Spoke to a student I met via Twitter. Premed advisors are really out here telling fantastic Black applicants not to bother applying because they have a sub-3.8 gpa. Why was I the first person to support this person’s very achievable dream?

I've been thinking a lot abt grad school applicants. I know from experience that being rejected by a grad school is disappointing and (for me, at the time) a gut punch. But having been on admissions committees, please know that sometimes "your rejection" has nothing to do w you.
