Brown Direct Med - Obviously harder to get into than Brown regular but don’t have to be an academic powerhouse or anything. They would def. be looking a lot at the non-med ECs.
WashU Direct Med - Really difficult, equivalent to a HYPS
Drexel Programs and RPI/AMC Direct Med - Easier than ivy - academic and and EC standards are lower not to say that the program is for kids who didn’t get into ivies.
Northwestern HPME - Very difficult, equivalent to a HYPS (maybe a little easier)
Boston University Direct Med - You would want similar academic standards as applying to an ivy but they wouldn’t be looking as much for leadership etc as ivies. Overall easier.
PSU/ Jefferson Direct Med - Same as above.
Wayne MedStart - Don’t Know
