<p>I'm trying to get into one of the programs in US, but I heard that these programs tend not to accept foreign students. But I remeber that one student from my school actually got accepted to Rochester.... Would they accept foreign students if their scores and ECs are outstanding?</p>
<p>Rochester??? Was he/she completely an international student???
I mean, Was he/she accepted Rochester BA/MD without green card or US citizen???
If so, do you know anything about his stat??? I’m really curious about it.</p>
<p>he graduated about 2 yrs ago… his stats were really really outstanding… he had 4.0 GPA, over 2300 SAT 1, 800s on all 3 SAT subject tests, 15 AP 5s… about ECs, i don’t know much but i know that he did research for 4 yrs as high school student and participated in hospital work for 4 yrs and stuff… my counselor told me that he had never seen someone who performed his interviews better than this kid… and of course he was completely international</p>
<p>Wow pretty impressing!!
by the way where is he from???
if he is Chinese or Indian or Korean
If would have been pretty much a disadvantage…</p>
<p>by the way compare to him do you think I have any chance???</p>
<p>my SAT is over 2300(CR+M is 1600),
10 APs(1/3 of which would be 4 and others would be 5)
SAT2 bio 770 chem 780 math IIC 800 world history 800 physics expect 750+
for GPA i’ll assume 4.0/4.0(unweighted) as i don’t know how my school
will convert my score into US GPA scale…
for EC I’m a club veep and founder and president of another club
and I’m a participant of ASC([2009</a> Asian Science Camp/Japan](<a href=“http://asc09.kek.jp/]2009”>http://asc09.kek.jp/))
and will have research internship in a famous hospital in my country
([Asan</a> Medical Center - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asan_Medical_Center]Asan”>Asan Medical Center - Wikipedia))
and have some shadowing doctor experience and
volunteering in local health center…</p>
<p>※I think most BA/MD programs accept
applies from international students…
send mails to each BA/MD program</p>
<p>which school do you go to? KMLA? HAFS? Daewon? i know you’re korean… (asan hospital…) kkkkk</p>
<p>me???
My school is not such a famous one??
My school is a foreign language high school near seoul(it’s not in seoul)
but my school is not so good as KMLA or HAFS and almost does not
send its students to US univs…</p>
<p>by the way, are you from some kinds of foreign language high school???
if so, i think you are from daewon???</p>
<p>i don’t go to such a famous school either… so are you going to apply to BA/MD programs for early decision? (or early action… either way)</p>
<p>I think I’ll apply to a bunch of BS/MD???(10 schools or less???)</p>
<p>Only going schools like HYPSMC or Ivies does not
ensure going med school to foreigners…
(I even heard that foreigner only go so-so med school
with score that can bring US citizens or residents to
top 10 med school)</p>
<p>sad to be foreigners in US and have to do military service…
even though I don’t love my country so much…</p>
<p>i’m seeing a counselor to help me apply to us colleges/universities, but he says that my chance of getting into these programs (even with exceptional scores, ECs and essay) is very very slim and advises me to apply to other schools… i think i’m going to apply to Brown PLME and Rice/Baylor… i know that PLME accepts foreign students, but what about Rice/Baylor?</p>
<p>Ah… i think both accept foreign students??
but both are hard to get in(rice/baylor is harder as baylor is good med school)</p>
<p>actually you should looking for BA/MD programs of less prestigious schools
if you really wanna get in???</p>
