<p>Those MCATs must be awful important for med school admissions.</p>
<p>They must be.</p>
<p>My H’s niece went to a very pricey LAC for her pre-med program (borrowed WAY TOO much money for it) with the idea that she’s going to be a doctor and pay it all back. Well, she got good grades, but an average MCAT. No acceptances to med school. </p>
<p>She probably made the mistake of not applying to any “lower tier” med schools, and she will try again. </p>
<p>BTW…what is the approx number of med schools a student should apply to? 6? 8? more? less? What???</p>
