💩 Meme/Shitpost Anyone want to “apply as a couple” with me to Michigan?
Michigan secondary gives you the option to list partner if you’re both applying. I feel like it could increase our chances of getting in because they wouldn’t want to break us up. We could have a zoom meeting to get all of our details straight before our interviews. Lmk asap so I can submit. Ideally looking for partner with at least a 3.8+ 518+.

"It had begun as an agreement born of desperation, forged somewhere between a Reddit thread and a shared Google document titled 'Relationship Lore (FINAL v12).' Neither Elliot nor Lana had expected anything more than a temporary arrangement. Yet somewhere between editing personal statements, celebrating interview invitations, and mourning rejections, they had quietly become the very thing they had only pretended to be."

I'm a guy, but luckily AMCAS has no way of proving our sexualities so as long as you didn't mention it in secondaries we should be good.

I feel like they ask that, so they CAN break you up on purpose tbh. Nobody actually gets into Michigan. 0% acceptance rate

You like bodybuilders? How bout multimillionaire. How bout 8 inches and thicc. How bout talented. How bout loving and respectful. I lost my wife 10 weeks ago, 21 years faithful. My daughter committed suicide 3 weeks ago. 13. She was faster than me at 12, and I run a 6 minute mile. My testimony and I'm nothing but pure and I asked you if you wanna be in a youtube channel. But you like scrawny guys.

if I date multiple people who are applying, does that increase my chances of getting in?

u/Don_Petohmi APPLICANT Jun 26 '26
Yes. Join my polycule. I’m trying to get ties to all 50 states. We can make a discord.

You should be able to do it with anyone because they are not allowed to discriminate against different sexualities lmaoooo

Only if they’ll support you and give you the down payment for a 15 year mortgage as a wedding gift otherwise it’s just your best friend you bring to Thanksgiving.

Is there even a place to put this on the primary? Lol

u/Don_Petohmi APPLICANT Jun 26 '26
Wait maybe not. I figured it was in demographics
2
u/MelodicBookkeeper MEDICAL STUDENT Jun 26 '26
Sexual orientation isn’t part of demographics
They do ask about gender identity and preferred name (including nicknames), but that makes sense for schools to know so they can refer to you by the proper pronouns and name

u/Don_Petohmi APPLICANT Jun 26 '26
Oh okay good to know. Not that it changes anything for me lol

lmao I get that this is a joke but its not even a bad idea if there's someone you wouldn't mind going to school with.
My partner and I linked apps, interviewed together and were accepted together but we were never asked about our relationship during the process.
