Just applied
I have seen your numbers. Not sure why you are applying to so many schools...
I'm not taking my foot off the gas until I have an acceptance on hand.
If I remember, your stats are 3.7/3.6/25... Unless you have the personality of a rock, there is no freaking way you won't have multiple acceptances if you apply to 12-15 schools.
Is this school using virtual evals?
Has anyone received a secondary from here yet?
No I don't think they have sent any out yet. I submitted my recommendations last Thursday and called and talked with admissions. They said they were hoping to get them out this week...but obviously that doesn't look like it is happening.
I just read a pdf on their site that states they require an 8 or above for verbal. The 6's relate only to sciences (which is weird). You would think they would make 8 or above the requirement for the BS section. Hopefully they won't be that picky about verbal.
I'm curious where you saw this pdf?

It's Liberty. Mainstream science is against Christianity, remember, but you need good verbal skills to read the Bible.
I literally LOLd

I applies to this school but didn't know about the 8 in Vr rule. I have a 7. Am I going to be screened?
I didn't see anything about the 8 in VR. Here's what I found out:
Applicants must have a cumulative score of at least 22 on MCAT and have no score less than 6 to be considered for admissions unless a waiver is granted by the LUCOM Dean. Preference for admission consideration is a MCAT > 25. MCAT scores < 3 years old may be submitted for consideration. An average of the highest scores on multiple MCAT examinations is not applicable for admission consideration.
Click on academic catalog and read the academic catalog.
Edit: Here I made it easier.
Applicants must have a cumulative score of at least 22 on the MCAT and have no score less than
6 to be considered for admissions unless a waiver is granted by the LUCOM Dean. The student
should obtain a minimum of 8 on verbal reasoning to be considered for admission unless he/she
can establish English as second language or demonstrate extenuating circumstances. Preference
for admission consideration is a MCAT > 25. MCAT scores < 3 years old may be submitted for
consideration. An average of the highest scores on multiple MCAT examinations is not
applicable for admission consideration.
So it seems for those who meet every req except for the 8 in verbal, we would have to provide "extenuating circumstance" .... Sounds like its not all black and white
Yeah I am wondering how flexible they are.
How many of you are applying here?
I am.. and I'm waiting for that secondary lol
I agree. I've heard from a few other people the same thing as well.I think they are going to hold fast to their 8 in verbal requirement. I just have a feeling.
Me too! I wonder how many applications they will receive this cycle.
I know that SDN represents like 2% of the pre-med pop, but this thread is getting NO love.

I don't see how anyone could know that though. It's just speculation. I think it will be up to admissions discretion and the app as a whole. Verbal should NOT dictate someone's success as a physician lol. I have scores tons of 11-13s in practice and had a horrible test day. I guess I shouldn't be a doctor
I agree. I got 10-11's on AAMC FL Verbals and scored a 6. It is up to them though.
Wow. I feel you. It does suck but I made a test taking error. I'm sure you did too .. Lets just hope they see past a fluke and are lenient. One thing I'm confused about.. Why in the world does this school require biochem? I haven't take. Biochem . Is it the full course or the labs?
Just got the secondary via email
Congrats! It is very important to determine the extent of their stringent nature...care to share your stats?
EDIT: Great success!!!! Just got it too.
