What kind of OOS students get admitted to a school with huge in-state bias?

Do you have to have significantly higher GPA/MCAT and much more impressive ECs than the school average?

And/or be a URM or apply to certain programs like rural health track or MPH that might have a different mission than the school itself

It depends. Is the bias because it's a state school, like MSUCOM? Our because there are tons of qualified applicants in the state, like for Western or Touro-CA?

Have higher stats (generally means MCAT) than their averages, AND have ECs that reflect their mission.
