基礎被動語態

56% of medical school applicants were rejected last year.

去年有 56% 的醫學院申請者被拒。

反身代名詞

After working with thousands of pre-med students and serving on admissions committees ourselves as physicians, we know exactly what the medical school adcoms are looking for.

在與數以千計的醫學預科學生合作，並作為醫生在招生委員會任職後，我們清楚地知道醫學院招生委員會在尋找什麼。

These are the three most common mistakes applicants make that cost them an acceptance.

這是申請者最常犯的三個錯誤，它們會讓申請者失去錄取機會。

The first and most common mistake is not submitting your application soon after applications open in June.

第一個也是最常見的錯誤是沒有在 6 月份申請開始後儘快提交申請。

Deadline dates on the AMCAS website will tell you that you have until the end of the year to submit your application, but if you hope to be a competitive candidate, this is not even remotely accurate.

AMCAS 網站上的截止日期會告訴您，您必須在年底之前提交申請，但如果您希望成為一名有競爭力的候選人，這一點都不準確。

Submitting early and staying at the front of the pack for each application component is one of the most essential strategies for getting into medical school.

儘早提交申請並在每個申請環節中保持領先，是進入醫學院的最基本策略之一。

Ensure your application is among the first to be reviewed by admissions committees by submitting early and keeping up with actual deadlines, not technical ones.

儘早提交申請並遵守實際截止日期，而不是技術性截止日期，以確保您的申請能最先通過招生委員會的審核。

We outline all key application dates in our Application Timeline Guide, linked in the description, and it's updated each year for every cycle.

我們在說明中鏈接的《申請時間表指南》中概述了所有重要的申請日期，並且每年都會對每個週期進行更新。

It's a free resource that provides a month-by-month overview of what you should be working on when.

這是一個免費資源，可按月概述您應在何時開展哪些工作。

Submit your primary application as soon as possible in June, and no later than the end of the summer.

在六月份儘快提交初級申請，最遲不得晚於暑期結束。

Rolling admissions means your chances of acceptance continue to decrease the later you submit.

滾動錄取意味著您越晚提交申請，被錄取的機會就越小。

And this strategy holds true throughout the entire application process.

這一策略適用於整個申請過程。

You must be ready to submit secondary applications within two weeks of receiving them, and you need to schedule interviews before all of the slots are claimed by your fellow applicants.

您必須在收到申請後兩週內準備好提交二次申請，而且您需要在其他申請人申請完所有名額之前安排面試。

The next crucial mistake is following a checkbox mentality.

下一個關鍵錯誤是抱著複選框的心態。

Admissions committee members are looking for more than whether or not you can check off the bare minimum application requirements.

招生委員會成員看重的不僅僅是你是否能滿足最基本的申請要求。

They want to see passion, determination, and dedication.

他們希望看到激情、決心和奉獻精神。

They want to see that you pursued interests longitudinally both inside and outside of medicine.

他們希望看到你在醫學領域內外縱向追求興趣。

Simply checking off the boxes of what you think admissions committees want to see will starve your application of any personality, making you look like every other cookie cutter premed.

如果只是簡單地勾選你認為招生委員會希望看到的內容，那麼你的申請就會失去個性，讓你看起來就像其他曲奇餅乾預科生一樣。

Adcoms want to hear why you felt passionate about your activities in your application and during interviews.

招生官希望在申請表中和麵試時聽到你為什麼對自己的活動充滿熱情。

You won't have anything interesting to say if the only reason you pursued an extracurricular was because you thought you had to check it off the quote-unquote premed list.

如果你追求課外活動的唯一原因是你認為你必須在醫學預科名單上打勾，那麼你就不會有什麼有趣的話題可說。

Take the time to figure out which aspects of medicine you are truly interested in.

花點時間弄清楚你對醫學的哪些方面真正感興趣。

Yes, showing a well-rounded list of extracurricular activities is an asset, but it's far more impactful to show commitment and passion toward your interests.

是的，展示一份全面的課外活動清單是一種資產，但展示對自己興趣的承諾和熱情更有影響力。

Following your passions means you'll be able to speak enthusiastically and, most importantly, authentically about your experiences.

追隨自己的激情意味著你能夠熱情洋溢地講述自己的經歷，最重要的是，能夠真實地講述自己的經歷。

Your passions help develop the story behind why you pursued medicine, creating a compelling application.

您的激情有助於闡述您從醫的原因，從而為申請材料增色不少。

For example, maybe you immigrated to the U.S. as a child and are committed to advancing medicine for the underserved.

例如，您可能從小移民到美國，並致力於為得不到充分服務的人群提供醫療服務。

To address this need, you founded an organization at your university that helps with medical aid, humanitarian work, or water sanitation in the country you were born in.

為了滿足這一需求，您在大學成立了一個組織，幫助您出生的國家提供醫療援助、人道主義工作或水衛生設施。

If you're passionate about pre-hospital care, you could bring a student EMT program to your school to help with your campus' response to emergency calls.

如果您對院前護理充滿熱情，您可以將學生急救員計劃引入學校，幫助校園應對緊急呼叫。

Our own Med School Insider, Dr. Austin Johnson, saw this need at his own small-town college in Colorado, and organizing an EMT program there played a key role in his acceptance to Stanford Medical School.

我們的醫學院內幕人士奧斯汀-約翰遜（Austin Johnson）博士在科羅拉多州自己的小鎮大學看到了這種需求，並在那裡組織了一個急救醫療項目，這對他被斯坦福大學醫學院錄取起到了關鍵作用。

While this specific opportunity won't be available at every college, Dr. Johnson's strategy can be translated to your specific interests and circumstances.

雖然不是每所大學都有這樣的機會，但約翰遜博士的策略可以轉化為您的具體興趣和情況。

Determine where your passions lie, and then look for a need you can fill.

確定你的激情所在，然後尋找你能滿足的需求。

What are the pain points of other students?

What needs do you see in your own campus and community at large?

您在自己的校園和整個社區中看到了哪些需求？

And how can you establish or build upon something that fills those needs?

您又該如何建立或發展能滿足這些需求的東西呢？

If you love research, but you and your peers find it difficult to connect with mentors and projects, how about creating a database to reduce the friction between students and PIs?

如果您熱愛研究，但您和您的同齡人發現很難與導師和項目建立聯繫，那麼創建一個數據庫來減少學生和首席研究員之間的摩擦如何？

Moreover, having a majority of one-off or short-term activities is sure to raise eyebrows regarding your commitment.

此外，一次性或短期活動居多肯定會讓人對你的承諾瞠目結舌。

You've heard it before, but quality over quantity is of utmost importance when approaching your medical school candidacy.

您一定聽說過，在申請醫學院時，品質比數量更重要。

You're meeting your partner's parents for the first time.

Do they want to hear that you've had two or three serious relationships in the past, or dozens of flings?

他們想聽到你過去有過兩三次認真的戀愛經歷，還是幾十次豔遇？

The final critical mistake is wasting crucial time on activities and tasks that don't actually make a difference.

最後一個關鍵錯誤是，把關鍵時間浪費在那些實際上不會產生影響的活動和任務上。

The med school admissions process is taxing and time-consuming, and your time is far from unlimited.

醫學院的錄取過程既耗費精力又耗費時間，而您的時間遠非無限。

You absolutely must learn to prioritize what's most important.

你絕對必須學會優先考慮最重要的事情。

Successful applicants determine their own strengths and weaknesses, and they understand how to move the needle in as little time as possible.

成功的申請者會確定自己的優勢和劣勢，他們知道如何在儘可能短的時間內取得進展。

This is where the popular med school concept of certain topics or activities being high-yield comes into play.

這就是醫學院流行的 "某些課題或活動高產 "概念的由來。

Don't half-heartedly keep up with weekly or monthly meetings just for the sake of logging hours or appearing well-rounded.

不要僅僅為了記錄工時或顯得全面而半心半意地參加每週或每月的會議。

Instead, focus on making a significant, longitudinal impact on the organization you are leading or contributing to.

相反，要把重點放在對你所上司或貢獻的組織產生重大的、縱向的影響上。

Authentic passion and long-term dedication are what admissions committees are looking for.

真實的激情和長期的奉獻精神正是招生委員會所追求的。

For example, if you're determined to serve the underserved, become a care coordinator at a nearby free clinic that facilitates low-cost primary care medicine for those in need.

例如，如果你決心為得不到充分服務的人提供服務，就可以成為附近一家免費診所的護理協調員，為有需要的人提供低成本的初級保健醫療服務。

Prioritizing meaningful involvement over simply checking boxes not only strengthens your application, but also prevents the burnout that comes from spreading yourself too thin.

優先考慮有意義的參與，而不是簡單地打勾，這不僅能加強你的申請，還能防止因過於分散而產生的倦怠感。

Many premeds obsess over one aspect of the application cycle and neglect the rest.

許多醫學預科生只專注於申請週期的一個方面，而忽略了其他方面。

They spend many months studying to retake the MCAT to increase their score by one or two points to an already decent enough score when they could have gained significant experience that would enhance their application to a much greater degree.

他們花費數月時間複習，重新參加 MCAT 考試，只為在已經很不錯的分數基礎上再提高一兩分，而他們本可以獲得豐富的經驗，從而在更大程度上提高他們的申請成功率。

Others place too much emphasis on research and extracurriculars only for their grades and MCAT to suffer.

還有一些人過於重視研究和課外活動，結果導致成績和 MCAT 考試成績下降。

It comes down to objectively and accurately assessing the strengths and weaknesses in your application and allocating your time and energy in the most strategic way.

歸根結底，就是要客觀、準確地評估自己申請的優勢和劣勢，並以最具戰略性的方式分配自己的時間和精力。
