I had pretty good stats, but there were a couple things wrong with my app. The major things were bad essays (esp. personal statement) and probably not enough clinical hours.
How would medical schools look at this? Esp. ones I've already applied to. My personal statement was pretty immature. Nothing outright offensive IMO (like racism or sexism or whatever), but I just tried to make a couple of jokes that probably were just kind of immature. I also probably didn't really convey a passion for medicine.
If I rewrote a better personal statement, do you think I would still have a chance at some of the schools I applied to already? Or would I be throwing my money away?
