Hi, I'm a Sophomore premed and just want to have a feeling of how many schools I should apply to. I read on a magazine that some people applied to over 20 schools . Considering that average cost of traveling to schools for interviews is ~$500, and asumming that a person received interview offers by 10 schools out of 20, that's $5000+20*($100)(application fee)=$7000 spent on the whole process, and after addomg books/prep course fee to that, that's almost $10,000. I think that's some serious cash.
So it would be nice if I could know
1) how many schools did you apply to or are you planning to apply to and
2) is there any way to make the trips cheaper?
3) or should I get a job and begin saving for the money?
I am thinking about applying to 10 med schools.
Thank you guys.
