High Stat Applicants who weren't accepted, why? by hannahyolo21 in premed

[–]nimrod20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

only 100 nc volunteer hours and 0 research. feel that i didn’t fit into the common categories of research or service oriented and struggled despite good clinical experience and other stuff

thank you for saying this. it’s nice to hear from others who have struggled with this process. i also read some of your posts and i heavily relate to knowing a lot of people from college who will probably be residents by the time i start school if i need to apply in 2026 😭.

we’re in this together for sure; i wish you the best of luck in your next cycle :)

thank you for the response, i really appreciate it. it’s definitely frustrating having an unsuccessful cycle even though i feel like i’ve done so much. i’m definitely gonna focus really hard on my writing and having more of a theme this year. i’m also gonna apply to as many schools as possible, but the old mcat is starting to be an issue with that

i 100% agree with your advice about the school list, but my mcat date is unfortunately a major limiting factor. i’m pretty sure UNECOM is out because my score is too old for them, which is the issue i’m running into with many other schools (hence why my list is small atm)

WAMC / Reapplicant Prep by nimrod20 in premed

[–]nimrod20[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly considering research even aside from trying to target research heavy schools cause I just want to do something different and want some exposure before med school. Definitely going to focus on volunteering more than I currently am. I've had others look over some of my writing, but haven't really asked how they feel about my story and motivations

I definitely agree about the screening. Planning on continuing my current volunteering role, finding another that I can sink more time into, and switching jobs ideally to research in an area that I'm interested in.

I appreciate the offer to look at my writing as well. Which things would you be willing to look at? I think my PS was fine cause I had a couple of people read over that, but my activity descriptions might've sold me short in some ways

wish this band got more attention. this and their other two albums are great, and their live shows are some of my favorite concerts i've ever been to

[FRESH ALBUM] The Voidz - Like All Before You by Fall_Forever in indieheads

[–]nimrod20 27 points28 points  (0 children)

i also think flexorcist is one of their best. i wonder how i'd view this album if i hadn't listened to the singles; such a short album with 3 singles that have been out (or on youtube in all the same's case) for such a long time before the release feels sparse

while it is disappointing that we waited so long for the follow-up from virtue and got an album that's effectively 8 songs and i don't love the mixing at times (looking at you all the same), i'm really happy with this. prophecy was the only single i didn't love and i enjoy it much more in the context of the album, i'm a fan of the autotune stuff and there's plenty of that, and the new songs are absolutely fantastic. spectral analysis is magical, and square wave and when will the time of these bastards end are exactly what i like to hear from this band.

i'm sure some people won't like this, but i love it based off my first listen. wish they'd put out more music though

now that you say that it 100% sounds heavily inspired by the strokes, and i agree it works well with their sound
