johndoe88 Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 I saw this from the time I started applying but now am really wondering what it is. I get that if you are rural u may be assessed a score that helps your overall score. But what is the academic co-efficient? What does that take into account because gpa and mcat are already factored in. o and does anyone know how the rural co-efficient is scored? Thanks! Good luck to all!

fuzzy_lizards Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 From this year's Applicant Information Bulletin: "The Admissions Committee evaluates advance academic attributes in the following three (3) domains: • Ph.D. • peer-reviewed publications • academic appointments" Not sure how exactly they obtain your coefficient but they are multiplied by your sub-totalled score: (15%AGPA + 40%MCAT + 45%MMI) X (rurality co-efficient if >0) X (academic co- efficient if >0) The added value from each of your academic and rural coefficients can't exceed 13% of the overall score. Hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
