Hey y'all,
I have two mundane questions. First, I don't have a 3.8-4.0 GPA but regardless of this, I still am ranked #16 or so out of a class of 510 students (3%). Do admissions for med give any consideration to class rank coz someone could have a GPA of 3.6 at College A and be ranked #5 and another applicant could have the same GPA at College B and be ranked #110. Shouldn't this take precedents over GPA?
The other question is whether Phi Beta Kappa is considered of any value to an applicant applying to medical school. Do ADCOMs really care about these academic honors?
Thanks folks and EVERYONE KICK @$$ this Saturday.
