Yeah they’re nowhere near as strict as South Alabama is about residencies/ties. Most of their OOS acceptances are from neighboring states as well, I think you’re in a decent spot

I have to retake the mcat 9/12/26 because I got a mid ass score (<502). According to the admissions department I should hold off on submitting my secondary till my scores release. I hope all the IS spots don’t fill up by score release.

I've been prepping this school's interview too. I've heard the interviewers are friendly but idk. Someone on SDN said the interview format is different this year but it appears to be mostly the same from what I can see on the interview portal page

sorry this might be a stupid question but what is "overhaul" Also, anyone know how the MMI leans, like is it more ethical or more about you
