What Are My Chances? - WV Resident

[chelseafan132]

Hello everyone,

I am a WV resident with the following stats:

MCAT 511
GPA 3.99
sGPA 3.98

I have a very good chance of getting in to WVU, as almost 30% of in-state applicants are accepted. What do you think about my chances elsewhere?

UMass, UConn, UC Irvine, LSU, UNC, Utah strongly favor their own residents or those with connections to the state. You should add Marshall to your list.

Ok

 

[Faha]

You could try UConn but a sibling living is a state is not a connection for the purpose of medical school admissions.

Got it

 

[Faha]

Yes, you could try UMass.
