Accelerated Medical Program

<p>oh and hey desichick! congrats on all your offers must be pretty hard to choose huh? i got brown (the plme thing) penn duke and cambridge in the uk so i was in quite a predicament last week. but ive decided that i should go for this cos it sounds that we're going to be in for a great time and we'll have a future too lol!</p>

<p>Hey guys, I am planning to do pre-med. I was wondering if anyone knew what the acceptance rate was for undergrads who go on/get accepted to med school after boston university. Because I cannot decide between Haverford and Boston U. Thanks!</p>

<p>Hi Pharmagal! Unfortunately I’m not a NJ’ite, but from the New England area. I was like your S too last week. For me, the ivys represented the epitome of intelligence. Not being accepted last week kind of made me feel a bit depressed until I realized that my sorrow was going to waste as I had some fantastic schools that were offering me great packages. I had realized that I would make the most out of my education wherever I go to college, whether that is at an ivy league or at another top college. </p>

<p>BU students can’t get the Trustee after the first year at BU as it is given to graduating seniors entering the university. There are 20 students who are given this honorable scholarship so it is very competitive. There are other scholarships that students can apply for after their first year in college. I’m not positive so, I would suggest you look on the BU financial aid website for more information in regards to that. </p>

<p>Hi Arvindd!
Congrats to you too!!! Those are some very awesome schools you got accepted to but I can see why you are choosing the BU SMED. Cutting off a year of education and getting early admission to a medical school is a major plus. </p>

<p>I look forward to meeting you guys on the 20th!!</p>

<p>hey guys!! soo i got into bu smed as well and i thought id say hi!!! are you all going to the open house event on the 20th?? </p>

<p>Hi All,</p>

<p>My S just rec'd a call from TCNJ/UMDNJ. He was accepted in their 7yr BS/MD program.</p>

<p>Now, on to tough decision making for him. </p>

<p>DesiMomof2011</p>

<p>oh..hope i get that call too...however i would pick bu cuz its a way better medical school and i like boston much more than the tcnj campus..just my choice though</p>

<p>Hi Guys,</p>

<p>Since all of you are accepted in the BA/MD program at BU. I suspect one of you knows the information on where the grads from BU med school are being matched for residency.</p>

<p>Could one of you on this BA/MD thread please post the link to BU residency match list for 2006 and 2007?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>is this it?</p>

<p>Appreciate you posting this link, Desichick.
It gives us some idea of where the docs from BU were being accepted in 2003.</p>

<p>It would be good to have historical data for 2005, 2006, and 2007 as well. So, we could figure out trends as well........whether there are increases in acceptance rates at certain institutions or decreases etc.</p>

<p>If any of you come across this, please do post the links.
Greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>Got them. Just change the year and the corresponding one is saved at the same site address.</p>
