<p>Are you instate or OOS?</p>

<p>the 34 act score is good…although the program says you can apply with a 3O , most that get in have a 34 or above. it is a very selective program, but an excellent one. that is just one path to med school though, if you have questions about uab or the sci/tech honors program, feel free to pm me. another great path to med school…uab will give you lots and lots of opportunities for research, shadowing, volunteering etc</p>

<p>@Mom2collegekids OOS</p>

<p>Parent56 may know more about this, but I don’t think they accept many OOS students. I think there are about 10 accepted to the program; I don’t know how many are usually OOS. </p>

<p>That said, your stats are good, so all you can do is try. All of these BS/MD programs are very competitive.</p>

<p>from their website:
EMSAP does not have any quotas for in-state students. Generally, the class is balanced between in and out-of-state students, but decisions that determine if students are admitted are based on the student, not necessarily his or her resident status.</p>

<p>they used to list current students/state in the past and i have seen it be pretty balanced between in and out of state students</p>

<p>So, maybe 5 OOS students accepted?</p>
