Hi, Just wondering if anyone has heard anything regarding acceptance?

One more quick question..did you guys have to take the TEAS and send them ur scores?

[jsweat]

nope. MCG doesn't require you to take that. they didn't for us at least. I don't think anything has changed.

[csage1]

no but they look at your SATs and any community work/volunteering you've done

[SimoneWmson]

I know this sounds really bad but i did HORRIBLE on my SAT in highschool...i got a 400 on the verbal and medical college of ga requires a 450. do you guys think i would still be considered for acceptance? i satisfy all other requirements and have a pretty good gpa over a 3.0...but my only concern is my sat verbal score. Do i absolutely HAVE to have a 450 to even apply???

[csage1]

umm.. well i would try to do better. my SATs were not too good either

( 510 and 490 ) but my gpa was 3.7 and i had alot of community service done.

Do you remember how many community hours you did back then as well as your math/science GPA average?

[Tinker1]

I had about 40 community service hours and my GPA was 3.74. I also had about 40 clinical hours in the medical field from a CNA program, but never actually got certified. Hope this helps! And good luck:)

I honestly have no idea how they accept people. My GPA was a 3.6 I think and SAT was an 1130 and I had no community service as far as a hospital. They might have looked at my volunteering with a rape crisis service and the fact that I had a Masters. The kooky thing is they waitlisted the TA in my anatomy class and accepted me. At some point, I think they put names in a hat.
