"I love that this school is new and that there are so many opportunities to get involved. Our professors are some of the most selfless individuals I have ever met. They will do anything and everything in their power to make sure you succeed. They all have an open door policy, which I have used multiple times over the past year. I feel like I will be an amazing clinician when I graduate in 2018. The community in Greenville LOVES the school and our patient base is huge!"
"Since it is new, the three classes before ours had some hiccups and bumps in the road, but everything for my class has been very smooth."
LizzyM, SDN Moderator and medical school admissions committee member, is the inventor of the LizzyM Score. The score allows you to see if you are a competitive applicant at a given school. If your LizzyM Score is far below or above the average, you may not be a good fit. If your score is far below, your application may be screened out due to numerical cutoffs. If it is far above, the school may assume they are your “safety” school and that you won’t attend if they offer an acceptance. This score should be used only as a guide to help you select schools and is not a guarantee of acceptance at any school. If you use this as your sole criteria to select medical schools to apply to, you don’t deserve to get in anyway.
SDN Ranking identifies how SDN members perceive the quality of a school relative to other schools of the same type (e.g., other Medical Schools, other Dental schools, etc.). Schools are ranked from 1, perceived as much worse than other schools, to 5, perceived as much better than other schools.
