yah im still waitlisted at a couple schools in the US....USC, Brody


But whoever I hear from first gets me I guess. Either way Im really excited about the oppurtunity to head down to AUC for school.

Good luck with US schools. Very surprised that you even got waitlisted though with that undergrad GPA and MCAT.

yah well I guess the eagle scout, and tons of service...extracurriculars..LOR...etc helped

none of that stuff usually helps unless grades and MCAT are where they should be. I'd think the graduate program had more of an influence, certainly more than eagle scout. That and a bit of luck.

Yah probably that and the interview helped alot. Im a people person so I think if I didn't have a good interview I would have been canned automatically..haha

is the school getting as competitive as SGU...or do they accept more ppl

AUC actually doesn't accept that many people. Our largest class is about 150. The school though is definitely getting more competitive.

im sorry..i didnt mean more as in bigger classes..i meant more as in more diversified gpas..cuz the average is what a 3.2?

AUC will look into more factors than just GPA alone, if that's what you're asking. But they still require a competitive GPA compared to the mean.

Hi wondering my chances for the next starting semester as well as Spring 08.
I have a ** in Information Technology from American InterContinental University. Graduated with a 4.0- Summa Cum Laude.
Took some med school pre-reqs from community college, maintained 4.0 with full-time course load and full-time job.
Took remainder of pre-reqs at 2 universities, part-time course load, and have a total of 3 **, the rest all As. The ** were all in science pre-reqs though. That gives me a total gpa of about 3.8.
Have shadowing and hospital paid work and volunteer experience.
Made 23O on MCAT last August, am scheduled to retake in July this summer. Applied to local state MD school and was rejected w/o interview.
I am a little older than traditional student and married with children.
So what do ya think? Thanks!
