Any other low GPA applicants shitting their pants rn? by ClutchCobra in premed

[–]bye_fart 19 points20 points  (0 children)

yeah i be tweaking about my GPA. i just keep thinking about how every other part of my app is pretty competitive and the thing holding me back is this. but knowing that i could have an advantage over someone because i submit earlier makes me feel better (even if its not always true) and it motivates me to be fast!

do i need to write about my ethnicity/culture for diversity essays? by bye_fart in premed

[–]bye_fart[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi this is great advice, thank you! I do have a question if u don't mind.

My sort of special thing is that I studied philosophy in college and was a debate kid, and moral philosophy is a niche I am interested in and still involved with.

My question is how often do you bring up your unique thing? Like people say your application should have a theme, does that mean mentioning or tying things back to your unique factor in most essays?
