| Regarding the University Scholars program and medical school - it's not like guaranteed admission into WashU med school...
You need to maintain a 3.8 GPA and (I think) get a 34 on the MCAT. I'm absolutely sure about the GPA portion but not that sure about the 34--I DO know that it is a VERY high score on the MCAT that is a prerequisite before they let you into WashU med school.
And I believe it is quite competitive to be a premed at WashU, where you'll be among the majority of freshmen who are aspiring physicians. Someone told me 85% of incoming freshmen put down premed as their intended majors...that stat alone really surprised me! |
