To start (sorry if this is in the wrong forum) but I have been accepted into WVSOM, waitlisted at CCOM and denied at MSUCOM after put on the Tier 1 waitlist. I’m extremely upset because MSUCOM was my top choice and being placed on the T1 waitlist gave me so much hope (I was willing to go even if they offered me acceptance the day before—it’s my TOP choice) until they stopped movement the earlier than normal this cycle (I’m assuming they over-accepted)
That being said, I am very uneasy about giving up on MSUCOM or CCOM and going to WVSOM and it is far from my hometown/family and this is the first time I’d ever be living on my own. Also, the town that it is in is far too rural for me and I am freaking out a little at the limited housing options as I held off on finding a place to live as I waited to hear back from MSUCOM.
After an intense freak out last night, I’ve been toying with the idea of reapplying. Please let me know if this is the dumbest idea ever since I already have an acceptance. I have the idea in my head that this past cycle was more competitive than normal because of the increased applicants due to COVID that if I was waitlisted at both schools previously, I might have a chance this cycle and I’d end up being closer to come with more time before going to travel before med school (since y’know last year — COVID).
I wouldn’t be changing much with my application (no grad school or new MCAT — my sGPA is 3.4 upward trend with 505 MCAT) so not sure if reapplying like that is kind of a death sentence for my future career. Sorry this is so long and if anyone has insight I would be eternally grateful as I am a chronic over-thinker with a ton of anxiety about this.
