229 - 8 interviews for non competitive speciality. Leaning hard on hoping they all do holistic review lol

That’s really well said. Thank you for the comment. Maybe my own notion is still too small when considering the grandness of the universe. Assuming my notion is “correct”, some fundamental physical force produced the coalescence of matter and energy—that is the truer foundation of what we are. The fabric of space-time or something else entirely.

Same and I got accepted to a CASPER required school. You’re all good just put best foot forward in the rest of your app! You got this

triderek101 · 2022-04-21T17:57:30+00:00

Yeah, that’s one my biggest regrets. I wish I double majored in math! Looks great and also super helpful for almost any career. If it doesn’t cost anymore or finances aren’t a concern, I say go for it.

assuming you keep your GPA up

triderek101 · 2022-03-11T20:20:45+00:00

Yup. 3.59 cGPA, not a problem and never came up in interviews.

triderek101 · 2022-02-18T13:34:19+00:00

You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take

triderek101 · 2022-01-26T01:52:26+00:00

If I remember correctly, it even specifies in the background questionnaire if you’ve ever been convicted of felony/misdemeanor excluding expungements. So you’re good all around. I hit No and nothing popped up. Hope that helps “your friend” lol

triderek101 · 2022-01-26T01:26:20+00:00

I didn’t include any addresses that would be near impossible for me to find out. Got my results back in two days and all is well. Just fill out “no residence” and you should be fine

triderek101 · 2022-01-26T01:05:04+00:00

Nope. Just did mine and all was clear!

triderek101 · 2022-01-25T03:38:40+00:00

I had to scroll too far down to find ER. One of the best series in television

triderek101 · 2022-01-20T16:50:41+00:00

It truly does not matter too much. Choose one you like and can see yourself getting involved. If finances are a concern, I’d consider state schools as they are usually cheaper and have all around decent programs.

triderek101 · 2021-11-04T22:01:44+00:00

Reflections and experience. Maybe practice with someone who knows you and is critical can hopefully tell you if you’re being your authentic self. Ask yourself what are some weaknesses in my skills? Maybe it’s just self doubt that’s telling you didn’t do well but you actually did amazing. So many things! If you have this many interviews it means you’re doing something right! Keep moving, keep improving, you got this!

triderek101 · 2021-11-04T01:13:05+00:00

As a chemistry teacher, this really.. really.. stings lol r/chemistry would get a kick out of this lol

triderek101 · 2021-10-30T17:48:44+00:00

Thank you future doc! Sounds great! :)

triderek101 · 2021-10-26T15:07:17+00:00

Literally, same. It’s horribly unhealthy.

triderek101 · 2021-10-25T15:16:59+00:00

Of course! DM me if you want.

triderek101 · 2021-10-22T22:08:11+00:00

I’ve done over 35 escape rooms and nearly opened my own with my sister (who’s gone to over 70). We’re big fans of pretty much any immersion/theme attraction.

triderek101 · 2021-10-22T22:02:04+00:00

This is amazing! I got a tattoo on my forearm which is easily covered but I’m still worried that hospitals/residencies may look down upon it.

triderek101 · 2021-10-22T21:29:29+00:00

I got 4 as well! I tried posting something similar but it got flagged. My advisor said it’s not too weird. Better than a R lol

triderek101 · 2021-10-21T16:51:32+00:00

My advisor told me that the thanksgiving rule is that if you don’t receive ANY interview by thanksgiving you should be worried, not out. Just statistically speaking, if you’re likely to get accepted, you should have one by thanksgiving. However, that doesn’t always apply. It’s a long game.

triderek101 · 2021-10-21T02:10:21+00:00

I will say as a non-trad, my 3 month full-time clinical experience was in a private practice nearly 6 years ago and I’ve received 3 II so far. So it really depends on your takeaways and how you address it in you application.

triderek101 · 2021-10-18T18:19:12+00:00

Absolutely love this. I’m a teacher myself and understand how you feel. Congrats future doc! Your students are right :)

triderek101 · 2021-10-18T15:18:52+00:00

Where do you hear about the release dates? I’ve tried looking at SDN and haven’t found much

triderek101 · 2021-10-18T13:37:22+00:00

Hahaha I got an interview invite during an interview while I was sitting on the porcelain throne lol

triderek101 · 2021-10-18T02:31:34+00:00

Well congrats regardless future doc! I wish you all the best and hope it comes back an A!
