[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is from UMD website, nearly 400 were admitted to Med schools in 2023. Not sure if UVA publishes similar information.

It isn't unique individuals accepted or applying ,so not sure it is useful.[/quote]

Elsewhere they state that in 2021, 66% of all UMD applicants got into an allopathic medical school 
80% of competitive UMD applicants got into an allopathic medical school. 
They define competitive as a student with a science GPA = or &gt; 3.6 and a mcat score = or above 511
The national average is 42%[/quote]

Link?

What is interesting is UMD's acceptance rate of 66%, if correct, is higher than UCLA's of 53% ccording to the link below.   However, UCLA appears to have well over 2X as many applying, so it is getting mor students accepted, but with a lower acceptance rate.  I would suggest investigating if it is difficult to get a recommendation at UMD (or something else).  If not, the rate is pretty good.
