Look into American osteopathic schools. They like older applicants with life experiences.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6467264964343483327.post-48543482867655128162012-04-18T16:22:24.838-04:002012-04-18T16:22:24.838-04:00Hey Kasiunut!

I am rewriting my MCAT for the third bloody time and I will never write this stupid horrendous thing again. I hate it! It ruins my summer every year and I don't have many premed friends so they don't understand that its hard. And I don't have support from anybody. My parents are sick of me and of me rewriting. But I hope I can send some support to you. I hate the MCAT too lol. But let's send each other good vibes and hope for the best. You have it tougher than I do - I don't have a family to support, so kudos on you :) Good luck my dear!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6467264964343483327.post-57454309201567886742012-04-11T08:53:33.095-04:002012-04-11T08:53:33.095-04:00Thanks!

I know, I'm not giving up - one look at an email from LinkdIn showing me the "jobs you might be interested in" reminded me why I am doing this.Kasia S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16675052743877235106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6467264964343483327.post-27037391938344802692012-04-10T19:25:48.041-04:002012-04-10T19:25:48.041-04:00Delurking to comment :) i know exactly how it feel...Delurking to comment :) i know exactly how it feels to feel like you're putting your life on hold for school and how unsettling it is to have so many unknowns but all i can say is, do not, DO NOT give up. You never know what the other applicants look like and you may have a certain edge others are lacking. Granted, i didnt apply to med school but i applied to a competitive program i never thought id get into and i did. Just keep busting your butt to study for the mcats and keep trying. Good luck! You can do it if you want to and you WILL get there if you keep trying.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
