<p>THANK YOU</p>

<p>Bump Bump............................</p>

<p>!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!one!!!!!!!!!!!!11!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>sorry to say it but if you don't bring up your SAT score by at least 100 in each section, i.e. 300+ points up in total, your chance of getting into 8 years med program is zero.</p>

<p>so are Cornell, UCLA, Duke, and GT.</p>

<p>So if I get my SATs up, I have a good chance?</p>

<p>also what about my ACT score? it that in line?</p>

<p>for 8 year med programs, bringing yer SAT's up by 300 points will still make it a reach.</p>

<p>fo reals man. you need a few 800s to look decent</p>

<p>sat 1s and 2s</p>

<p>Unknown4ever:</p>

<p>Assuming you are a California resident,
UCLA: Reach
UCSD: Slight Reach</p>

<p>Univ of Rochester 8-yr Med program - Huge reach. You need near 800 SATs. And your unweighted GPA needs to be close to 4.0, if your weighted GPA is only 4.2 you need to improve it a lot in the next two semesters. Good luck.</p>

<p>Let's say that we call of teh 8 year. What would my chances be for U of rochester, cornell, UCLA, DUKE, any others u guys suggest. That to with my new SATs on my latest practice test</p>

<p>I got my newest SAT scores:</p>

<p>Math:670
CR:650
Writing: 600</p>

<p>Total:1970</p>

<p>Duke and cornell - reach (5% each)
ucla - slight reach (35%)
u rochester reg not 8 year med- match (90%)</p>

<p>So how can I improve my chances at UCLA. I live about an hour and a half from it</p>

<p>Unknown4ever:</p>

<p>Improve your SAT I scores to above 2000.</p>

<p>...you do know that 670+650+600 = 1920...not 1970...right?</p>

<p>My Act Isn't Enough For Ucla????</p>

<p>no. i woudl say 31 at the very least.</p>

<p>How is the pre-med program at U of rochester</p>

<p>Excellent pre-med pgm.</p>

<p>Does pre-med really matter. I mean all these people on CC only want to go to top notch schools because of prestige or because of their parents. But, for me, quality of education matters. In this case, does it matter where I go for studying pre-med. </p>

<p>Also, do med schools differentiate between schools. I mean would they look a UC student the same as someone from Cornell? </p>

<p>Thanks again guys</p>
