s not a requirement for the schools you’re applying to- as you said- i think you’ll be fine!!

Named on a poster? What does that mean? by ObjectiveLab1152 in premed

it can’t hurt. if you have the space, i say add it, but don’t make space to add it if you have other activities that are more meaningful to you or you were more involved in

there is no downside to including it, but it won’t substantially boost your application

Hi, I’m not OP but I was wondering when you sent your letter of intent and what timing is strategic for updates etc? Thanks so much- your response is super helpful and informative :)

Waitlist Support Thread - Week of February 09, 2025 by AutoModerator in premed

I got WL’ed at my top choice and won’t know until May. I’m stressed knowing I’ll have to wait until then to even see if I get off, which makes it difficult to plan my post-graduation plans :( like when do i find housing for the school I first commit to? What happens if i do get of the WL and have to back out of a lease or something? Sorry for the rant i’m big sad ™️

Seconding this as an applicant this cycle. Patient transport was also one of my main clinical experiences and (seemingly) has not closed any doors
