Hi! I have a question for everyone. I feel like I see a lot of people on these threads (and in life) enroll in an SMP, even when they have decent stats (for example, 3.5, 30). I guess I am just wondering what the value in that is because these numbers are average - they won't get you in, but they won't keep you out. I always thought an SMP is to prove you can do the work, but since people with lower numbers and amazing ecs, etc, get in, it seems like the problem isn't that med schools think people with these numbers can't do the work, right? Does this make sense? I am just curious - I am thinking about doing one if I don't get in this round (but my science gpa is below average).
