sorry to burst anyone's bubble, but unless I'm reading something wrong here I don't understand how U Michigan's undergrad admissions are relevant to med school applicants. The policies are not the same for medical school although some of the same factors may be given extra weight. I know that most state medical schools give strong preference to in-state applicants; for example, UMAB med has about 80-85% of the class from Maryland, while UMCP (UM's flagship undergrad campus) takes only 65-70% of the entering freshman class from in-state. University of Massachusetts is very much the same way; the medical school in Worcester will not even consider out-of-staters, while the flagship undergrad campus in Amherst takes a substantial # of out-of-staters. I'm sure there is a very similar numerical system that each med school uses, but the chances of this system ever being revealed to us are slim-to-none.
