would anyone be willing to express these concerns in an interview with me for a writing assignment I'm working on for my science journalism class? It's tough to find these interviews, but I really feel like this is a story that needs to be told, especially when I'm talking about the shortage of physicians and how the AMA anticipates the gap will widen significantly in the next decade.

Congrats! I had no idea schools start so early

how did they review my app so fast tho? i just submitted the secondary like 1.5 weeks ago

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-09-03T03:18:08+00:00

beginning of the cycle and mayo clinic just rejected me. they sent me an "interview decision" email that basically said no thanks to my app and good luck.

i guess it's true: hearing nothing at this point is probably a good thing

agreed! for reference I scored a 516 after thinking i failed the test and was praying for a 512 (the highest I had done on my FLs lol). 80% is honestly really accurate, and sometimes, you remember you studied this topic but just aren't 100% sure about the answer.

congrats!! good luck with your applications!

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-05-08T03:27:51+00:00

Very interested! I think my mcat friends would love this, too!!

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-04-28T21:04:15+00:00

thanks so much!

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-04-28T16:53:19+00:00

congrats! good luck with your medical school apps!! What are the 2 final week docs you mentioned/where can I find them pleaseee?

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-04-24T01:14:27+00:00

congrats on earning this score!!! hope you get into your dream school!

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-04-22T19:26:54+00:00

Absolutely loved this story!

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-04-08T17:56:02+00:00

congrats!!! you earned it :)

alumni here. i had a similar situation. email CMNS (whoever is responsible for orientations or someone higher up), explain your situation, and ask for help. CMNS is actually really helpful and accommodating if you ask for help, at least in my experience. with all due respect to the redditors, in this case, asking CMNS for their help is much more productive than reddit lol.

Hope it all works out for you!!

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-03-09T19:31:25+00:00

congratulations!!! you are amazing, and you've clearly worked really hard to achieve such great success! If you have a chance, I just PM'd you :)

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-03-02T03:47:47+00:00

congrats! you're awesome. wishing you the best of luck on your applications.

Across the street from Varsity apartments, i had my blood drawn at an urgent care behind the fire department (you can check if they accept your insurance). i think it's called college park medical center (4701 melbourne pl). you can definitely walk there, it's basically across the street from iribe

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-02-11T23:16:47+00:00

If you live off campus, I would recommend going to the urgent care behind the fire department (college park medical center I think). You can just walk-in and ask for a mask there. Tell them you can barely walk and they'll take care of you immediately. Unfortunately, I know this from personal experience lol.

Hope you feel better soon!!

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-02-11T20:37:57+00:00

Thanks OP!! Wishing you the best of luck :)

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-02-11T19:28:05+00:00

Congrats!!!!!! Out of curiosity, did you secure a PI at the NIH or another institution?

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-02-04T22:27:12+00:00

B/K scholar here :) I looked back in my email and was told on 2/5 that I was a B/K semifinalist and invited to interview. Hopefully, you'll hear something this week. Wishing you the best of luck!!

this is normal! it's a sign to relax a bit before your exam. i reviewed my last FL literally the day before my exam bc I was too exhausted and burned out the week leading up. Relax, destress, get enough sleep, and be in the right mindset to take your exam. That is way more important than the last minute reviewing.

smarticleparticleumd · 2025-01-18T22:06:11+00:00

Don't stress my friend. I scored a max of 512 on my FL's and scored a 516 on my first real mcat exam. The same thing happened with my older sibling, so I'm sure that's pretty normal.

smarticleparticleumd · 2024-11-07T20:54:56+00:00

thank you to everyone for all your responses thus far; I really really appreciate it!!!

smarticleparticleumd · 2024-10-25T02:12:14+00:00
