This dude sounds really smart and genuine. I think interview skills will see him through.
Idk….I just feel like every time there is a question asking him why he wants to be a doctor, he instantly shifts to his past activities, what he did etc. The purpose, the “why” just doesn’t get through. Or maybe it’s just me, but I am not hearing it. Perhaps he just needs to reevaluate his “why” and reflect upon those past experiences.
Thank you for this!
It seems his biggest mistake was not applying to enough schools. Had he applied to 20, he would have gotten in somewhere. But let's hope he gets off the waitlist.
If he is seriously about living in Texas, please consider moving to Texas and become a resident.
My favorite channel is The PreMed Years
Dude sounds smart and genuine. Hope he gets in.
I really don’t understand what on earth medical schools are looking for if this guy didn’t get in….
That CARS score is bad. That would make people pause about his reasoning skills.
@@krishnancom 517 mcat score doesn’t prove his reasoning skills? Common. Wtf
@@isaakorede2743 517 is good, but CARS specifically measures the analysis and reasoning capacity. Wouldn't you wonder why he is bad at after all this practice?
@@krishnancom so a 132 in both science and Psy sections is not for reasoning? People get in with worse CARS score. His problem is how to take interviews like Dr Gray said.
@@isaakorede2743 CARS measures situational awareness and comprehension. The other sections measure your science knowledge. Whatever skills he is lacking for CARS could be hampering him on the interviews too.
I like this guy. I hope he gets in.
His interview responses were rough. I also feel like the Ortho bro thing was really bad
@@adamalbright2020 Hes a bit awkward, but a lot of med students are. The ortho joke is funny.
This dude got an interview at Mayo? Wow! That is NOT me lol. He’ll get in, needs to apply more broadly and potentially select his schools a little better.
I think he really needs to practice interview skills, apply broader, and really self reflect and be concise when explaining why you wanna be a doc and tell me about yourself. You should touch on things but leave room for the interviewer to jump in a converse with you! Allow them to ask you about some things when you tell them about yourself. It shouldn’t be one sided in an interview, it should be a fluid convo ideally
A very good point. He will get in once he can self reflect and critically states why he wants to go to medical school.
What a great guy - so smart and so much dedication.
Pretty sure the school list is a big part of the problem here
Exactly! I thought of the same thing too. He also needs to apply wide.
He was making cringe with his answer to"why doyou wanrt.."
As a back up, apply to MSIH (Medical School for International Health) at Ben Gurion U. in Israel, an M.D. school taught in English with clerkships in the U.S., reasonable fees and a 90% match rate.
Meh
@@edhcb9359 Don't knock till you have tried it. The U.S. system is broken, this is a lifeline!
@@murraysolomon4924 Why would you say the US system is broken? Because you weren’t successful?
@@edhcb9359 I ran an MCAT course for 10 years and achieved a perfect score on the MCAT before going to the best public medical school in America, UCSF. You only have to listen to these you tube presentations to see that hightly talented students with near perfect records are not getting admitted. Every person, no matter how good they think they are needs a back up plan in 2022 if they want to be assured of going to medical school.
@@murraysolomon4924 Most applicants would like the application process to be all about whatever their particular strength is and it sounds like the MCAT was yours. That being said, if a person scores a perfect or near perfect MCAT(let’s call it 520 and above) and they don’t get into any US MD schools then they did something really wrong in their application. And it would be way smarter to just fix that thing then it would be to run off to a foreign country for four years.
ACGME reported that 1,020 residents transferred programs during the 2015-2016 academic year. About 4% of residents don’t complete their initial residency program.. You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.
What is this comment in reference to? I must have missed it in the video
