We want to assure you that our decision was made after careful evaluation and with full appreciation of the many fine features presented in your application. Unfortunately, we can select only a small percentage of the approximate 8150 applicants who have applied.

Summary of Experience:
The Committee on Admissions has carefully reviewed your application to the first year class entering Weill Cornell Medical College. We regret to notify you that, due to the very keen competition for a limited number of places in the class, we are unable to offer you a position in our first year class entering in August 2015.
As you are well aware, all medical schools receive applications from far more individuals than can possibly be accepted. Last year, some sixty-three hundred candidates applied for the one hundred and one positions available in our entering class; thus, less than two percent of all applicants could enroll.
Thank you for your interest in Weill Cornell Medical College. We wish you every success in the pursuit of your future medical career.
Summary of Experience:
Students seem interesting and driven. The school has a storied and prestigious past, which is nice to be a part of. On the other hand, I'm not sure how much the success of the students is due to their own hard work and ambition vs. the school actually helping/teaching very much.
Summary of Experience:
Amazing experience. Facilities are lovely, students are brilliant and nice, loved the vibe. World-class. What's not to like about UCSF.
Summary of Experience:
Definitely one of my favorite schools. If I didn't get into "better" schools, I would have loved to go here. Curriculum very well thought out and admin/faculty/student body extremely supportive.
Summary of Experience:
Really down to earth school as many others have reported. New curriculum implemented as of 2013 that the students seem to like. Really tight-knit student body. Students get assigned study spaces that are pretty great and foster a sense of community. One interviewer for an hour who has a form to fill out. No nonsense and low stress, just wanted to get to know you. School isn't super pretty and doesn't seem to have a lot of money, but it does have a lot of heart and a LOT of patients. Med students get to do a lot.
Summary of Experience:
Really solid all around, but nothing particularly memorable for me about this school. Even my interview called the medical education "solid" - which to me meant middle-of-the-road. Ok research, ok facilities, ok student body, just ... ok.
Summary of Experience:
Beautiful school! PBL learning seems awesome and done right because the school is so small. Everyone is super earnest and kind and the aloha spirit is alive and well. But it's also very local and I wasn't sure I wanted that little diversity during my studies. The class is very small - 66 students.
Summary of Experience:
Bellevue is supposed to be an amazing place to train, but I just didn't like this school. On a positive note, money seems to be flowing into the school, there is a lot of momentum and it's on the rise. It just felt very "business/finance" to me and not as academic. The school fell short of "dream school" status for me.
