The medical school admissions process is cruel. I recently told that to a strong applicant who was “ghosted” by five institutions this cycle. Poor or absent communication is only one of the problems. The lack of clarity about selection criteria causes confusion, and expensive supplementary applications that generate money for schools are sometimes exploitative.
