<p>about the probation period issue
my program kicks you out at the end of sophomore year if your gpa is below a 3.5 overall or in science at that time
if you do get kicked out, you may appeal to be reinstated and if your appeal is accepted - then you have a term in which you may bring your gpa to a 3.5 and if not aren’t reinstated
if however, the appeal is unsuccessful like you dont have good enough reason for why your grades dropped etc, then you are just removed from the program</p>
<p>so they may or may not give you that one term probation period if you are kicked out</p>
<p>and I’m surprised to hear about that HPME students thing if that is true. That’s really terrible to hear. I always thought BA MD students were generally at the top of their medical school class - guess nott.</p>
