<p>I had a nice convo with a Bama pre-med advisor last week. Bama’s med school acceptance rate is 80%. Those who don’t get accepted are largely to blame - either they apply to too few med schools and/or their stats are not good enough. </p>
<p>I asked why some only apply to a few med schools and I was told that some only apply to nearby med schools because they’re in relationships and/or they only apply to the 2 instate med schools because of low cost.</p>
<p>Those with good stats and the willingness to apply to various med schools get accepted.</p>
