yo dude... Thank you so much for this information. There isn't too much information out there for MD/PhD applicants so this was greatly appreciated. Also, I was wondering if you happened to apply to MD programs as well. If so, considering that you mentioned physician scientist, did that have any impact?

Did you read Dr Gray's "Personal Statement" book? ( he is a youtuber -future collab about MD PHD programs?) And did you read the "Seven Basic Plots" by Booker ( or other similar plot book) before writing your essay? fantastic essay and experiences. Your 9 offers were well deserved. :-) i do hope you create med tools that will help people in need all over the world. it is a noble goal.

I'm not familiar with those specific titles, frankly I'm not very trustful of "how to write a personal statement" books in general. I've tried reading some of them from other authors in the past and whether it be books or sample essays, I didn't really find them that helpful. There might be good ones out there, I just may not know about them!

Great essay! Do you think your company will expand to be more than ultra sound machines and training?

Hopefully! Personally I’m interested on working on low-cost technologies in general, so we’ll see what happens!

Did u have a really high GPA? Is it possible to get in with a GPA on the lower end (not below a 3.0) a high MCAT score and a good essay?
@dotMDlive2 жыл бұрын
It's definitely possible to get into med school with a lower GPA and/or MCAT! I personally think the most important aspects of your application are your essays and really your personal story on why you want to go into medicine

Wow, I was expecting to experience the tiresome life of an adcom reading endless personal statements, but they was extremely well written and engaging. No wonder you got in to pretty much everywhere

Focusing on only a few things was a surprising choice but effective
