<p>Yes, my school includes honors classes in the GPA as well. Underclassmen at my school aren’t allowed to take APs unless they’re bilingual (AP Spanish, for example) or extremely advanced in mathematics. </p>
<p>And doctor2b, thanks, I really hope so. Both of you have extremely impressive scores/transcripts; well done.</p>
<p>riapal, when did u receive the AMC supplement? i havent received anything from RPI/AMC still.</p>
<p>how many people here are NOT Asian/Indian/Brown? just curious.</p>
<p>I got my acceptance letter for NEOUCOM</p>
<p>i got deferred from NEOUCOM, but im out of state.</p>
<p>I got it on December 21st, and it’s due tomorrow. Maybe they’re doing applications in batches or something? I’m not sure.</p>
<p>im still waiting on the rpi/amc program too. i got deferred from NEOUCOM, but im also out-of-state.</p>
<p>NEOUCOM is so not worth it if you’re OOS.</p>
<p>so NOW people decide to start posting…</p>
<p>Hey doctor2b, I saw your stats in another thread and I suspect you’re from NJ. If you are, why didn’t you apply to UMDNJ’s programs? They are probably one of the most numbers-oriented programs considering they don’t even ask for an additional essay and I have seen many with similar stats (SAT, APs, research) to yours get accepted. However, I don’t know how your gpa compares in terms of rank.</p>
<p>schrizto, my school doesnt rank or give percentages so thats okay.</p>
<p>i didnt apply to any of the umdnj ones because i really dont want to go to umdnj for med school. even if i get in, i highly doubt ill go since i have a decent enough undergrad under my belt (uchicago) and am expecting to get into princeton university, considering that about 20-25 people from my school do get in each year.</p>
<p>rutgers/umdnj also only accepts 9/1000
bu/umdnj is 10/40, but i wanted to apply to bu/bu, and you cant apply to both.
tcnj or drew/umdnj id rather not do since the undergrads are super awful</p>
<p>lol, I really doubt 1000 people apply to Rutgers/UMDNJ alone. My MSAR book says a little under 300 apply to UMDNJ’s programs each year (any undergrad school). The Rutgers/UMDNJ one isn’t that great because you have to spend your undergrad at Rutgers-Newark and not NB. TCNJ/UMDNJ is the biggest one (and my parents really wanted me to go to this program, ugh). </p>
<p>Cost-wise for a NJ resident they’re good, I guess it depends on what someone wants out of college. There was a guy last year who went to a high school near mine who was accepted to like, everywhere and went to TCNJ/UMDNJ over all of them. You’re right though, the program is overrated.</p>
<p>idk, i called rutgers a rutgers admissions officer and they said that 1000 applied to the program. he could have been trying to make it sound more prestigious than it really was, but i told him point blank how umdnj doesnt have that great a program and theres no way they could boast that low an acceptance rate.</p>
<p>also, im lucky in that financial aid isnt that big of a deal for me. sure, if i got hpme v. rice/baylor, my parents would probably want me to go to rice/baylor (even though they want me to stay w/in driving distance, but chicago isnt driving distance) but money isnt a big deal. i feel really obnoxious saying that since i know it is a big problem for almost every single person out there…the weird thing is that my parents dont hold particularly wealthy jobs…state worker and nurse, but they saved a helluva lot over the years in preparation. i guess since theyre brown they saved all the money they could over the years ^^</p>
<p>For combined programs, I applied to University of Rochester’s REMS, UConn’s Combined Program in Medicine, Stony Brook U, Ursinus, PennState, Drexel, Siena/AMC, and RPI/AMC. I called Ursinus and the lady said that I didn’t get into the BS/MD program but some girl with a name similar to mine did (…ouch). I didn’t really care because I decided to apply there last minute and they got my SAT scores a few days after the deadline.</p>
<p>UConn’s BS/MD program and REMS are my top choices, but I’m really pulling for UConn. I love the campus and they already gave me a full-tuition merit scholarship.</p>
<p>Hey fianchetto, congradulations on your interview…</p>
<p>What types of questions were you asked…in the interview at SBU</p>
