The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) recommends researching schools several months before submitting your AMCAS application. In a perfect world, we like our clients to start by February or March at the latest.
You've likely thought about your top picks—but you need to apply to...
A recent Stat News op-ed, co-written by former University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine leaders, is calling on medical schools to follow Yale, Harvard, and other leading law schools in withdrawing from participation in the U.S. News rankings. The authors, Holly Humphrey, a physician and...
Hello SDN,
I'm a first time poster so I apologize if the format or anything else is wrong!
I'm an Black woman from NC with a 504 (129/125/126/124) and a 3.7cGPA and ~3.5sGPA. I have loads of campus involvement (club sports, NAACP, ambassador), over 200 shadowing hours, pretty decent LORs, and...
Hi everyone! I'm really torn between these 2 schools and thought I'd try posting on here for some more input :) Here's my train of thought so far:
ACOM pros:
- brand new facilities
- loved the area
- great weather
- already paid the admissions deposit and put down a deposit at an apartment
-...
Hi, I’ve been getting more stressed than I should be about deciding what schools to apply to. I have a list but it is too long as it will be expensive and doing so many secondaries will be killer.
3.7c/3.5s, rough freshman year but 3.9 over last year.
518 MCAT
good variety of volunteering /...
Hi all,
I'm trying to set up an excel sheet for myself so I can tell which DO programs I could realistically get into. I'm having trouble, however, as most of the schools' websites post the minimum GPA & MCAT scores needed to get in, not the average accepted scores.
Does anyone know if there...
In reviewing the med school rankings, they were pretty predictably ho-hum. After all, schools don’t change a ton in one year. Most changes were minor and amounted to a shuffling of the deck chairs. However, there were a couple of big jumps that meant new members in the Top 10 for Research and...

Hi All-
I'm in a fortunate position to be selecting between a few acceptances, and I am definitely not complaining. However, my acceptances are all to schools that seemed similar up front (with similar "gut feelings"). So I did what I do best when making tough choices-- analyzed the crap out of...
This is my first time ever posting on SDN after years of lurking so please bear with me!
I want to make my school list now that way I can prepare over this semester for the 2018-2019 app cycle. I have used the LizzyM (76.4) and WARS (88) scores but I feel like my stats put me at a higher tier of...
My mcat is a 511 (128, 130, 125, 128), cGPA is a 3.897 (not 100% sure exactly what the sGPA is right now but before the end of last semester they were both 3.88, so sGPA is probably about the same).
I have guaranteed acceptance somewhere (non-binding), so I'm only planning to apply to reach...

Hiya! I'm a longtime lurker on SDN and applied this past application cycle. I really liked having a resource/...
Is it better to pick a school that has a strong reputation/prestige over a newer-established veterinary school program? How much of a difference will it make when applying for jobs, internships, or residencies?
Hello everyone, long time reader here.

Very shorthly, I'm 26, IL resident, BS in math from UIC (cGPA 3.8, sGPA including math around 3.7) worked on two...

About me:

About me: I am both...
Help me pick out my schools / WAMC!
Below are my current stats and even further below is a list of schools I am considering applying to. Keep in mind that I have a non-violent, non-drug related misdemeanor (offense date = Jan 2010). I was a stupid kid that turned his life around. Please...
