Im planning on applying to SABA and im taking the MCAT in April, but ive only been getting 25-27 on my practice exams. I know that SABA doesnt require the MCAT but i thought it would help because i only have a gpa of 2.7. Now im thinking that my MCAT score is going to make my profile look even worse. Should i apply before i take the test ie right now, or wait and hope that i do well enough to get in. Im concerned that my grades just arent good enough...

There's nothing wrong with a 25-27. In fact, there are med schools (MD and DO) that would consider you with a 27 and 2.7.

:shock: WHAT!!! You must be kidding. Here check out this link http://www.mdapplicants.com/ Based on applicant profiles on this site, you have approximately a 1 in 3000 shot to get into a US medical school with those stats.

Boulder dont get me wrong as an overall applicant you maybe as good as anyone. But one of the greatest challenges of applying to a US medical school, is to have someone look at your application objectively out of a pool of 4000+ applicants.

Don't believe everything you read on the internet (myself included), but I think a 27 is relatively competitive for any Carib school. Do yourself a favor, though and call Gardner to talk numbers.

Best of Luck!

i think he was talking about foreign M.D. and united states D.O. - as being competitive for those

according to that site ( http://www.mdapplicants.com/ ) They accepted someone to the university of Toronto with a GPA of 2.3 and an MCAT of 29.
I wonder how accurate that is because I know many who got rejected from UofT med school despite having a GPA greater than 3.8 (I don't know their MCAT score but was probably higher than 29).
What is more is that It clearly says in UofT's website that you must have at least 3.6 to have chance for an interview.

I think the best advice is that you do your best in school and apply.

I don't know how true is the information about 2.3 GPA....their cut back was 3.84...now that was a high GPA requirement...but if you have sources then anything is possible....

You think that's amazing, how about this one. There is a student with GPA 2.8 and MCAT 24 who was accepted to Harvard medical school.

I think that it would be difficult to confirm the accuracy and integrity of information reported on this website simply due to the anonimity of it's members. But when you look at statistics from each medical school, especially when you compare accepted vs rejected, you can really see how random and arbitrary the admission process really is. There are plenty of applicants with very high numbers who are rejected from both low end and high end schools.

To the OP:
There is a sticky called "What are my chances for admission to Saba University School" (http://www.valuemd.com/ftopic5177.html) in this forum. Myself and many others have honestly placed our stats for view on that thread. It will give you a good way to compare your stats and get an idea of how close you are to the average matriculant. Of course, you are an unique individual and so you might get in even if you are no where near the average applicant stat-wise. But obviously you can get an idea.
Best of luck to you!

That all may be true, but what is it worth dwelling on it? I know a minority female who was accepted to my local US med school with a 2.2 GPA. It sucks, it's not fair, we know. Old news, man.
It is amusing when you follow the trend of some of the valueMD members who initially join by being friendly, humble, inquisitive, and curious, but as soon as they are accepted to a medical school their attitude suddenly changes. They become experts on a range of topics, making overly generalized claims such as all caribbean schools accept just any applicant, or that admissions at all schools are completely random.
It doesn't help the OP at all, man. Just muddies the waters.

Take a look at AAMC stats and you will see that a few people get in every year with relatively low GPA's or MCAT's. I'm sure they have something else the admissions committee liked - like research, diversity, a good story, the right name, a big checkbook or maybe just "the negatives".

You can sit back and moan and groan and get angry or you can just apply to other schools and go to the best medical school that you can get into.

Like I said before, 27 should be good enough for any Caribbean school and is obviously good enough for a lot of US DO and some MD schools.

Best of Luck!

First of all you should never plagarize posts. But I think that you understand very well that the post you erroneously sited was directed primarily towards you. I always knew that your nauseating, spurious, pseudo-poetic reflection on your web site, describing your experience of arriving on SABA island for the first time, was always nothing more than literal antithesis of who you really are. Furthermore, I never make any absolute statements about anything, unless if I can back them up with a real source where that information may have originated. I reported a web site which exists, that describes statistics of both successful and unsuccessful medical school applicants. The information may or may not be acccurate, but it shows very clearly how muddy the water already really is. When did I ever write that all Caribbean medical schools take any applicant, or that the admission process is completely random? Dont worry WOLVY, I'm sure that you were accepted to SABA university on some merit, and the person next to you was likely rejected because he or she fell short of the standard set by the admissions committee. But remember that the purpose of Caribbean medical schools is to take the so called "US rejects", "border line applicants", and objectively evaluate not only their aptitude towards the science of medicine, but also their potential to become effective physicians. This is exactly the reason why numerical averages, like the MCAT and GPA, are significantly lower than the averages of applicants in the US. I also made it clear to the OP that his overall qualifications maybe as good as the qualifications of any applicant on valuemd, and that includes you WOLVY. But as far as US medical schools are concerned he/she can be easily overlooked simply as a function of the size in the applicant pool, and strict numericalo cut offs.

By the way I never wrote anyhting about the admissions process being unfair, or made any statements about minorities having an easier time getting into medical school. This appears to be your excuse WOLVY. But it is to some extent inconsistent, and as efficient as the best effort of a group of people, who are not perfect, comprising the admissions committee. Therefore the admissions process is not perfect, and that is why it is very difficult to respond to the "what are my chances" thread as realistically, and effectively as possible.

Are you trying to say that Saba did unjust to you and that you are not happy about it...or to be specific you are not happy about going to SMU......seems like you really wanted to get into Saba but were turned down...but don't worry keep on trying may be you will get lucky..... :lol: :lol: :lol:

And by the way....all this figure of speech of your points out to one thing that you don't want to accept your failure in getting into Saba and you trying to take your anger on wolfgang22....:lol: :lol: ......my advise: get over with it.....and move on.....

Siddman, it was plagarized not quoted, scroll back up, and read again, this time carefully. Furthermore, I was never rejected by SABA, read my previous posts again, this time carefully......ok, now that you have gathered all of the relevant information, believe it or not, I still cannot decide which option is better. The point is that I have two great opportunities, and I have to decide which path to take. The only difference is that I would start one program in September and the other in January.

But anyway, is this really the best you can do, by trying to throw it in my face that I'm bitter or unhappy because according to you I was rejected by SABA. Sid, sorry there buddy, you wont trap me into one of your high school pissing contests. I definitely have nothing to prove here.

:lol: That was just weak, brother. :wink:
So you don't like being hoisted by your own petard, do you? I apologize for plagiarizing your very insightful words.
Just remember, my friend, when you point a finger at someone else, there are three pointed right back at yourself. 8)

So now I shall directly attribute your quotes to you, and let others decide what they will about the value of your advice and wisdom. No one can say I'm not fair:
I was also admitted into the MERP program, and rejected from the medical school. My stats are identical to yours, I have 3.0 and I received a 24 on the MCAT, including other very impressive research and clinical experience, which I will not get into because I believe that there are many outstanding applicants who are either current students at Ross, rejected for what ever reason, or given the MERP option. Their accomplishments and qualifications easily off set their sub-par numerical statistics, but when you consider that the admissions committee for any given school has to review thousands of applications it becomes easier to understand why so many great applicants fall through the cracks, and why so many others who arguably don’t deserve to be in medical school end up getting in. But as one physician once told me, who served on the admissions committee for Cornell University, “son the system is far from perfect, and as the greatest dilemma known to man implies, life is just not fair". Mind you this is a man who arguably in the eyes of some applicants, held in the balance their professional fate, or at least what they claim to have dedicated their lives to. Nonetheless, the man has a point. Having personally met and worked with some of the Cornell medical students, and some MD/ PhDs, I can tell you that these people are some of the best, not discounting the fact that there are some who can be sized up in a matter of 5 minutes. That is when I would start to wander, what if I actually worked harder and spent less time hanging out as an undergrad, maybe I could be standing in their shoes instead. As Lynn Swann once said about Jackie Harris dropping a sure touch down in super bowl XIX (it may have been XIV) against the Dallas Cowboys, “every once in a while a man gets an opportunity. He may not see it coming or be prepared for it, but the real question is whether he will be able to take advantage of that opportunity when it is presented to him". These may not be correctly his exact words, but if these are not the words of wisdom then I don’t know what is. Therefore the bottom line is that the MERP program is that type of an opportunity. As a student in the MERP program you are given a core curriculum of classes, which is reflective of what you will encounter in medical school or once you start Ross. This program includes Medical Biochemistry and Genetics, and you must maintain at least 80% of your grade or you will not be granted permission to continue on to the medical school. This program is do or die and it costs 22,000 dollars for one semester. That's right, 22,000 dollars, which breaks down into 10,000 for the classes, and approximately 12,000 for living expenses. No question this is money making venture for Ross University, but it is also a no strings attached opportunity. If you complete the program successfully, you are automatically admitted to the medical program. Take it or leave it, St. Matts is likely a viable option, but taking big risks and proving yourself is what life is all about.And
I was offered the option of completing 2nd semester of pre-med at MUA, and if I maintain at least a B average I automatically continue on to the SABA medical school. On the other hand I can start SMU immediately in September. The reasoning behind this decision was that I have been away from school for quite some time, although I have not been removed from academia at all, I am a researcher at a University in NYC. I'm not exactly sure what to do. Can you guys give me some advice? :?

Thanks so much :D
I know you are angry, offended, and took it personally because I was critical of SMU in the aftermath of the deragotory CA report about that school. Yet, as I have said many times, I would gladly go to SMU if Saba were unavailble to me. I am no snob.

But, I suppose I should take it as a compliment that you feel my statements have been so effective that you have no recourse but to attack me personally with arm-chair, pop-culture psychoanalysis. :wink:
Good luck with that strategy.

OK, so what's your point, I realize you have to keep up, since you have Siddman in your cheering section. But it appears that I have been consistent with everything I have said so far. Like I said before, the admissions process is not perfect. It is inconsistent, and it is only as good as the best effort of the committee members.

I never said anything about the admissions process being unfair, but "Faith it seems, is not without a touch of irony" :D . Read on WOLVY, and as you can see the only finger I point is the finger I point at myself. Then I go on to write about the MERP program, which I have decided not to do, but still very consistent with how I have expressed myself here so far. I dont undermine, discredit, or slander any school or program described on valuemd, like some people.

If you feel the report was so derogatory why would you be critical of SMU? What credentials do you posess that would even give you the right of opinion to express negative views on SMU or any other school?

Why are you quoting what I wrote about SABA and SMU, I dont understand. Siddman jumped all over me telling me I was bitter because i was rejected, and if i reapply i might get lucky. But I wasnt rejected, if I complete 2nd semester pre-med with a B, I move on automatically. I have it writing, I can fax you a copy if you want.

Finally, your statements werent effective, they were simply inaccurate. Furthermore, your statement about minorities should not be used as an excuse, and I dont think that I made any personal remarks towards you.

By the way your advocate, supporter, and fan Siddman, agreed with everything I wrote in the post that you partially plagarized. :D

I have many friends. Where are yours?

I dont undermine, discredit, or slander any school or program described on valuemd, like some people.
I am as guilty as the state of CA since I believe their official report on SMU. When and if CA is found guilty of slander or libel against SMU, then I'll change my opinions about that school's problems. It is my contention that it is more prudent to believe what a government agency has to say about a foreign medical school it has inspected, than to merely take the word of a for-profit med school and the word of a few students who are invested in that school. I'm sorry that pisses you off so much.
If you feel the report was so derogatory why would you be critical of SMU? What credentials do you posess that would even give you the right of opinion to express negative views on SMU or any other school?Just because a report (namely, the CA report on SMU) is derogatory does not mean it is false.
I have the same right as any other consumer who is about to drop nearly $200,000 on a medical education. I think that justifies turning a critical eye to important issues, such as USMLE pass rates for first time test takers from a school, licensure eligibility, school facilities, etc. Don't you?

Why are you quoting what I wrote about SABA and SMU, I dont understand. Siddman jumped all over me telling me I was bitter because i was rejected, and if i reapply i might get lucky. But I wasnt rejected, if I complete 2nd semester pre-med with a B, I move on automatically. I have it writing, I can fax you a copy if you want.
Just allowing everyone to admire your credentials, since personal credentials are of such great importance to you.
Congratulations on passing pre-med.

I dont think that I made any personal remarks towards you.
Yes, you did. Here's what you said: But I think that you understand very well that the post you erroneously sited was directed primarily towards you. I always knew that your nauseating, spurious, pseudo-poetic reflection on your web site
Please don't insult the intelligence of everyone on this forum by claiming that is not an insult.

By the way your advocate, supporter, and fan Siddman, agreed with everything I wrote in the post that you partially plagarized. :D
Yes, because it applies to you much better, doesn't it?

Oh, WOLVY, the aristotle quote still isnt fooling anyone
I'm glad my knowledge of philosophy impresses you so much. I know many more great quotes that would equally annoy you, but I'll save 'em for later.
I definitely have nothing to prove here.
Methinks you protest too much, my friend. 8)

(Please stop flooding me with insulting PM's. If you want to cuss me out, please do so publicly so everyone can admire your creative work in vulgarity. It reminds me of finger-painting, only messier.)

Dont play that game WOLVY, you and I exchanged one PM each, you know very well that I didnt cuss you out. Dont make up lies about what I said or how many times I pm you. By the way go look up them quotes, I want to hear some more.

You gotta improve your math skills, buddy. You've sent way more than one, and I've informed the moderators.
Good Day.

WOW, WOLVY, you really have stooped down to another level. Please ask the moderators who you informed to PM me, with copies of PMs I sent you.
