bearded frog Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 Here's the histograms for matriculated applicants to the class of 2024. Hopefully they will publish Casper quartiles in the future but we don't have that data. Note that they interview 500 of 3000 applicants and offer around 250-300 and 205 matriculate. I think we can say this data is probably similar to all those who get offered, but obviously better than the average applicant. I would say probably not very much higher than the average interviewee, as the interview performance really is most of the criteria for getting accepted after interviews, but probably slighly skewed up. If your stats are in the top half of 2/3 metrics (ie 3.9+ gpa, 129+ cars, 2nd quartlie casper), or one very high to balance out one very low, then probably reasonable chance for an IP interview. Percentages are cumulative (ie 35% have a 3.89 or lower GPA).

There was ~3000 when I applied way back when. The last published data from the 2017/2018 cycle had 4,917 applicants. They have not reported in AFMC reports since then.

bearded frog Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 Also, apparently 4th quartile is the best casper? I incorrectly assumed 1st quartile would be highest, so disregard any casper related advice I've given based on quartliles up to now lol poorpremed and Magicath 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDMD2021 Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 Got an Interview last year so the only changes are: the applicant pool, maybe casper?, and GPA (+.02 from 3.82) Mostly worried because casper didn't give scores last year so maybe I was 4th quartile and 3rd isnt enough to get me an interview... thoughts? GPA: 3.84 Cars: 132 Casper: 3rd quartile Geo: IP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might depend on where in 4th quartile. Look at the interview acceptance thread and you can see people with similar stats both getting invites and rejections.
