Pre-Med & Medical School Multiple Degree Programs

<p>haha, ok first off apologize to antique for changing the subject of the thread, since she started it, not me. Ok anyways, on to your question. Actually a friend of mine's older brother graduated from UDM and got into several medical schools. I'm not sure what he did or how UDM is, since I didn't apply. I do know that he had a competitive MCAT (34-36), a high GPA, and he graduated in 3 years. His decision ultimately was between University of Michigan or Duke for med school and he chose Michigan for various reasons. He went to UDM with a full scholarship (his dad works there, and he had great high school stats), so he saved a lot of money by choosing UDM.</p>

<p>BTW- my interview went pretty well for the Med Scholars Program. My student interview was by someone who graduated from my school! lol. Good luck to everyone else that applied.</p>

42

<p>Wow, I'm hijacking my own thread. haha.</p>

<p>Anyway, anyone heard of Wayne's med prog? Anyone applied? Just curious...</p>

43

<p>I applied, but unfortunately did not receive an interview. Weird, because MSU's prog is much more difficult to get into, let alone receive an interview.</p>

44

<p>No way!</p>

<p>Yeh, MSU is def. harder-- I'm really surprised you didn't get invited to Scholars Day. Well, it's on the 19th, so I'm going. My sis is actually in the program already!</p>

45

<p>Actually, I was invited to Scholars Day. I wasn't invited for a MedStart interview. I'm still going to compete for the scholarship. I'll be there on the 19th as well.</p>

46

<p>i'm going to scholars day, but a relative of mine applied to the medstart program but actually got a letter of rejection. I think it was rolling admiss.
Im just trying to get more info about UDM so I can jsut decide were I want to go!</p>

47

<p>I dont think it was rolling admissions. They stop receiving apps by Jan 15th and then review all.. I could be wrong tho...</p>

<p>UDM--Detroit Mercy? Are you talkign about their dental prog? Don't know about a medical prog...</p>

48

<p>Um, actually I was talking about their general undergrad school. I just really want to know more about this University. But ya they do have a dental program</p>

49

<p>for those of you who shadowed a physician, what do you do? And how did you start? I'm a junior and am looking at these programs.</p>

50

<p>Hey, do any of my peeps who interviewed for this program, or anyone else know when we find out if we got in or not?</p>

51

<p>Week of March 10. I'm crossing my fingers...</p>

52

<p>Anyone heard anything from ADS?</p>

53

<p>I got a letter saying that I was not a finalist for ADS.</p>

54

<p>I didn't participate in ADS</p>

55

<p>Same here. I already have full tuition anyway so it's not like I care.</p>

56

<p>Hey, I'm just curious- was your full tuition because of a merit based in-state scholarship? Also good luck within the next 10 days!</p>

57

<p>One of my friends who interviewed as well said that Christine Shafer told the parents that we would find out on March 10th. I heard that it would be the week of March 10th. That's this Thursday! What is correct?</p>

58

<p>All I know, is that is says BEFORE mid-March. March 10th would be awesome!</p>

59

<p>yeah i'm hoping for March 10th. I think it's March 10-15. They might do it the same way as they did for interview invites (ie sending them out on 2 or 3 diff days). I'm still crossing my fingers.lol.</p>

60

<p>I got the Spartan Tuition Enhancement Fund. I didnt even apply for it though, they just gave me a letter in the mail saying because of my activities and academics and stuff. </p>

<p>Anyway, yeh, I'm crossing my fingers for the 10th also. GL to everyone!</p>
