Hi everyone,

I made this post in another thread, but I thought that more people could benefit from it if I made it into a new thread. It may help some of you choose what schools you should apply to. It is a fairly top-heavy list, so don't worry too much about the high numbers. The order of information listed isnt based on the importance of the info, so if you're not fond of US News rankings, don't freak out that it's the first numerical information in each column. BTW, SDN automatically eliminates multiple spaces between each number, so it may be a bit difficult to read, but it reads as follows:

(School Name) (City or State) (US News Research Rank) (US News Primary Care Rank) (Acceptance rate - In state for CA, out of state if school is not in CA) (Avg. GPA) (Avg MCAT) (2004 Tuition) (Avg Indebtedness of graduates class of 2002/2003)

BTW - all of this information (and much, much more! 😉) is available from US News through their graduate school rankings. I think it costs about $15, and you get information on nearly all MD/DO schools, as well as business, law, etc. I highly recommend it.
