看见这个Case， 也立马想到范进中举，而这位小白女还在路上

2017 申请过医学院一回没成，现在要再申请，依她的stats，我要是家长肯定早劝另辟新路。

11. Awards:
    1. Voted medical scribe of the year
12. Misc.
    1. Re-applicant, applied in 2017 and interviewed but was wait-listed
    2. Downward trend in GPA in last semester
    3. GPA is "higher" using LSU's 32-hour policy
    4. Applied early decision but did not receive an II (they were sent out today)

My PS was vetted by friends and family both medical and non-medical and I feel comfortable with it. I used a committee letter for the LOR. Given the GPA, was I naive to expect na II? Have I hurt my chances of getting an II for RD because of the delay in being in the "RD pool"? Thanks in advance!
