  • Last Active: 10/17/2009
  • Brief Profile: I am a non-trad, mother of 6, pursuing medicine after an 8 year career in IT followed by 4 years at home with kids. I had a pretty poor GPA (about 3.0) after my first degree (in History, graduated in 1997), and have a 4.0 as a returning student. I\'m getting a 2nd bachelors in chemistry with a physics minor. I\'d love everyone\'s input! I\'m planning on applying to:

    Rosalind Franklin
    University of Vermont
    Loyola
    Rush
    University of Illinois
    Commonwealth
    Stony Brook
    University of South Carolina
    Virginia Commonwealth
    EVMS
    Drexel
    NYMC
    GWU
    Temple
    Jefferson
    Georgetown
    Penn State
    SUNY Downstate
    University of Maryland
    Hopkins (I know it\'s a joke, but I\'m in Baltimore, so I can\'t not try!)

    5/9 - Now I\'m really considering applying EDP to my state school (Maryland). I know that if I don\'t get in, I\'ll likely have to wait another year, but that\'s one of the benefits of being non-trad - a year doesn\'t seem that long to me! I just think we\'ll be in a better place to move in 2 years, if necessary, so just trying locally first makes sense.

    8/4 - I ended up applying EDP to my state school. Completed secondary on 7/17, although 2 of my LORs still show not received. Some family stuff has come up that makes moving nearly impossible, so I\'m really crossing my fingers for this cycle!

    10/15 - haven\'t updated in a while. Got letter that I had not been accepted EDP (to Maryland) on 9/16, but then got interview invite for regular decision the next day! Interviewed 9/23. It went well except that I got lost on the way to my first interview and was 30 minutes late (yikes). Hoping against hope that they\'re not holding it against me. Maybe I\'ll hear soon (yikes again).
