Mentally preparing - does anyone know anything more than what's on the website for post-match process? Sounds like it's just cold calling the programs with availability. BUT can people who withdraw still post-match?

I haven't heard from them yet either. Hopefully this year won't be a repeat for you!

Personally, I only included the second time I took it. I had to re-take ochem and I didn't want the poor grade to impact my application more than it already did. If they want to know more about my courses, they have the transcripts...

This is my second time around, and I think I may give myself one more try then potentially consider changing my ideas. The financial burden is definitely overwhelming so I don't see myself going more than three times.

I feel you, as a second time around, it's hard to not be discouraged. I'm wondering what about this time has made this your last attempt? Good Luck!!

I'm applying with a less than ideal undergrad GPA, but I've had a lot of cool experiences since graduating and some post-bacc grad level work that I'm hoping will help with that!!

Hi!! I actually am a GCA at GeneDx right now! Would be happy to talk to you about the position. What places are you finding in Illinois & Wisco with GCA positions? I'm looking to relocate closer to home.

Hey Laura! The genomic advocacy program is at Indiana State! I actually really enjoyed all the classes and would definitely recommend it! I think it has made a HUGE difference in my resume in regards to my GPA and all that, and it just shows that I'm trying to improve my grades with graduate level classes, and doing well, rather than just BS easy A classes. Happy to tell you more! Can you DM on this? Let me know if you have questions!!

I have a few apps that give you a space for ~500 words to explain anything you want. I take that to explain what I can. I had a couple of particularly rough semesters for personal reasons and I tried to touch very briefly on that and turn that into a "what I learned from this" kind of story.

Hi everyone! Just joining here! I can't believe the first round of due dates is already almost here! Since I missed the introducing ourselves part, I'll keep it short. I did my undergrad in genetics & psychology at UW-Madison (2.8 because Ochem, ya know) and I'm currently finishing up a graduate certificate in genomic advocacy (3.5). My advocacy experiences are: a crisis hotline, working with children on the Autism Spectrum, volunteering at the local children's hospital, and using dance/movement therapy to work with adults with different neuro/developmental disorders. I've taken the GRE a couple of times and have gotten my scores to not outstanding, but acceptable. Looking forward to collaborating with everyone! May the odds be ever in our favor.
