Are there any cadets out there that are in med school or will be going to med school that would be willing to answer a few questions?
Does the individual or the Air Force choose the residency specialization? Where are the common work places for a doctor?
What does your class rank need to be in the range of to get the opportunity of med school? How hard is it to get the opportunity to go to med school post USAFA? Does the individual or the Air Force choose the residency specialization? Where are the common work places for a doctor?
Thanks for the great info! What is the most common major students take for this track? Is chemistry an option? And one more, does the academy take the mcats into account for who gets med school slots or not?
If you don't mind me asking, what was your gpa? What the gpa range needed for the prestigious med programs?
The absolute minimum is 3.0 to receive USAFA approval - but that usually also requires some sort of additional requirement such as a high MCAT. 3.25 is the minimum to get approval without caveats.
My GPA during the application process was a 3.8.
Was also told that USAFA adds 0.2 to the GPA when submitting your information to the medical schools. Don't know if that's true or not.
