Hi, just wondering how hard it is to get into this program. It would be appreciated if someone who applied (accepted, rejected, or waitlisted) would not mind posting their stats.
Here are mine, can you tell me what I have to work on?
SAT: 2200
GPA: ~105, 106
APs:
World-5
Bio
English Lang
APUSH
Stats
Senior year:
Chem
English Lit
US Gov
Macro
Calc BS
Accelerated Science Research Class (also doing research outside of school currently)
I have some good ECs with leadership positions as well.
What should I work on to increase my chance of acceptance?
Don’t know much about the Brooklyn program specifically but you should be quite a competitive applicant, especially because it’s a smaller program. Just make sure among those ECs you have some medical experiences (shadowing, hospital volunteering).
Thank you so much for responding. I shadowed three doctors, volunteered at the hospital, and did research. I’m concerned because although I believe I have the stats (I spoke with the director), he also mentioned that they don’t often take students from my area of NY. This comment concerned me- I don’t know if the program is primarily for students in NYC… (I live about 1.5 hours away from NYC)
