I'm not sure specifically what 'erik axl sund fantastic fiction' is. It could be a very niche or self - published work. Maybe it's a story created by someone named Erik Axl Sund that falls into the genre of fantastic fiction.
One person I know who got into Cornell Med School had an outstanding academic record. They had a high GPA and great MCAT scores. But it wasn't just academics. They were also actively involved in volunteer work at local hospitals, which showed their passion for medicine.
Some well - known works in the fantastic fiction genre that might be similar are J.R.R. Tolkien's 'The Lord of the Rings'. It has a richly imagined world with various magical creatures and a great adventure. Another could be C.S. Lewis's 'The Chronicles of Narnia' which also features a magical land and interesting characters.
Well, it depends. There are good Caribbean med schools too. However, in general, horror stories do exist. For instance, there have been cases where students found that the accreditation process of their school was not as transparent as they thought. This led to problems when they tried to transfer credits or get recognized in other regions for further studies or to practice medicine. It's a complex situation as not all schools are bad, but the ones with issues tend to create these horror - story - like situations.
Another horror story might be related to unqualified instructors. There could be cases where the teaching staff doesn't have enough practical medical experience or are not well - versed in the latest medical knowledge. They may teach incorrect or outdated medical procedures, which can mislead students and put patients at risk in the future when these students start practicing medicine.
A common horror story is the financial aspect during the admission process. There was a student who thought they had enough financial aid lined up for med school. But at the last minute, the funding source fell through. They then had to scramble to find other options while still waiting for admission decisions. In terms of the application process itself, I've heard of a situation where a student's application was rejected because they used the wrong font. It seems so trivial, but it made their application look unprofessional to the admissions committee. There are also stories of students being rejected because they didn't answer one optional question in the application, which the committee took as a lack of attention to detail.
There's a story of a student who grew up in a war - torn country. They had to flee to a new country and learn a new language while trying to pursue their dream of becoming a doctor. They faced discrimination and financial difficulties. But they were accepted into a med school. In med school, they used their unique background to bring a different perspective to medical discussions. Their journey from a refugee to a doctor is truly inspiring.
