I want to get into medical school, and I was looking at this website.

Insider Information on Individual Medical Schools’ In-State & Out-of-State Acceptance Rates
(says it was source is www.AAMC.com)

It says that Arkansas has the highest acceptance rate to medical school for in-state students. Would I be considered “in-state” if I apply to a medical school from Arkansas? or do I have to go to college there, get a job and actually have to pay for an apartment or some sort of housing over there? Speculating I achieve at least a 3.6, 30+ on the MCAT, going to school in Arkansas applying to a Arkansas medical school, how good are my chances of getting to a medical school? I’m also a minority, so that’s an advantage as well.

I’m trying to maximize my chances of getting into medical school. I also want to go into Internal Medicine and I want to be a LASIK eye surgeon or a Neurosurgeon and have a Private Practice with a partner.

Any feedback?

IDEALLY I would like to go to Rutgers University and go to UMDNJ At Robert Wood Johnson hospital, but I don’t even know how good of a chance i’ll have to become a doctor since acceptance rates are so slim.
