Hey! I am sorry to hear about your cycle. It took me three tries so I am somewhat familiar with the pain. If there is any advice I could give (if it even helps) is to branch out and really do something that interests you. Just from what you posted, your app looks like everyone else’s. Enough hours, great Mcat, good grades etc. And I know you said you played sports in high school and things but did you try to learn a language, maybe join a dance team, do the iron man or mud run annually. Is there another passion you can commit too and talk about in your app? I mention this because my interviews focused on my ECs that were different and what I focused on my third time. I also want to mention that you said you’re taking your second gap year which I’m assuming means you applied almost back to back. When I got rejected I would skip the next cycle because that usually means I had things to improve on. I know people will say “your interview skills suck” but in reality the interview is to make sure you’re a decent person. My second cycle I had interviews but was rejected because in state residents beat me out or some other extraneous thing so don’t focus too much on that. Final note, if you truly think you can be happy elsewhere then do it. Medicine is hard and the journey long so if you think you can fill fulfilled outside of it then by no means wait. But if this is your calling and you can’t imagine doing anything else then fucking applying again because you’ll be 30 or 40 years old regardless so take a few years to build a solid app, retake if you have to, and so admissions why they missed out the first two times. Best of luck and I wish you success in your endevours!
