There was a thread somewhere on this, and I thought I’d share something.
Last night I was on the phone with a parent here in San Diego with a mid graduating in June. He is medical school bound! The mom told me there were 12 slots for the last 3 years open to USNA grads and they did NOT fill them any year. I don’t know if she means kids didn’t want to apply, or their grades/MCAT scores weren’t good enough, or what…but this is an interesting tidbit.

The young man is attending the Uniformed Services Medical School as his first choice, although the Navy would pay for ANY medical school he got into.

The mom rejoices that neither he or his family has medical school bills to think about!
