<p>Huntsman is pretty much a crap shoot. I heard acceptance rates are ridiculously low. Don’t bank on it
Huntsman Program at Upenn - reach

  • Stanford - reach
  • Rice - match
  • Plan II at UT - match
  • Georgetown - reach</p>

<p>There are plenty of 6 year medical programs at prestigious med schools that will take you.</p>

3

<p>thanks</p>

<p>is there like a comprehensive list of the 6 year medical programs anywhere?</p>

<p>what about john’s hopkins? with my stats and ECs and stuff, do I stand a chance getting into JHU?</p>

4

<p>yea, check out the pre-med forum under graduate schools </p>

<p>JHU is a reach</p>

5

<p>Is Latin your language for Huntsman?</p>

6

<p>AZN, since when does JHU have a 6 year med program? Theres like 3 programs with 6 year med programs, so you obviously don’t know much.</p>

7

<p>JENKSTER - no, my language is Hindi and yes I am racially from India but NO my parents don’t speak that language because I’m from a part of India that speaks Marathi</p>

8

<p>I didn’t say there was a 6 year program at JHU</p>

<p>I said JHU was a reach for him…(as clearly indicated by “JHU is a reach”, perhaps I didn’t put enough spaces between the two distinct statements)…</p>
