Just a friendly reminder to people applying now:
There are so many wonderful applicants on this board that have not received acceptance to medical school because they did not apply to a wide range of schools. So please, even if you have a 3.9 and a 40 MCAT, PLEASE apply to lower and middle tier schools! You never know what type of luck you will have in this crapshoot, so please be careful. Don't think because of your high stats you wil get in no matter what, and just apply to a few lower tier schools. If you are an exceptional applcant, you'll still probably get into a top school, but why risk it?
So please, make sure you apply to some schools that are not in the top 50 USNews list. No matter what!....just do it for me. :wink:
Thank you for reading, and have a nice day.
p.s. Check out the <a href="http://forums.studentdoctor.net/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=011438;p=" target="_blank">easy school thread</a> so you can apply to some of those lower tier schools that you may have never heard of.
