Replied by on topic I have an informal survey
I have an informal survey to conduct. I was rejected from Arkansas last night, and kentucky.....both of the rejection emails made comments about despite haveing a very competitive/strong application they were not able to grant me an interview....

so my question is do places have different rejection emails they send people.....it wouldn't seem like everyone's rejection email would say "Congradulations on being such a strong candidate" ----so do places have diffecent levels of rejection emails....or do they say that to everyone to reduce the suicide/alcoholism rate amoung med students applying into ortho

I am taking step 2 tomorrow....so hope nothing comes my way.....might have to pay some homeless guy to check my email every 2 minutes...

PS...if i offened anyone with earlier posts I am sorry......I am talking to the guy above me and #9

perpetualp,
I am totaly with you wondering the same thing. My rejection from bu said my application was "strong", my rejection from harvard said "many outstanding applications, like yours..."
I wonder if I would have gotten the same rejection with a 200 step 1 and bottom quintile of my class.
I am actually thinking of calling one of the programs and asking them just for curiosity, can't hurt, they already rejected me.
But would it be encouraging to know that you were barely rejected or maybe more painful?

For those of you with tons of time on your hands that saw this post elsewhere on this site earlier, I apologize for the redundancy. I'm kinda slow, still figuring this website out.
