<p>I got accepted to PSU but rejected from an interview. They mail out the rejections in a thin envelope lol.</p>
<p>tehy didn't even look twice at my letter cuz i misse dthe SAT score by 10 pts.</p>
<p>I got accepted to PSU .. .elberly college of science at U Park but got rejected for that interview thing....:(</p>
<p>oh well ... they only look at sats really for that initial thing... 2/3 of their preliminary decision to give an interview is SATs so yeah.</p>
<p>congrats to those who got their interviews though. :)</p>
<p>ya i heard from someone that the average SAT of interviewees was 1550 or something, which is pretty insane and 1000+ people applied. thats pretty insane, and i do think that they stress the SAT waaaay too much.</p>
<p>damn...that is crazy</p>
<p>a friend of mine got in with a 2100 flat...they took his highest combined score. The first time he took it he got like a 1700...lol. But, he is the president of a few clubs.</p>
<p>what did he get with math and verbal?</p>
<p>The first time he took it, I believe that his combined math and verbal was around a 1200, and the second time it was a 1400. I'm actually quite surprised as to how this kid pulled it off since he's on the verge of failing AP Chemistry.</p>
<p>that's messed up</p>
<p>wow all your stats are so amazing
how do people have time for like 500 hours of volunteering, 4.0 gpa, 2390 SATs, pres of 342545 clubs, varsity sports...</p>
<p>anyway, I never even heard of this six year program until yesterday. I got so interested and ended up here, and I finally realized there's about as much a chance to get in this program as that of an ivy league school....right? I have mostly holes in my stats because I didn't even take the SATs yet... but that I can still change. my rank is probably top 6% (if i try really hard, top 5%), 4.22 weighted gpa from my first two years of hs (but it dropped this year, hopefuly i can get my grades back up), i got 2200 on my PSATs (nowhere near what I'd like my SAT scores to be at)...</p>
<p>my EC's are pitiful. I thought being on a vars tennis team would be good. perhaps co-captain next year (hopefully) and my team won state champs this year. I hate clubs.. and I was always too lazy to go for anything special =( I volunteer some..dont know how many hours (it's certainly not 500.) I tutor, work...enjoy my life sometimes..</p>
<p>my school is so competitive; it annoys me. I swear people once thought that above 4.0 weighted gpa was amazing...now it's like, 4.2..? eh???
If I even get an interview...I'd like to think it'd help me...but I get nervous even thinking about the amount of pressure I'd feel to impress the interviewer...</p>
<p>so is the prospect of getting into psu's ba/md program entirely false hope?</p>
<p>there are a few people with worse stats than i think i'll get..but i don't think they got in. oh yeah, i forgot SATiis.. bio 790, chem 740. i think i can do above 750 for mathiic. </p>
<p>i envy all you who have finished your application process. i already have senioritis...</p>
<p>your solid dude, just don't fall under their SAT req. and you'll have a good shot at an interview....</p>
<p>yea pretty much for psu's med program just get above a 2300 or so and you should be fine (easier said than done but I think you can do it)</p>
<p>When I said fine, I meant get interview. 2300+ and good stats otherwise you'll most likely get interview. The actual cutoff to apply to the program is 1450/1600 though.<br>
After that it's all based upon how well you do at your interview.</p>
<p>Heyyy I just came here in way of one of you guys contacting me about the program specifics and such.</p>
<p>Errr I should probably mention that I'm a first-year in the program - 6 year option.</p>
<p>I hear the interviews are tomorrow...GOOD LUCK to those of you who are on that step!</p>
<p>And even if you didn't receive an interview, I really hope you decide to come to PennState because it is a great place to be.</p>
<p>irene yang told me that 50% of those who are interviewed are accepted. this is so exciting! the program seems so much more amazing after the interview day... good luck to us all! =)</p>
<p>yea, yesterday was pretty interesting. My interviewer was nice but she asked some tough questions.</p>
<p>Hey desianjali, did you go to freehold high school?</p>
<p>LOL VPat06, I AM from Freehold High School....Med/Sci '05!</p>
<p>HOW do you know this?????????</p>
<p>Glad to hear you guys are psyched about the program. Now the anticipation ensues.....I wish you all the best!</p>
<p>when do ppl find out again? april?</p>
<p>cool stuff... med sci '07 (but Vona and Mennuti are both leaving this year)
I just remembered an Anjali in school and I figured chances are that it probably was you... lol. I just had to ask.</p>
