Hi all ,
I am looking for some advice on school and a reality check for my chances for this year’s medical school application cycle.
I am an international student who came to the US as a middle schooler and completed my high school and undergrad in the US. I'm currently caught up in the green card backlog and am pursuing my education with an F1 visa.
I am stressed for my chances as a International Student.
Thanks!
