<p>I'm a high school Junior. I got accepted to Aidsummer (a program in which I would teach kids in Taiwan) and the Shumway Surgical Summer Internship at Stanford so far. The deadline to confirm for Aidsummer is April 20 and the Shumway Surgical deadline is April 9. I applied to two other programs which I am interested in attending, one being the City of Hope internship which comes out the second week of April, and COSMOS which comes out on May 1. I'm not sure how to choose because some of these results come out after another's deadline. In college, I want to study medicine. I need some advice?? Also, I'm not sure of the level of prestige of the Stanford Shumway Surgical program. Thank you!!</p>
<p>It is possible to contact the last two programs and ask for an early read. Just let them know that you are very interested in attending but must confirm another offer of admission prior to their admissions date.</p>
<p>i asked someone and he or she said that around 20 out of approximately 300 people got in last year to shumway. that’s about 6.6% which is pretty darn good haha. i got in too(: session 2!</p>
<p>Hey infinitynerd, I’m applying to the stanford surgical program this year. any details on what it was like and the grades/psat/extracurriculars needed to get in?</p>
