According to Harvard’s website, Harvard Medical School had 6,614 applicants and admitted 231 for an admittance rate of 3.5%. According to a thread on College Confidential, University of Michigan auditioned 850 students and admitted 22 for an admittance rate of 2.5%. Carnegie Mellon which is rumored to audition around 1,000 students, admitted 12 for a 1.2% admittance rate. I of course know the odds are daunting, but worse than Harvard Medical School??? Well that’s news to me. Now go practice, that’s the only way you are going to make sure you are in the 2.5%!
