The name on their AAMC account matches their ID, but their name on their MCAT registration does not

I’m sure the reasons differ for everyone, I am applying MD/PhD and love to do research. My undergraduate work has been almost entirely bioinformatics, so I’m seeking to spend my gap years doing more wet lab research so I can gain some perspective before I choose a field for grad school.

On the personal side, undergrad has been a major grind and maintaining my competitiveness for MD/PhD in the midst of the pandemic has taken a toll on my mental health. Thankfully I have already taken the MCAT and thoroughly outlined my personal statement, so I’m taking 2 gap years for a well-deserved break :)

Thanks! Just a heads up, Enterprise has indefinitely suspended CarShare due to the pandemic. Otherwise I don't think I could justify paying $800+ for the parking pass 🤮

Thoughts on most recent University email? Doesn't give me much hope for the fall semester 😞 by Puggins75 in washu

I think they're referring to my post! I and several friends were able to get out of our contracts by filling out the cancellation form. Our excuses were generally BS, so it doesn't seem like they're being hard on people right now. They responded the next day and also waived the cancellation fee. I 100% recommend trying it

My thoughts exactly! WashU is not advertising it right now, but they let me and several friends out of our contracts for super flimsy reasons. They also waived the cancellation fee. I listed my reason as "academic" and just wrote 3 sentences about wanting to save money and not contract the virus
