this is my second year applying because last year I applied to late (just before the deadline) and didn't get in. Yeah my gpa is bad (2.9) but I got 360 TS and TA, the first time I took it and I still can't even get a damn interview. My application isn't impressive mainly because I work 5 days a week while still being a full time student and have been doing so since I was a freshmen so I don't have time to volunteer. I commute to school every day which is a 2 hour trip each way so yes I do miss class. My scores on the OAT are even more impressive considering I didn't spend a single dime on the study materials because all I used for my study was the Kaplan Mcat from the library. I really don't understand why gpa is such a huge deal because aren't we told growing up its okay to make mistakes as long you learn from them, so I made mistakes in school but I learned from them and did good on the OAT. Or maybe I should just change my name to Richie Whittey maybe that might help me get in. No wonder so many people drop out of college.
