<p>Mainly, I feel horrible about my SAT II scores (except bio). Do you think my sat score and other parts of the app (interview, essays) will make up for it?</p>

<p>750+ SAT2 should be your cutoff, I really think retaking Chem to at least break 700 would help, several programs require it. Shadowing a physician would be nice, the rest of your ECs/stats are strong.</p>

<p>So how many hours are good for shadowing a physician? I just started shadowing an oncologist. I’m going to shadow a cardiologist next month and may shadow another physician later. But I also want to get some hours in at the emergency room. What should be my target?</p>

4

<p>They don’t care about hours in my experience, just what you learned from shadowing. As long as you use it for essays and interviews well, it’s enough hours.</p>

5

<p>If you follow Neoevolution’s advice you are in the running for everything except Harvard and Brown which is like winning the lottery with their longshot odds.</p>

6

<p>^Wait, even Columbia and Cornell? Interesting choices I have for college lol</p>

<p>Sorry for necro’ing this thread</p>

<p>Would applying ED to Brown help my chances?</p>

7

<p>ED has higher acceptance rates, but better applicants also apply early more frequently. Since PLME is so competitive, it’s not a bad idea.</p>
