Hey everyone,
I want to hear the truth about getting into a top school. Specifically for me my dream is to go to Yale SOM. My stats are 4.0, 514 MCAT, 2 years in Microbiology lab, 2 year leader in community outreach program, good shadowing, volunteer EMT 1.5 years, etc. Basically my extracurriculars are on pair with the average competitive pre-med. One thing that stands out is I will be getting a MPH before I attend medical school.
Overall, I want to know if it would be worth at all putting in an application for Yale? I know I should do it because you never know, but realistically do you know anyone who has gotten to Yale with a below-average MCAT?
