<p>Can you link the bsmd book? I would like to see the stats</p>
<p>@conniption10: does your book say around how many applicants VCU gets each year before it picks 60 to interview?
@theking101: which schools have you gotten interviews from so far?</p>
<p>Anyone who hasn’t heard back from gwu, check your junk mail. I got rejected ):
They said there were over 800 applications.</p>
<p>'Twas a sad week. Rejected from PSU/Jeff pre-interview. Do all PA schools give in-state preference?</p>
<p>Rejected from gw and VCU…</p>
<p>Scratch that, I just got the 2012 edition of the book. It’s called “BS/MD Programs: the complete guide” and it’s written by Todd Johnson. According to last year, VCU received 221 applications, interviewed 60, and had 22 new students in the program the next year. Makes me think they probably accept a little more than 22!</p>
<p>It also said last year UAB received 201 applications, while this year it received over 330. Some of these programs are skyrocketing in popularity. The Lehigh one is also cray- 1 new student out of 165 applicants.</p>
<p>I went to a scholars luncheon at vcu a few weeks ago and they said they had over 325 apps last year. I’m assuming its more this year. I’m not sure about the accuracy of the book. But yes I’m assuming they accept about 30 people from the interviews</p>
<p>…and there goes GW. 800 applicants. Does anyone feel that our year, everything seems to be so much harder? I’ve looked in previous years’ threads and they don’t seem to have as stringent with acceptances/interviews as they are this year.</p>
<p>Is it possible more students are applying in order to skip the new MCAT when the time comes?</p>
<p>Do any of these popular programs have an MCAT minimum score requirement?</p>
<p>Still didn’t get GW e-mail…are they sending them out in batches??</p>
<p>@Hamiltonlover: check your spam/junk mail. That’s where I found mine.</p>
<p>last year, boston university sent out a batch of interview notifications in january, and then another batch in february. does that mean there is still hope for that program? it’s literally the only school/program i want to go to. got my rejection from psu/jefferson yesterday and it really got me down.</p>
<p>I did…the nerves are killing me</p>
<p>I hope we all get into at least one program so far only two interviews and two rejections and I applied to 12</p>
<p>@sjh i know right… the year we have to apply it becomes 500 times competitive-er :(</p>
<p>I’m so scared ughh and I totally agree with u sanguinne</p>
<p>HOW DID YOU GUYS FIND OUT ABOUT VCU> I havent heard from them yet…</p>
<p>anyone else hear from tcnj 2nd interview other than that one guy?</p>
<p>@beamerm3 i got an email titled Status in GA Program with a doc saying i got an interview.
im really surprised about how many people in this thread were rejected… .___.</p>
<p>Congrats! But I am starting feel that something might have went wrong. I have not recieved an email from them yet…</p>
