ACCEPTED 

GPA: 3.6

MCAT: 513

I am 28, this is my third application cycle and I'm in SHOCK. I wrote the MCAT 3 times (with two really bad scores the first times) and almost failed out of my first two years of uni. IF I CAN DO IT YOU CAN. I am honestly so grateful and amazed that I finally got a yes after years of nos. I have a BSc, and an MSc with a lot of volunteering. I was very honest about my struggles and life experiences in pursuit of medicine. 

If you received a rejection I know what it's like. I believe in you!

I'm so pleased you finally got in - we started applying at the same time on these boards and over the years I'd see your posts!

 

Congratulations!!!

Congrats! I have very similar stats (3.7, 506) and got rejected this year after being waitlisted last year. It seems my interview was above average but my supplemental didn’t cut it. Pretty bummed, but hoping they still do feedback interview so I can see where I need to improve the most.

Anyone know whats a feedback interview and how to apply for it?
