tenngal Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 MUSC is my #1 choice and I'd love to see your stats if you are student now or if you've been accepted. I'm wondering how my stats compare (I don't really think I have a chance!) I'm sure it's highly competitive to even get an interview! I'd really like to know your Cummulative GPA Science GPA GRE Prior med experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potential_pa Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 MUSC is also my first choice -- these are my stats -- think I have a chance? GPA 3.55 Sci GPA 3.2 GRE 1320 Med experience: 5 years pharma rep, 3 years AE for lab, direct patient care about 500 hours in clinical research and volunteer projects in India and Africa Master's Degree in Public Health Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annabug Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 You have a better chance than I do! Our GPA's are very similar: GPA 3.57 Science 3.00 GRE 1260 I will have around 700 hours as a nurses assitant for a PA and a Pharm Tech. Are you a SC resident?

Guest steppjm Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Hi, I'm from SC and MUSC is my #1 pick too. I don't think I have a great chance of getting in this year, unless I do really well on the GRE--which I'm taking in June. I'll be a senior at USC in the fall, and here are my stats: GPA 3.65 Science 3.2 and I'm starting to volunteer @ the hospital and shadow a PA in the next couple of weeks...for the rest of the summer/school year Any advice??? I'm applying this summer/fall anyways, just to at least get my 'foot in the door' even if I don't get in anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potential_pa Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 annabug: I am not a south carolina resident -- i am from RI but it sounds like that's not a big problem there. i am applying in their first cycle but that still puts a potential interview in late november -- months after others programs -- which is annoying. steppjm: i don't know why you don't think you have a chance -- your grades are good and they are really focused on that. definitely get the hours together and you would be a good applicant. good luck everyone!

Rapport Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 From reading MUSC's website they do seem to favor applicants that have lived and worked in SC, however, I don't know if that is how it works in real life. Also, they only look at the prerequisite GPA, which is not simply "cumulative" and "science". The prereqs are here Prerequisites I believe my prereq GPA is around 3.25. I take the GRE next month and I am shooting for around a 1200, which I think I can get based off of the practice tests I have done. I have been working for 6 months as an EMT-b, although I do medical transport, not 911. I am planning on doing a medical missions/relief work trip in a Spanish speaking country, and possibly taking a "Spanish for medical students" course offered at USC. I am trying to make myself into a good candidate, I know my GPA is not exceptional, but how good of a chance do you think I have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
