Yeah I'm not sure I guess..! But if you are taking prereqs and getting those grades, that's a good thing! Do you have volunteer experience or are certified as a nursing assistant?

What is your GPA? I know they look at overall GPA and your prerequisite GPA and also volunteer/work experience. I think they look for diverse applicants or those who have experience working with diverse communities who possess leadership qualities. I...

Wondering if I can bring this thread back by asking those of you who were accepted to the U of M program (especially the Rochester campus) what your GPA, experience, etc. was when you applied? :)
