What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

"Longer interview time, even the interviewers seemed rushed between applicants" More from this Member | Report Response

"It would be really nice if there was some way to automate the application system. I know certain schools have an online component so you can see the status and progress of your application. For example, it shows you whether all your supplemental documents (such as GRE results), have been received. That would be a nice touch to implement so all the applicants are constantly bombarding the admissions office with emails to check on the status of their application."

About the LizzyM Score

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.
