<p>I know CMC is more about government and leadership (which is awesome!) but I was wondering how CMC was for pre-med.. its between CMC vs. USC vs. Emory right now...gahh! Help me!</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>there are way more science majors at CMC then you would think because of joint science, if memory serves me correctly their med school acceptance rates are fantastic</p>
<p>I think its like 100% acceptance into a med school, 90% into either first or second choice. it seems like a good place to be</p>
<p>are classes “curved” i keep hearing about a “curve” in classes to avoid whole classes getting As (which is dumb in my opinion, you should deserve the grade you work for!) is that a problem at cmc? I am really thinking about coming here next year</p>
<p>No, classes are not curved. According to the CMC Registrar, the average gpa at CMC is between a B+ and an A-.</p>
<p>Wow, that’s great! Any other pre-med advice out there? Any insights would be VERY helpful</p>
<p>classes are small; intro classes like bio and chem have like about 40 students per class. Upper div classes are about 20ish. Professors actually teach the labs too, which is a major plus. Classes generally have no curve, so you get what you deserve. Curves in college are different from curves in hs. </p>
<p>Just to make it clear, curves are set so the class avg will equal a b-/c+ and so depending on your class if everyone is smart (even if everyone is scoring above 90s, class avg score would = b-). We typically dont have that sort of system in our science classes.</p>
