Hey everyone,
I'm making my final decisions on which college I am going to attend next year, and as of right now it looks like I'm going to go to Northeastern, despite its cost. The reason is because of a program that gives early admission to Tufts Medical School. After reading about it, all I would need is a 3.5 gpa my middler (5 year program) year to be eligible, and from the looks of it, no MCAT would be needed. However, they worded it strangley; this is what it said:
(Please note: Beginning in the fall of 2010, students entering into the Medical School via the Early Assurance program will not be required to sit for the MCAT examination prior to matriculation.)
So, does that mean that I wouldn't need to take the MCAT at ALL, or that I just wouldn't need to take it until after I matriculated (which would be sort of weird?)
Thanks
