Hi everyone,
I have a quick question. Seeing that 2017 is around the corner and everything, is the only date rule that's left for our 2016-2017 cycle the Mardi Gras rule about preparing for reapp if we don't have any MD acceptances by some Tuesday in February?
I'm just curious since I've been feeling disheartened and upset as of lately. I received a DO acceptance like in September and multiple DO interviews but I have yet to receive a MD interview and I've applied to 30+ MD schools. I'm not sure if it's because I'm a CA resident and my LizzyM score (slightly Lower than 70) as an Asian is relatively subpar to the rest of the Asian applicants.
I kept hoping I'd start hearing this month as people have started declining MD acceptance offers but have had no luck in attaining a MD interview.
I just don't know what went wrong. I applied broadly with the majority of my schools in my target range and few out of reach. I had people review and edit my statements and I have a few ECs that display commitment and everything. especially when it comes to working in underserved areas. So idk what happened. I can't sleep or concentrate because I've felt so lost. And it definitely doesn't help that holidays are inching closer and closer so my family keeps asking me.
Is there any other dates I can keep an eye out for or something that will give me hope that my MD interview is coming?
Thanks for your time. Sorry for the long post :/
