I ask this because apparently Medical Schools prefer Uni students over College students from what my graduate friends tell me.
I'll give a scenario, There's two applicants for Hofstra Medical. One attends Hofstra College and the other attends NYU. Hosftra applicant has a GPA of 3.7 and did really well on his MCAT, and the NYU applicant has a GPA of 3.5 but did slightly better on the MCAT than the Hosftra applicant.
Now I know I didn't give a scenario of the same GPA with similiar MCAT scores but do medical schools really favor Uni students and do they care more about GPA or MCAT? (I know, both is a factor)
Thanks in advance!
