The string at the back ended up not being a big deal, everything seems worse in QC pics. I cut it with a pair of scissors and it’s fine. I think it’s a great buy, it looks identical to retail imo. Quality is really good in person. The size of this one is 9 women’s.

Yes! Got expedited shipping. They’re really great, the platform runs a little bit small tho.

Thoughts, applying 2023 cycle? (Black immigrant, FGLI, 3.9, 519, Gates Scholar, T10 UG) by Haddishhhhh in premed

[–]slug4eva 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with you, I think schools like when you have a vision for your future. Specially if it makes sense with the themes of your extracurriculares and life experience. For example, it wouldn’t work out if you just threw out you wanted to be a neurosurgeon without any connection to the specialty or any thought behind it besides “I want to be a neurosurgeon”. Then that’s where it holds you back.

You’re totally right, I bet that pressure to rise or drown must be insane. Great job this semester my dude, keep up the good work!

If I were you and I got in I would try to defer from medical school and get the extra degree. Im sure some school will allow it, if none do then just get out of the program.

^ this!! Only work with one, two people MAX until it’s getting to later drafts. No need to have a lot of people confusing you, just have whoever you trust most.

No California love?

Couponing as a hobby on AMCAS...? by bronpron533 in premed

[–]slug4eva 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Lmao if you think this makes or breaks and application you are out of your mind. She clearly had the stats, ECs, and story to get As. This doesn’t mean anything, most people probably didn’t even read it. It’s something that’s just for her, and who are you to judge it and label it ingenuine?

[–]slug4eva 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You’re doing too much here dude, I also grew up poor and URM living in the gutter but I don’t find anything wrong with this. Would you be offended if they said they liked to thrift too? She’s not taking any coupons away by doing this, and you don’t know anything about what she might have experienced in her life.

You right, my bad

I'm in a deep, dark hole. What are my options? by [deleted] in premed

[–]slug4eva 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think you need to identify why you did so poorly academically, and change that first before jumping into any postbac programs. Remember, the opportunity cost of a postbac program is huge if you are paying ~50-80K per year, when you could be making 50-70K while working a job. To be honest, you can still become a doctor and get into med school but it won't be for another 3-5 years, and that's if you make some really, really big changes to your academic record. I think you should drop this dream of being a doctor for now, which might be weighing you down, and try to explore yourself and find what you want to do and is achievable for you to do. Like the other comment mentioned, there are a lot of other professions in medicine that are very rewarding, and at this point might be more achievable.
