And definitely don't take my word for it -- I would give them a call to see for sure. They are all really nice and seem to want to help as much as possible.
I was wondering if anyone knew about what medical schools SFSU postbacc students(AETs) were accepted to after completing the program? And were the accepted right after program completion?
I have an interview there this Saturday! Who else gonna be there?
See you guys Saturday...I have an interview there this Saturday! Who else gonna be there?
Congratulations!! Did you interview via Skype?I got in! CCT Cohort 8 I'm looking forward to meeting everybody. Good luck!
Yes. And it's harder than I expected it to be...Congrats to everyone who got accepted! I interviewed 4/13 and just heard back today that I was in! Is anyone else deciding between SFSU and other programs?
What are your options?
I really do not want to pay 1500 for rent a month to live alone, unless i absolutely have to...
is anyone else looking for a roommate in the program?!? I anticipate to move by May 15- june1, and stick around for at least a 1 year lease...
this living situation stuff definitely seems challenging.
FYI, I received two emails from Luna this evening re: the Formal Post Bac google group and summer course info.

Hello everyone! I have taken 3 semesters here at SFSU as an AET, will be applying to medical schools this cycle. I would be happy to answer any questions ya'll have about classes, scheduling, the advisors, SF, etc...
People have gotten accepted anywhere and everywhere.
CCTs usually have high GPAs to begin with, so with a 3.8+ at SFSU and a decent MCAT, they usually get into really good schools all over the nation (i.e. all the UCs, top 10, Ivies, you name it).
AETs usually come in with scarred GPAs and it's usually more limited. But some schools AETs have gotten into in last year's and this year's cycle include places like BU, Case Western, UCs, lots of lower tier MD schools, and many DO schools.
Would you recommend volunteering anywhere while you're taking classes?
Also to anyone for the upcoming summer semester....Why do they recommend taking only 9 units during the summer? Is it so that students can acclimate to the school? I'm asking because for summer loan, i've read i needed to take at least 12 to be able to receive 100% of the award
@Huskydock, what types of opportunities do post-bacc's do while taking classes. Is there any chance for research? I haven't done any as an undergrad and would like to get involved with that. Thanks!
Thanks husky for the really good info. Were you part of the aet? How are the classes compared to undergradscience courses?
