It depends on the semester so there is no right answer.

The ballpark depends on the city and since cities have different populations, the ballparks differ in size. The fall semester has the most students and the May semester has the least so it depends on the semester.

Plus since different people enter every semester, the intellectual abilities differ and that makes it had to pin down a number.

Why is that important? The most important number is 1...that is in reference to the one number, which consists of you.

This simple question has nothing to do with concern regarding my successfull graduation.

I was wondering how many people graduate because I'm curious about how many students Ross has to assign to clinical sites.

I've completed my basic sciences and am looking for a school with better clinical sites. Ross has a lot more than my school, but if there are 200 students looking for clinical sites, then I know it will be a scramble, at least in terms of ACGME approved sites.

search the forums and you can find how bad the clinicals are!! people transfer out of ross to get better clinicals not the other way around

i would say 100-150 is the ball park of students graduating from basic sciences. yes your friend is right, it's a little higher right now because of a lot of transfers from st. chris.
and ross clinicals are not the hottest...be careful.

How would you know? You're not even close to being a clinical student...you're not even a medical student.

hmm let's see....i have over 10 family friends who have gone through ROSS....:shock:

i know how to use the search function and read up on many threads regarding clinicals rotations at ross :shock:

why don't you find something better to do than to comment on everything i post...and you're supposed to be a TA at ross? :shock:

finally...notice how i said "supposed" to be bad...not "it is" bad....there's a difference in the slight english there buddy....maybe you need to take your TOEFL again?? :rolleyes:

When did I mention I was a TA with Ross? Instead of me requiring remediation in basic skills, I believe it would be you that requires help with reading comprehention.

Glad to hear SOMEONE'S using the search function.

And my friend, you're in need of MUCH more searching and reading on this forum, as you've not yet realized that nobody takes the TOEFL anymore...well, depending on your citizenship. Well, why do I bother...you wouldn't know, you're not even a medical student. :D

Our class had 489 students the first day, 450 took the first exam, 375 took the second exam. After that, I don't know. I know a few of my classmates have left the island and told me they don't want to be doctors anymore (yikes) but most have left because they either got into another school or just realized they could not pass.
