“It’s just a lot of work, as it is probably meant to be. If they’re going to hand out “get into medschool free” cards, and then stop considering the MCAT and lower GPA requirements, then how are they supposed to decide who gets the ticket?”</p>
<p>Fallenchemist is right, this program accepts students right out of high school. High school seniors apply and are chosen to be in this program. Only the people in this program receive guaranteed acceptance, other students with the same stats would not have a guaranteed acceptance. </p>
