  • Hi guys! My name is Vivien and I am a neuroscientist and aspiring medical student in Miami. In this video I get super real and honest about my experience during the American medical school application process.
    It's no secret that this process is cutthroat, and I take you along with me through the ups and downs of navigating these uncertain waters. Buckle up bb bc it's bout to get BUMPY 🥴

    I got waitlisted to the 2 universities i applied for, now i regret not applying for the other 2 schools with a med program in my province but i just wanted to stay in my city and was over confident... turns out i did better for the one i thought went bad and worse for the one i was confident about but either way my odds of getting in are only somewhat existant for the one i thought went bad, yet its for their campus in another town 2h away :') seems stupid considering my initial thought process but i just really hope i get in now 😭

      don’t worry. it might be scary being on a waitlist and it’s WAY easier said than done, but you can definitely still get off both those lists. don’t lose faith!! practice positive thoughts and believe in yourself. you deserve to get in, believe that 🫶🏼

    Not sure if you are still reading and responding to old youtube videos …But here I am its the start of the new year watching your video having all the same feelings you described
    Its like I am watching myself
    I had 2 MD school interviews in the fall and got waitlisted for both and 1 invite for DO school with the date still pending
    Checking my email a million times a day waiting super anxiously I didn’t know interviews go this far into the cycle still gives me hope because most of my schools have ghosted me and I applied super early got my secondaries within a few days of them being sent out
    Definitely reevaluating everything going to start studying for my mcat again and getting ready to reapply 😢

      waitlists are not rejections!!! i got into all those schools after this, so do not lose hope. i know it is soo much easier said on my side vs from ur side but try ur best to keep the hope and stay positive. i think its good to make a plan for the worse case scenario, but i have faith u will be ok. you will be in my thoughts!! 🤍
