Which school has the lowest...

[ganesha123]

admission to interview ratio.

i am willing to bet Cleveland Clinic is at the top...especially this year since they will probably accept around 45 students to fill a class of 32 with around 300 interviewees...plus the full ride increases their yield percentage..ie. less admissions..

anyone else have any other schools that should be here...

Yale interviews 25% of their applicants, a much higher % than comparable schools, but only 25% of the interviewees get in. Aside from the Cleveland Clinic #s you just cited, that's one of the lowest ratios I've seen.

Chances of admission to George Washington U or Georgetown are about 30 to 33 percent if you get an interview

Of the schools that I applied to, Mayo (22%), Penn (23%), Columbia (23%), Duke (25%), and Vandy (29%) have the <30% post-interview admissions rates.

And this goes down even more if you are a white male.

Oh, I'm imagining all right...

Where do you get these data?

USNews. I have the full online "best grad schools" thing (it was like, 20$ I think?) and it has interviewed/accepted/matriculated students data for almost all schools.

I think Cleveland Clinic might be the lowest..not sure, but they are actually only accepting 16 students in December, and 16 in February. They are only accepting 32 students because they aren't sure what the full-tuition scholarship for everyone is going to do with the withdrawal process. So 32 accepted out of 250 interviews = ~12% acceptance rate.

It's actually $14.95 for full access, but I think the access expires in March when the 2008 data comes out.

What's the average percentage though?

lol you make it seem like white males are a minority

 

[Lacheln]

The average for my schools is 42%, with Yale, UVM (OOS), Harv at the bottom with <25%.

I could ask you a favor of posting up the admissions ratios for the UC's? Thanks so much!

Things probably won't be quite that bleak. 300 is kind of high. The number interviewed will be more around 250. No one really knows how many will ultimately get accepted since CCLCM won't be overaccepting. This means that once all 32 seats are filled, a new person cannot be accepted until a previously accepted person withdraws. So I can't really tell you how accurate the 45 estimate is.

They are only accepting 32 students because they aren't sure what the full-tuition scholarship for everyone is going to do with the withdrawal process. So 32 accepted out of 250 interviews = ~12% acceptance rate.

Some people will withdraw because this school isn't a good fit for everyone. I see you just interviewed on Monday. Good luck!
