Hey guys!

What are the requirements for the BS/MD Combined 7/8-year med programs? (ex. USC, UCLA, BU, NORTHWESTERN, BROWN, UCSD, ETC) Are such things are the SAT 2 Chem an absolute must before applying?

Also, what SAT Scores are needed? What EC's? People who have gotten in or are planning to apply, post your STATS!!! thanks!

a 4.0 with a 2250 gpa and ecellent rec's will get you into any school. Don't listen to people who tell you that you must have these to have a fighting chance at any top school or good program.


If you have focused EC's that are medically related, have a gpa above 3.75 with a tough course load, and have a SAT that is 2100 or higher you have a shot at any bs/md program.

Rh, spend some time on the multiple degree forum, you'll see that a 2250 in for the most part needed.

Yea those standards are pretty high...
And is it always SAT they require? Aren't there any BS/MD programs that accept ACT scores? (for ex, Wayne State's MedStart Program)

For those on your list, 4.0uw and close to perfect SAT pretty much is a must. Even with these stats there is no quarantee. However, there are other bs/md programs that are still competitive, but less than the ones you mentioned.

you'llsee...

omg...UCSD is ridiculous!, lol

Agree with Rh.

it all depend on which program u want to apply. although i am a a freshmen in high school, i know for sure that brown might have a higher standerd than albany union however it all comes down to your gpa, ec, and your sat score. Teacher recomendation is huge booster. Actually i get many info abt this bc my mom is a docter herself and she interacts with resident and medical student who went through that hell process lol.

What kind of EC's does UCSD want when they take in students for their 6 year medical scholars program?
I have a 4.22 GPA, I have a lot of volunteering and positions in clubs, youth groups, etc. I got a 2160 on my SAT. but i know UCSD wants a 2250? so if i get that score, what could i do to help me in my medical EC section?
