But i guess Ill be happy if i get in period. I sent in my documents 2 days ago im pretty sure they havent even gotten it but Just out of curiousity how long did it take for them to review the app and respond? with an interview or any other type of acceptance?
Sent app end of January, interview exactly in 15 days (2nd week - Feb) and conditional acceptance in hand exactly in 1 week from then.
If you have visited the Mua SGA (Student govenment website)..i think its www.muasga.com
You can download the current books being used by ISBN# and buy them and maybe start reviewing them. Thats what I plan to do after i am done my courses. Refresh my self in chem and other subjects. And remember Stay positive!!!

Premed

Hey Shiekh

I applied to Pre-med for September and since you have completed it and are now in Med, I just want to know how Pre-med was like for you. Was it really difficult, were you studying 24/7? I'm just curious. Actually, I have my interview tommorrow, just feeling a little nervous. Hopefully, everything will go fine. Take care and good luck in Med.

Howdy,

I am preparing my application this weekend for PRE-MED Sept. 06: I have some questions and I will appreciate if some one can answer.

STATS: I have a 2 year degree in general science discipline with a GPA of 3.2This degree has total of 60 credit hours. I had straight A’s in all of my chemistry, Physics and Math courses. After getting this degree I have also finished another 42 credit hours of GENERAL CORE requirements towards a 4 ** degree which is required here in Texas. So the total credit hours I have are 102.

Following is the course by course details of the pre med courses that I had in my degree:

Chemistry (organic I&II:Inorganic I&II) 16 credit hours
Physics: 12 credit hours
Math: 12 credit hours
ENG: 12 credit hours

Don’t have one year of BIO.

QUESTION: from this thread I know some of the students got accepted directly into PRE-MED II instead of PRE-MED I. Based on my stats do I need to apply to PRE-MED I and then admissions committee will move me up into PRE-MED II ........or I explicitly need to check Pre-Med II.

Thank ya all in advance !!

just got accepted for premed I Sept. 2006

I am a 24 yo female. I am a Registered nurse. I got accepted for premed I. Someone from the program told me that they were just trying to get $ out of me and I need to ask about premed II instead. I'm confused on what to do. I am excited to get the oppurtunity to go to med school. I just need to know if it's worth dealing with the issue or not. I do not have Organic Chem. I was wondering if that had something to do with it. I am also looking for a
roomate. I would prefer to choose my roomate through this site instead of letting them choose one for me.

The problem is really your missing Organic 1, if you had at least one semester of organic or mayb even biochemistry i'm sure they will put you into premed 2. Did you fillfull the other prereqs like 1 year of inorganic and bio?

I have one semester of biochemistry. I also have one year of biology, and general chemistry with the labs. My grades aren't great, but I did earn a degree and have been working in the field for a year and a half. I think because of my grades, they feel I need to prove myself in premed I & II. Just don't want the money spent for no good reason besides the fact that they want more money from me. I am confused to how they pick which category you fall in.

If its been a while since you attended school, it may actually be worth starting from premed1 as it'll be a nice refresher and as sheikh1 mentioned above that premed 2 is harder, it might be better to flow in to premed2 as you'll be settled in the island...Just my thought
