<p>i know my gpa is really low for these competitive programs but what are my chances at ba md programs like brooklyn, union, wayne state and siena?</p>

2

<p>anyone???? :]</p>

3

<p>oh yeah, and i got a 31 on my ACT...</p>

4

<p>You have good chances at all of those schools. They seem like matches to me. Are you applying to any reach schools?</p>

5

<p>are you serious therifleman62?!?! i'm applying to the bs/ba md programs at these school. i thought they would all be reaches!</p>

6

<p>thanks SO much for the reply therifleman62!</p>

7

<p>what about the programs at rpi, drexel, rochester and uconn?</p>

8

<p>therifleman62 is right, I'd even say you are lowballing yourself. Aim Higher you only get one chance at applying to colleges, don't regret not shooting for a dream school</p>

9

<p>wait a second...for the eight year programs at these school?! i heard these programs were REALLY competitive and only the best in the country get in...</p>

10

<p>thanks for the reply dimitrimartin :]</p>

11

<p>I didn't notice that but you probably have a good shot for these conjoined programs. If you aren't set on joint medical and undergrad programs apply to mid tier 1 schools.</p>

12

<p>ohhh...i knew i was getting off too easy ;]
my heart is REALLY set on going to a combined eight year med program...</p>

13

<p>is there anyone who was accepted to a eight year med program with similar stats to mine?</p>

14

<p>or anyone with any advice on how i can get into one of these programs? (keep in mind i'm applying this year )</p>

15

<p>I haven't heard of these specific programs before. But assuming that they are on the lower end of the BAMD pgm spectrum, I'd say you've got a good shot. Keep in mind the essays are KILLER in determining whether you get accepted.
Ask yourself (if you haven't already) why you want to be a physician. </p>

<p>If you haven't already, most BAMD pgms have interviews and I will GUARANTEE you that that will be one of the biggest questions. It is also for med school interviews.

<p>Keep in mind there is no magic answer.</p>

16

<p>I am not familiar with these programs, but your Stats, ECs, etc. look good. I'd also apply to some reach schools.</p>

17

<p>thanks bvrian for the reply :] i like to think i got a handle on my essays...</p>

18

<p>thanks zoe09 for the reply :]</p>

19

<p>programs that are 7/8 year are VERY competitive </p>

<p>GPA is a bit low for some programs but these programs like sophie davis look a lot into how much you are interested not just your scores. They like to see that you are really dedicated and don't mind busting your butt lol.</p>

<p>SAT I's are good, but I recommend boosting your SAT II's and I think you'll be fine</p>

20

<p>Yeah you shoudlnt have any problem at all getting in to these schools. Go for John Hopkins. Aim higher.</p>
