Hi everyone,
So this post actually isn't for me but for a good friend of mine who doesn't have an sdn account. She submitted her amcas several weeks ago but is still waiting to be verified and is having a bit of trouble compiling a list of schools to apply to. Her bio:
Asian female 28 y.o. from Illinois
Mcat: 30 (8, 12, 10)
Undergrad GPA: 3.5 (from 2007)
Has worked as a RN for the past 5 years in a large academic hospital
Started her own health related business
Volunteers at local community health clinic
She graduated undergrad not sure on medicine but is 100% convinced now
She is mostly okay with any geographic location for med school. I think the most important thing for her is to apply broadly and to a healthy amount of schools that won't get 382928937 applicants to really boost her chances. I am doing my best to put together a list with her but we are by no means experts on all of the schools out there. Are there schools that look favorably on nurses (I know a lot of people say that a lot of med schools actually frown upon applicants who are nurses)? Any help is appreciated!
