Thought's on EDPs?
I have a first choice. I know the school well, as I've not only been there, I've been working in a lab there (part time, as I'm still a student) for two and a half years. My stats are competitive there - average MCATwist, above average GPAwise.
Should I bother trying their EDP?
I recognize that though my stats say I'm doing fine, no med school is a sure shot. Considering the very low acceptance rates everywhere, an EDP would have to SIGNIFICANTLY increase your % chance for it to make sense to go for it, given how low STANDARD admit rates are.
So, what are EDP admit rates like for applicants who are not far from what the school typically accepts?
Thanks y'all
