@fuqekgs MCAT scores are only one part of a med school application anyways; interviews, essays, gpa, volunteering, research, clinical exp, rec letters, extracurriculars, etc
@jfurf@JustAFamilyMan_ No doubt. I'm glad that it worked out for you! But from what I've gathered(and I could be totally wrong here) your in the minority.
@Barrington4OH15@JustAFamilyMan_ People, especially professionals, are willing to pay more to live near amenities, other professionals, and general civilization. Wtf does fresh air even mean, we don't produce anything to generate smog in our cities anymore lol. "Cultural stuff online" lmao what even is that??
@slomgun If your nephews still interested in medicine I'd be happy to mentor him 1-on-1 for 200$. And depending on how far along the rest of his app is we could probably get him an acceptance this cycle, if not this then the next cycle.
@slomgun Cause he applied to t30 schools, didn't have volunteer hours, clinical experiences, a good gpa, good rec letters, a cohesive narrative, good essays, doesn't interview well, a multitude of reasons really. At some point we just need to take accountability and stop blaming others.
@NY_LBSS@Deshpacito661 It's primary care, why go to med school and rack up hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt and practice one of the lowest paying specialties when you can go into derm, surgery, or other high paying specialties. Pplfrom the sub continent rarely ever match into comp specialties
@BoydsArchitect@Deshpacito661@MT_6226 Doctors are the only ones in school for 10+ years piling up massive amounts of debt, they are a different species. There's usually like a single lawyer + politician in these small towns. What professor is residing in a rural town far from a university? Why are you grouping cops,
