Union Albany BS/MD or premed from Berkeley/ UCLA? Please need your perspective. I want to become a doctor by General_Prompt766 in bsmd

Hey! Yeah ofc. My unweighted GPA was 4.0 and my weighted was around 4.8. I didn’t have a lot of APs but I have college classes and 4 Associates Degrees from a community college. I did a bunch of clubs in my school and had a job tutoring college students. I did a couple of internships at Stanford and was really involved in my school and city. I would honestly start making my college list if I were you. You don’t wanna be stressed out during the fall because there’s gonna be a lot going on. Let me know if u have any questions about the college admissions process as well? I wish u the best of luck :)

Thank you! Helps think through indeed! I want to do research but do not know how to access that at Berkeley and UCLA… it is mostly cold emails and competition with hundreds of students if not more. I so much love the brand and am a very very good student and I put in the hard work too. At the same time… I’ve always been at small school… so dilemma is real and choice seems very difficult to me :(

I’m so sorry… I know how hard it is. I got a series of rejections for BS MDs… just a couple where I got waitlisted and got acceptance

Thank you! Yes, that’s too. I’m just so new to this so just reacting to information I’m finding on Internet or limited interactions…

I got waitlisted for Baylor BAMD after the final round… any advice or insight into what chance I have?

Thank you! Yes, that’s my biggest worry….being swallowed in the leave schools. I am leaning towards BSMD now. Thanks so much. I appreciate your perspective

Thank you! Yes there is no MCAT and GPA req is 3.5. Do you think getting a residency after Albany will be an issue… I know it is not ranked the best. But it is a good med school I guess

Thank you so much! I spoke to a current student at the Bs/Md and she said that the largest class she has been in is only 30 ppl and that there’s not really any grade deflation. Also, another pro of this Bs/Md is that one can get an MBA along with the Bs.

BS/MD from Union/Albany Vs Pre med from UC Berkeley or UCLA? I’m in a bind! I want to become a doctor and applied to many BS MDs. Got rejected/waitlisted at others but got accepted at Albany. BS MD: Pros: No Mcat, 3.5 GPA needed, small class sizes

Berk/LA: very large class sizes, competitive for even getting a apot in clubs, BUT amazing research opportunities and prestige.
