I need your help
Hi, I am from NY. I recieved my Associate Degree in Biology with GPA of 3.3. I have done all of my sciences. I am recieving my B.A. Degree in Psychology at this semester, May 2008. The current GPA is 3.0 and its going up due to good grades I am recieving so far. I took MCAT twice already but I did poorly. Got 11 and then 12. I have volunteered a total of 380 hours in the hospital at different depatments.
Is there chance that I will get in the MD1 for Setember 2008?
If so, what is the deadline for September 2008?
Also, I will be able to work in NY?

I would suggest you apply early because spots tend to fill up fast. Overall I think you are a competitive applicant.

However, since you have poor MCAT scores, I think during medical school you should work on your test-taking skills and improve on your deficiencies by zoning in on your weaknesses. Your GPA reflects that you understand material well, but your MCAT portrays your inabiliity to apply that material. If you work on that, you will be able to succeed not only in medical school, but on future USMLE and other board exams as well.

Hope this helps.

there's a parking lot in the new campus. bring a lock so you can lock your bike to a tree or pole or whatever

Start date!?
I just got an email from the US office, saying classes start on the 15th and orientation is on the 19th? And, why does it say orientation is after classes start?

Anyone else hear this?

Quoted out of e-mail:
Quote:
Classes start September 15, 2008 orientation is September 19, 2008 last day of classes for the break is December 23, 2008 you may arrive any time 1 week before classes begin.

All I was told, is that loans will be available for Sept semester, and that they signed with someone, but I have to wait until they will start processing loans..
