Something like that came up in one of the interviews, though it was tangential from the original question. In any case, lots of people work during school and don't take MCAT courses or volunteer overseas. I'm one of those people. I don't think there was any unfairness in that respect at all.

If that question was asked I'd have to say no handicaps should be persmissable but it should be taken into consideration during discussion of the applicant.

I dont think there would be any special privileges,

 

I have always just worked and paid my way and dont think i could ever see them allowing special allowances because of it.

my mother paid her way through school and still had a 4.0 GPA all 4 years of undergrad.

You're mother also went to university at a time (I'm assuming she's anywheres between 40 and 60 years of age) when it costed a fraction of what it costs today, and when students were paid a hell of a lot more than they are today, relatively speaking.
