Hey there! My name is Maggie, a big dreamer with a passion for chasing my never ending lofty goals. I first applied to medical school during the 2017 application cycle and legit had no idea what I was doing.
I figured out what I needed to do to take the MCAT, but the whole application process was still just a big jumble of confusion.
I managed to apply (albeit late) to four schools, got 1 interview at Case Western, got waitlisted and never ended up getting pulled off the waitlist.
Fast-forward three years later and I found all of Dr. Gray’s AMAZING and insanely helpful advice, got my butt into gear, took the MCAT again because my first one expired (!!), and reapplied.
The second time around I applied to 28 schools, got 15 interview invites, and TEN acceptances. I am truly humbled and grateful because it seemed like the one goal l would never reach (I had a low GPA AND an institutional action).
Anyway, now it is my mission to help you all have the same success!
I’m now a fourth year medical student and the University of Colorado and I live with my wonderful boyfriend, George, and sweet pup, Oakley. My accomplishment I’m most proud of after surviving my first years of medical school was passing my classes WHILE still finding balance, fun, and adventure throughout the year. I almost never studied on the weekends (!!) and had so many fun camping trips, snowboarding adventures, got back into CrossFit, and even started a new obsession with Colleen Hoover and read so many of her books!
