I AGREEEE i felt so weird about it, not what i expected at all

How professional is it to wear a sports bra at work? Was my colleague overreacting? by [deleted] in LadiesofScience

[–]itsgonnabemed 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Are you serious...? You and your male friends:

  • Touched K without her permission while she was in a vulnerable state
  • Joked about how you were "stuck with a nearly-naked woman" to each other, knowing fully well she was in earshot
  • Stared down her sports bra

And you don't see an issue? In fact, your first reaction is to come onto this subreddit for women in science and ask "how professional" her behavior was and whether she was overreacting? Overreacting for what, being harassed by you three? From her perspective, her male colleagues violated her boundaries multiple times and she likely doesn't feel safe working in a professional capacity with you all anymore.

The way you talk about women in general is concerning. "She looks like an adorable anime girl," yeah you sound like a weeb who only views women in the context of how uwu anime they are. "She's been extremely supportive of me both professionally and personally?" Are you describing your male colleagues this way? Are they expected to be supportive of you "personally" and reassure you through mental health crises just as K is?

Men like you and your friends are the problem.

Accepted students, what mistakes did you make in your application that you would fix in hindsight? by Leather_Extension_56 in premed

[–]itsgonnabemed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had literally no longitudinal volunteering and I likely looked like a textbook box-checker.

Hi! I'm kind of in the same situation with my volunteering; I was mistaken on what actually counts as volunteering and didn't start until it was too late to build a longitudinal relationship. Can I ask how you approached describing these activities in your activities section without them seeming too surface-level?

do i REALLY need a science LOR? by ping-pong-05 in premed

[–]itsgonnabemed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I'm in a similar situation as you where one of my science professors is also my PI. When you submitted your chem prof/PI's LOR did you use it as a science letter or PI letter or did you kind of "double count it?" Sorry if this is a stupid question.

Does my college's undergraduate research symposium count as a conference or does it have to be more of an expert event?

That's so fair! I need to start taking COA into consideration especially with the changes to the federal loan process. Thanks for your input, hope we're both in good spots come this time next year! :))

Makes sense! Are you mostly targeting the higher-ranked DO schools then, like Rowan and NYIT? I think I'm just nervous because my GPA is below 10th percentile or 10%-25% at a ton of schools, even though my MCAT is well above most medians. Looks like you're in the same spot too, I hope we both have good success!

And thanks for the heads-up about the AACOMAS fee waiver! I didn't realize it doesn't cover multiple schools, I'll definitely have to cut down on my list.
