Anyone have a comprehensive list of Holistic Schools?
Hey everyone, I hope you're doing well! I'm currently in the process of researching vet schools and was wondering if anyone has a comprehensive list of schools that are known for their holistic application approach. I'm particularly interested in programs that consider various aspects beyond just academic achievements. If you have any insights, personal experiences, or know of schools that prioritize holistic applications, please share them here. Your input will be incredibly valuable as I...

Update letter/letter of interest
Hi there! Obviously nearing mid-January and I have yet to hear from 23 schools (2 of which are interview hold). I have a few questions about letters of interest generally and whether it would be worth it for me to send them to the schools I haven't heard from since submitting my secondary. At this point, I'm prepping to reapply but considering sending some just in case it may help in any capacity. First general questions: - Where can I find what schools accept vs. don't accept update... Read more (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Do prerequisite classes from undergrad 10+ years ago still count?
I was in under between 2013 to 2016 and took statistics and psychology/humanities courses. Given how long ago those were, will med schools still consider them when I apply in 2025? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Army OMFS Opportunities
Hello, I’m an Army HPSP student who is interested in OMFS. That being said, I also find a lot of interest in being a brigade dentist. I’ve been told TOE dentists have more opportunities to attend schools, take part in EFMB and deploy (assuming there will still be some the next few years). So I’m wondering if there are similar assignments for oral surgeons or are there only TDA assignments? If it’s the latter, would I still be able to gain unique military experiences? Or would I be better off... Read more (Source: Student Doctor Network)

International Student Question
Hey guys, I'm an Asian international student and I applied to about 27 MD schools in June 2023, and submitted my secondaries July-August 2023. I still haven't gotten any good news other than a handful of rejections and 2-3 interview waitlists. No actual interview invite yet. I'm starting to get a little worried because I know interview invites end around Feb-March. My adviser told me that my application is pretty strong and the only thing holding me back currently is the fact that I'm an... Read more (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Transferring Schools for More Clinical Opportunities
Hi! I'm currently a first-year at my undergrad. I'm considering applying to transfer for the Fall of 2024 (my sophomore year). One of the main reasons is for more clinical opportunities. I currently go to a liberal arts institution in a rural environment and the nearest hospital doesn't do more than 8 hours of shadowing or volunteering. If I were to shadow or get any clinical experience, I would have to drive around an hour to a bigger city. EMS is not an option in the area and basically... Read more (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Too late to submit?
Hi. I submitted a bit late in July, but completed all my secondaries by the end of September. I originally submitted to 12 DO schools because my MCAT score isn't fantastic. I have gotten a few responses but am still waiting to hear back from almost all the schools. I was looking through some of the other schools stats and realized there are quite a few that I could be in consideration for, but I wasn't sure if it was too late now. I don't want to pay the fee to apply if I have no chance, but... Read more (Source: Student Doctor Network)
