I'd be more inclined to agree, if I hadn't seen so many exceptions to all these rules. I'm not in medical school yet and I fall at least two of these categories, and still have no doubt that I'll get into medical school. I usually don't comment on these things, but seriously... it gets really old seeing articles that do nothing more than tell us about if we aren't x,y,z then you won't get into medical school. Its already stressful enough, goodness.
