[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, not going to JMU for free, just at in-state tuition rates. Oh yes, definitely a lot of red flags with the neighbor kid. I too have serious doubts about this kid, for a lot of reasons. I am not that enthusiastic about JMU. However, I don't discount it as a "degree mill." It's what is available to NOVA folks since UVA/VT/W&M is becoming less available to us. [b]BTW, JMU said that they had 12 graduates entering MD programs in 2016 (which is what I could find via Google): [/b] So it's not 5 kids per year. And during the 2002-2012 period, JMU grads went to the likes of Yale, UVA, Tufts, BU, UCLA, Georgetown, GWU. Some other schools that aren't name brand. But they are still medical schools. [/quote] 5 to 12 is about what I'd assume. That's out of 22,000 undergraduates. And how many of the 5 to 12 are URMs and first generation college students, i.e. highly hooked medical school applicants. Probably all of them.[/quote]
