<Disclaimer> I know there have been numerous threads posted on this topic before, but I don't think one has been done with respect to MSTP admissions only...
How much weight does the undergraduate school you come from hold in the MSTP admissions process? I've heard varying things... ie, only your GPA/MCAT matter if they're high enough, having a prolific PI is paramount, etc.; I was wondering if anyone could offer me some clarification (and perhaps some examples) as to just how important a factor academic reputation truly is.
[If it's of any use, I'm personally coming from a state school... Univ. of Arizona]
