<p>indian96: Pitt in a HEARTBEAT…one of top Med Schools on planet and great city to live in…low cost of living AND SUPREME Match history. I LOVE Pitt…if I wasn’t going to PLME, I would be at PITT. A 3.75 will keep you invested and embedded, yes, but you will KNOW alot! Ah yes, the BURDEN of CHOICE !!!</p>
<p>Hi everyone,
I am a new member. I would like to congratulate everyone on their acceptances. Hi dumich, I also got Brown PLME acceptance but received zero (0) aid. Wondering if you got any aid and will you attend the April 22-April 24 conference? Thanks…</p>
<p>Hi dumich,
If it’s ok with you, I will PM you about the April 22-24 conference at Brown. </p>
<p>@Johnny H Thank you very much for your advice. </p>
<p>tennis crazy…congrats on PLME…I will NOT be able to attend the April conference. Not sure about how PM works but will look into it.</p>
<p>I aspire to be a doctor one day and currently a high school senior residing in Cleveland area. I have been accepted to OSU and will most likely receive the Eminence scholarship which covers my college expenses (tuition + room + board). I have also been accepted into the 6 year medical program at NeoMed. I am having an extremely difficult time deciding between the two and would appreciate it if someone can advise and / or provide their perspective and the logic of what you would do in my situation.</p>
<p>My thinking so far …</p>
<p>Neomed pros: Graduate 2 years earlier so earning 2 years earlier, don’t have to score as high on MCAT, don’t have to worry about getting into medical school, close to home (as opposed to ending up at a medical school half way across the country)</p>
<p>Neomed con: There is no break from studying since school starts after HS graduation, and you go to school during summers too, Akron / Kent / Youngstown are tier 2 school not tier 1 (can get stressed out/exhausted), Undergrad (first 2 years) will end up costing me total of around $62K, whereas, OSU will be zero, not much opportunity to take diverse courses and be a more well rounded person, poorer placement during residency;</p>
<p>OSU pro: FREE and can use the money for med. school where very little scholarship is available, get summers off so will have change to travel, work, do internship/research, etc., can take diverse courses and be a more well rounded person, better social life and definitely more fun experience</p>
<p>OSU con: Will take 4 years instead of 2 years so will not be earning earlier, must perform very well and must score high on MCAT to get into good med. school, have to apply to med school (lot of work and stress), may not get into decent med. school and it may be far from Ohio,</p>
<p>@Good123School, is the program at OSU a DO program, rather than an MD program? I thought OU offers MD and OSU DO program. If it is just an UG program at OSU and if you are sure that medicine is what you want to do, the choice to me is obvious. Go to Neomed. The choice may be more difficult if it is between Neomed and an Ivy or top tier UG school.</p>
<p>Hi, did anyone receive an acceptance call yet from TCNJ for the TCN/NJMS program?</p>
<p>@sam8641</p>
<p>I believe calls go out tommorrow. Last year, students recieved the call on April 1st.</p>
<p>Is it true that TCNJ gives full tuition scholarships to TCNJ/NJMS program students? I heard that somewhere and don’t know if its true or not.</p>
<p>Yes, that is what I heard too but was not sure. Getting anxious as this is #1 for me. </p>
<p>I believe that they have scholarships but not sure if they are full tuition. </p>
<p>Anyone else still waiting from Union College/Albany Med?</p>
<p>@zzzMD96
My S is still waiting to hear from RPI/AMC, though at this stage, his priority is TCNJ/UMDNJ. </p>
<p>Albany will be notifying students either this Friday or Monday.</p>
<p>Does anyone know how Rutgers-Newark notifies about the program?</p>
<p>Hi dumich,
For PM, if you click on the inbox (next to the “star” top/right), you will see I sent you a message. Then for testing, could you please send me something. If possible, I would like to discuss further about PMLE with you without taking everyone’s time here on the public forum. If you prefer to chat on this public forum about PLME, I am ok with it too. Thanks…</p>
<p>Question for all those waiting for the TCNJ/NJMS decision. Have you already been accepted to the Undergrad @ TCNJ My S’s application status simply states that it is complete and nothing more.Just wondering if this works like NJIT, were they explicitly tell you that you have been admitted to their undergrad program at Albert Dormans </p>
<p>Hey everyone. Trying to decide between a full ride to Emory or UMKC. Help me out?</p>
<p>There was an email from TCNJ last week that they would not notify of the undergrad decision until after the med school advise TCNJ of who was accepted to the 7 year program. No one has been notified yet. </p>
<p>For asapaj5, I believe that if you are accepted to TCNJ/NJMS, you receive a call from TCNJ, If not, a letter is rejection letter is mailed. </p>
