True but to take ALL bio majors and to imply that only 20% get into medical schools is misleading. Many bio majors have no intent of ever applying into medical school and go on to a variety of other careers. Granted, many schools may limit LOR’s or use other methods to discourage students from applying but the bottom line is close to 50% that do apply are accepted.</p>
<p>I understand there are valid reasons for wanting to attend a program that guarantees admission to medical school but unless someone is a horrible test taker the above average student who scores well on the MCAT will get in somewhere. I just don’t think that implying only 20% of students that apply the traditional route get in is a valid one.</p>
