[quote=Anonymous]My child applied for med school for entrance in fall 2019. I was shocked to learn that the average number of med school apps is 16. On med school forums people who want to know what their chances of getting in are describe their demographic in one of three ways: URM, white, or ORM (over represented minority, essentially Asian, includes those of Iranian origin). It is not uncommon for people to apply to 25 or 30 schools. While there is a common primary app, the vast majority of schools then ask for a secondary app that is not standardized. I read one post on a med school forum from an Asian who said he and his friend, also Asian, each applied to 50 schools.[/quote]
