[quote=Anonymous]42% of US applicants to US MD programs get accepted to at least one school. That is hardly “so difficult”. T10 med is difficult. Any MD program in the USA is not. If the MCAT takes multiple times to get over 508 you are not cut out for it. If you cannot get a science GPA of 3.6+ you are not likely cut out for it. Those two factors together plus clinical hours and research make you an average applicant with roughly 40% chance of acceptance. Get the numbers up to 512 and 3.8 and do the rest and the chances rise to 60%. [/quote]
