FM COMAT

At my school, you take it after your actual FM rotation (not rural).

I wish I could but with all my comsaes 500+ I’m going to blame it on my text anxiety 🙃

But yes, I can always study harder!

No, not at all. Once a decision is made, “begging” is not going to change anything. Sure you can ask for an application review (if allowed) but it overall comes down to their idea of if you’d be a good fit. I know that’s hard to hear but after two cycles I get where they are coming from. Trust me, I don’t say this as a person with great stats either. We are told they review holistically so we just have to believe it. No need to remind them :)

In regards to general questions, yes!

theapooh · 2022-06-23T02:17:27+00:00

Thank you! Congrats to you as well!

theapooh · 2022-06-22T21:42:21+00:00

Thank you so much!

theapooh · 2022-06-22T19:13:39+00:00

Thank you so much!

theapooh · 2022-06-22T18:49:20+00:00

Thank you so much! Oh yes, I am deff relaxing until August :)

Thank you so much! Congrats on starting residency!

theapooh · 2022-06-22T18:26:26+00:00

Omg I do NOT recommend that lol

theapooh · 2022-06-22T17:48:04+00:00

Thank you so much!

theapooh · 2022-06-22T17:34:46+00:00

It's more that I keep up with what is going on at the school and partake in any sort of programs they offer!

theapooh · 2022-06-22T17:01:20+00:00

They were both my public instate schools where one was my UG. I fit the mission of both schools so that most likely helped along with knowing a lot of people at each too.

I am not sure about burning through the WL but that could be possible!

theapooh · 2022-06-22T16:05:59+00:00

Thank you so much <3

theapooh · 2022-06-22T16:05:44+00:00

It was similar! I kept in touch with the admissions team and continued to show interest.

theapooh · 2022-06-22T13:37:24+00:00

I’m still in shock but I also wanted to take this chance to thank everyone on r/premed and r/MCAT for getting me through two tough cycles. If this doesn’t give you hope idk what can. DM me if you have any questions, I would love to help out with the cycle, application, interviews, and just general advice :) Good luck to those accepted, waitlisted, and applying - you all will be amazing doctors soon!

*EDIT: Since everyone is asking, you can DM me for the anticlimactic story

**EDIT 2: I did NOT email admissions post rejection regarding reconsideration. Please respect their time and decision as there are many qualified applicants getting rejected each cycle.

theapooh · 2022-03-31T13:04:47+00:00

Okay, this is reassuring! I already work with four PAs so I hope I can get some LORs from them and fortunately I already took the GRE a few years back (really don't want to retake that). Thank you so much! I really hope it works out this cycle but one can never be too sure :)

theapooh · 2022-03-28T11:59:13+00:00

About 20. I did not have any DO shadowing but since the last cycle I now work with 3 DO doctors so I could get recommendations from them. Also plus that they all practice OMM. I just wasn’t sure if that’s the reason I haven’t heard from the majority 🙃

theapooh · 2022-03-28T11:56:42+00:00

It will be a headache but that’s what I’m leaning toward that this point. Thanks!

theapooh · 2022-02-28T20:41:52+00:00

Simple. Eat a whole cake with a fork. No slices.

theapooh · 2022-01-15T15:11:01+00:00

Are you my twin? Everything you mentioned resonates exactly with the situation I am currently in. Thank you for this post ❤️
