Last summer, I stopped by the admissions office to discuss my essay / supplemental portion of the application. One of the clerks told me that students can lose points if they re-submit the same / similar essay from previous year(s), and their essay happens be reviewed and recognized by the same adcom individual. The logic is lack of growth from one year to the next / originality. The admissions committee is only 15-20 people (I believe). She also joked, "do you know how many essays we receive of people being stuck in a storm --> epiphany" If you apply again, I highly recommend stoppin

Acceptance letter release date?

I can relate to this in a big way. I check this thread neurotically, and I feel low key responsible for others because I started it lol. I heard a quote the other day that has helped. "If it is out of your hands, it deserves freedom from your mind too." I hope everyone experiences some freedom this weekend. -

I'd assume the timeframe would depend on how C19 progresses. Ironically, staying at home and doing nothing might help speed up the process. -

I am skeptical. It feels like every single person (I know) is on a WFH policy. If I was to bet, I would put my money on the covid pandemic delaying acceptance letters. There is widespread closures across the country. I hate to be negative, but people are losing their shit and acting paranoid. I don't know why this would be any different. -

I am confused by Dal's new academic score policy change. If you have a high GPA and low MCAT (or vice versa) then your academic score won't plummet due to one of your low results? Or does this mean the MCAT is less important and GPA has more of influence?
