<p>thanks for the advice, and sorry but what do u mean apply with confidence? and anything else and which ones do i have the best shot at yet, thanks for your help</p>
<p>yes, dont listen to me and try to apply to rice with a 2000 and lemme know when the acceptances roll in. reminds me of the girls who had serious hope in USC bacc/md and brown PLME with scores in the 1900s = /.</p>
<p>im not saying u hav no chance…but with those scores, u have no chance. soo…ur SAT scores hold u back.</p>
<p>well if i was to bring up my score a little bit or with my present scored which of these colleges is best within my reach, please comment your help is appreciated</p>
<p>you know that is probably true, but can you give me advice on this college situation please, i really need to know which ones i have a shot at, thanks</p>
<p>If you’re just applying to which ones you have a shot at, that’s really going to shine through in your essays. Make sure you actually want to go to the school first, because the academic reputation and styles of education differ greatly between all these schools.</p>
<p>…
I find that it seems quite pointless to chance yourself at any of these programs…ie. we’re not the admissions committee and no one here can tell you how good of a shot you have…admissions (especially for these programs) are very unpredictable. Do yourself a favor and spend more time preparing for the SAT/interview than trying to find out from these people your shots at various programs.
And in regards to academic, etc as listed above, most medical schools are on a “standard” curriculum – you learn the same stuff everywhere…</p>
<p>Hmm, I’m not really sure about your chances, but I can spot a few glaring weaknesses within what you posted.</p>
<p>1) Lack of medical related ECs - perhaps I had a misconception of the rest of the students last year, but it seemed like a unique experience really boosted their chances. For me, I had my research which slightly helped me out. Others had much more interesting medical ECs, like working as a volunteer in the free med clinic. Essentially, what you have going doesn’t really make you stand out; everyone has shadowing doctors and hospital volunteer on their list; find something unique that you enjoy that is related to medicine.</p>
<p>2) As many others have pointed out, your scores are relatively low for the BA/MD program. I had a similar SAT score, so I took the ACT, which helped me out a lot. You should consider that in order to boost your chances.</p>
<p>3) While you have taken a much harder course load than a regular person who applies to BA/MD programs, it definitely doesn’t reflect positively on your gpa.</p>
<p>Ultimately, you work out those little kinks, write mind-blowing essays, and you’ll probably end up where you want to go!</p>
