PSU accelerated medical program?

<p>yeah, i'd like to know...i mean the cutoff for psu is like 1450 or something....so everyone who applies will be top notch in terms of standardized testing</p>

<p>3.7 Gpa 1450 Sat</p>

<p>i got an interview fer feb 14th</p>

<p>gj piping</p>

<p>piping: what did the envelope/package look like? Is it a standard size letter or large one etc</p>

<p>I got the interview but I'm not gonna do it.</p>

<p>It's a small envelope that says "jefferson medical college" or something like that in blue letters in the upper left corner. It's stuffed with alot of crap, so it's pretty thick.</p>

<p>yeah
regular envelope...like 4 sheets of paper inside</p>

<p>all of the interviews will be held on valentines day...haha, hope i'll see some of ya CCer's there</p>

<p>Do you guys know if they send rejections now too? I live in Texas so I don't know how long it'll take for the letter to get here.</p>

<p>I got mine...and I'm in TX.</p>

<p>I live 30 minutes from Jeff and I didnt' get anything</p>

<p>don't worry aznsnake...remember, i got my notification a while before you did...and since these are taking place on the 14th, i'd say you still have a great shot....</p>

<p>and idk if it helps, but i live in nj.</p>

<p>im just a little worried cuz my stats are a little shaky (GPA/rank). Granted I had an extenuating cirumstance in a chronic illness which also helped motivate me to become a doc.</p>

<p>in-state student obviously
SATs: 1470 (670V and 800 M)
SAT II: 800 Math 2c, 770 Chem, 740 bio, 730 US
GPA: 3.61
Rank: 70/549
GPA and rank is affected due to an ongoing illness. This has influenced me to study medicine and i mentioned it in my essay.
AP: 5 in BC and US History, 4 in Chem
Current APs taking: English Lit, Statistics, World History, biology, and physics C</p>

<p>Eccs:
Mathletes Captain
AIME Qualifier 10th and 11th grade
EMT
Medical Scholar Program with Frankford Hospital, which is affiliated with Jefferson (like shadowing)
Newspaper Editor
Boys Varsity tennis</p>

<p>pretty good recs</p>

<p>Same here. My GPA/Rank aren't too good but I'm hoping I can at least get an interview with my SAT score.</p>

<p>at least u have an awesome SAT score. My SAT I score is only decent. Hopefully they will weight SAT2s cuz i think i did pretty good.</p>

<p>my gpa/SAT's:</p>

<p>SAT I: 1550
SAT II: mII-760, chem-690, bio m-740
gpa: 3.84</p>

<p>sat's and gpa might gimme a slight boost, but yer ec's more than make up for them (med scholar program, emt, mathletes, tennis)</p>

<p>i just got the interview letter
yay lol so is anyone doing the overnight thing?<br>
at first i was thinking i kind of have to be at school the next day... but it doesn't seem like a bad idea.<br>
so are all of us interviewees goign to be seeing each other that same day?<br>
should be fun i guess and interesting for those who will be joining each other next fall for the program..</p>

<p>is anyone here a girl?</p>

<p>all of the intervieweessssss are gonna see each other, that's pretty awesome! </p>

<p>nah, imma guy</p>

<p>did anyone's status change on the psu website?</p>

<p>mine still says "still being reviewed" and still haven't gotten anything yet</p>

<p>i dun think you should read too much into it...if you were rejected then they'd send you a notice...and if yer missing something, they'd also send you a notice...</p>

<p>yeah mine says a desicion has been reached. meaning i didnt get it. ah well.</p>
