Find me such a school and confirm that there’s a US school which will actually accept them.</p>

The biggest problem is people who can’t stand the thought of having to take on another very rewarding career, either in the health professions or outside, because this is what they’ve been set on and they won’t demonstrate the flexibility to recognize when a door has been closed.</p>
<p>Look, if 40% of students are getting into medical school, it’s not as if a whole ton of spots are reserved for students who reapply. In fact, the very first thing any school will ask you for is whether you’ve applied to them in the past – that should tell you something about how favorably inclined they are to deal with your app.</p>
<p>If you don’t get in the first time, then you either need to change something dramatically – including where you’re applying, like including DO programs – for a second application, or there’s no shame in finding another career. There’s no shame in an NP or a PA unless you place it there yourself.</p>
