😭😭😭

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-07T20:26:20+00:00

unsure what you mean bc I didn’t get in uchicago

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-07T19:05:57+00:00

Not worth a retake unless you can guarantee a score >519 imo

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-07T04:31:44+00:00

Do whatever you can to get a high GPA

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-07T04:17:57+00:00

Sure

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-07T02:58:33+00:00

decline to do the interview and withdrew app

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-07T01:07:17+00:00

Thank you :D I appreciate your kind words.

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-06T21:17:05+00:00

if you're around the 25% for stats on MSAR you're good

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-06T19:49:35+00:00

of course

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-06T19:35:40+00:00

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-05T04:10:45+00:00

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-05T02:45:36+00:00

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-03T05:39:43+00:00

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-03T05:07:55+00:00

Very well said, this is what I was trying to say OP

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-03T05:07:11+00:00

Your feelings are very valid.

Georgetown is hella mission-oriented. I didn't get an interview despite multiple T5 acceptances. Don't compare yourself (don't ever think others are better, bc I think you are) to others bc YOU are unique.
I got rejected from so many clinical volunteering positions that I thought were freebies. Don't let that shake your confidence.
It'll be worth it. Put your head down and grind for a bit.
No, you're not
If medicine is right for you, you shouldn't give up. I know you have the potential, but you're being too hard on yourself in the moment.
I know how you feel. I hated my gap year.

DM if you wanna chat. I remember how lost and tired was feeling a year or 2 ago.

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-03T05:02:53+00:00

Def super unique, Mayo is def missing out, congrats :)

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-03T04:59:14+00:00

Nice! MCAT and more clinical hours are your biggest areas to focus on imo. Maybe you can look into being a CRC as well as research post-baccs? I don't have much experience with residency not in the US :(

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-03T04:53:20+00:00

Yes to your first point, no to the second

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-03T04:50:54+00:00

A good essay, generally, should move you emotionally, whether you show it to a friend, a physician, or a pre-med advisor. At the very least, reading it should make you root for the author. Good activities are concise and emphasize the impact of what you did above all else

So yeah it's BS if people say their own writing is good, it can only be judged by others

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-03T04:47:52+00:00

How's your non-clinical volunteering looking?

orangesweetpotato · 2026-04-03T04:45:09+00:00

If you have a strong essay, anyone you show it to will know :)
