JHU's Strong points !?

<p>chocoholic,
The link gives you total # of applicants (not just Asians) at each undergraduate school. You can backward link to find # of applicants for other races or click on “home” to access AAMC homepage that provides more data. You can find acceptance rate at individual school, e.g.,

Given total # of applicants and acceptance rate, you can compute the total # of accepted MED students. You might consider the size of school and the MED # for your school choice.
I personally would like to choose schools such as Harvard, Princeton, JHU that have >90% acceptance rate and reasonable MED # even if they discourage disqualified students to apply (Do you have evidence for this?) rather than schools that have below national average (50%) acceptance rate. Because I know that if I am qualified to apply, I have 90% probability to get in a medical school.</p>
