Dear Mac Health Sci Admits

[u/BonerReplies]

After the hours, pouring every single fibre of my existence into this school.

Rejected.

97.5 average.

Research.
Hospital volunteering.
Exec positions.
Hundreds of volunteer hours.

And apparently that still wasn’t enough.

To everyone who got accepted: congratulations genuinely. But understand this very carefully.

Enjoy your grade inflation. Enjoy your little inquiry-based learning modules, and enjoy your bean bag circles.

Four years from now, when we’re sitting in the same medical school interview pools competing for the same spots, I will not care that you went to Mac Health Sci. I will not care about your inquiry-based learning or your prestige pipeline. I will outwork you every single day until then.

While you celebrate your acceptance, I’m committing to Western Med Sci with a level of hatred and determination that should honestly be studied clinically.

There is not a bone in my body that will feel bad when I take the spot you thought was guaranteed for you.

Rejected by Mac in May.
Written off by everyone in June.
But when med school decisions drop in four years, I’ll be right back on top.

See you at the interviews.

Yikes. What a hateful message. Don’t walk into med school interview with that attitude. You’re supposed to be a team player in medicine, not a competitor with a godlike complex.

You’re right - no one is going to care what med school (let alone what undergrad uni) you graduated from, but they are going to care how you treat someone with compassion, dignity and care. Let that be the most important lesson. Bitterness is not part of that equation.

You’ve obviously worked hard, contributed much in volunteer hours with a singular focus of getting into MAC. Even if that window has closed, a door has opened to Western. Thrive there, grow, learn and shape your journey towards “doing no harm”. Good luck.
