Hey folks, I was wondering whether acceptees could post their stats just to give us an idea of what med schools expect. Thanks for the info and congratulations on your success. It would be greatly appreciated by the SDN forum. <img src="graemlins/pissy.gif" border="0" alt="[Pissy]" />

since this looks like the thread that's going to take off, I'll jump in.

Forgot, I'm not accepted anywhere yet. Hopefully yet
 
I'm not sure what this is going to tell anyone other than that people get in with just about every possible permutation and combination of numbers. I seriously doubt any pattern will show up. The rest of the app is just too important. Plus undergrad institution is pretty important to know in conjunction with the GPA. But for what they're worth, here are my stats.

Undergrad at Stanford
Cum 3.51
Sci 3.4
Non sci 3.58
12V, 8 PS, M, 10BS
Accepted at Albany
 
If possible, can you guys please post WHERE you got accepted and maybe your undergrad school...thanks

AO-3.49
9V,12P,12B,Q
Math and physics undergrad at a major Canadian university.

Please bear in mind that I've interviewed at some prestigious schools but have been rejected at a lot of lower ranked schools--consistent with the experiences of other SDNers here. Proof that this process is completely arbitrary.

SMW and pre-hawkdoc:

If you're so adamant that this thread does no one any good, then why did you post your stats?

Stats are useless without knowing volunteer work and other extras. Shoot for at least a 30 MCAT and 3.5 gpa. That's the average for accepted students.

1) i wouldn't say that i'm "adamant" that this doesn't serve a purpose
2) echoing SMW, just b/c i don't see it doesn't mean it ain't there.
3) welcome to SDN, S2BD

Does anyone think that that post by Logan looks a little fishy. I mean come on? a 1.254 Cum gpa, and MCAT scores that are not whole numbers. Although the leisure studies and lesbian film major was quite funny.
 
I have a strong suspicion it was a joke :) Trek
 
he's definitely not being completely honest here. i mean why such a low AO gpa with such an exciting major? but i don't see any problems with the mcat score (other than that writing sample..hello logan..they only go to T)!!
 
Damn caveman- we replied at EXACTLY the same time. Plus it seems you never check your personal messages ;) --Trek
 
wow, i just figured out how to check my PM's. i sent you one Trek. let me know what you think....
 
Caveman,
I sent you a pm in the beginning of January. Maybe I will hear from you now?
 
OK, Logan's post was a joke. Yes, stats mean little, but mean sooo much to people still in the process of applying (c'mon, who doesn't remember pouring over such posts, looking for that ONE acceptee with stats similar to yours?) So I think it helps to post them when asked...
