Medical Research at Rockefeller University

<p>hey, i'm thinking of applying for the above program</p>

<p>it seems to be a decent program, but i wanted to get some advice as to whether it is worth doing it</p>

<p>please help me out--!</p>

<p>no one so far... anyone???</p>

<p>I'd like to apply but I am on the west coast. Is there a residential component or is it just commuter-based?</p>

<p>i think there is a residential component, but you might have to check..</p>

<p>do you think it's worth applying? it's not some joke type research program or anything like that?</p>

<p>plz, let me know</p>

<p>thanks,</p>

<p>omg I am going there over the summer. I already have a mentor and all. Rockefeller Univ. is one of the best biomed institiutions in the world. 23 noble laurates. Its an amazing program. If you get in it will look great on your resume. And if you are supervised by one of the nobels, and if they write you a rec, your set. :)</p>

<p>wow, cool</p>

<p>what's the dominant factor in the admission process? it doesn't seem like that grades or test scores matter too much; isn't it all about interview and stuff??</p>

<p>lol they dont interview you. ur essay, and grades matter the most</p>

<p>I'm really interested in this now!!!! I would love to go, but am afraid my stats aren't good enough. Is this a very competive program? Also, is this a free program or do you have to pay a lot of money like most of the other high school summer programs? OMG! I am so excited!!!</p>

<p>Are you guys talking about the science outreach program?</p>

<p>i think there is a proposal interview thing, isn't there??</p>

<p>and yes, we are talking about Rockefeller Outreach Program.., well at least I think so..;;</p>
