School Info

Vanderbilt University School of Medicine (VUSM) seeks to matriculate a diverse group of academically exceptional students whose attributes and accomplishments suggest that they will be future leaders and/or scholars in medicine. To accomplish this goal, VUSM provides a review of each candidate by multiple members of the faculty who are broadly representative of the faculty body. The committee uses a holistic approach to evaluate an array of applicant attributes, including academic excellence, personal characteristics, accomplishments in research, leadership, service to others, contribution to diversity (gender, race, ethnicity, sexual preference, socio-economic background, geographic origin), and participation in extracurricular activities.

Curriculum

The curriculum is divided into required courses taken by all students and elective courses taken at the choice of the individual student. Required courses constitute the nucleus of medical education at Vanderbilt; elective courses are an integral part of each student`s educational experience in the School of Medicine, providing considerable flexibility for individual programming. Students develop an elective program to meet individual needs with the help of the faculty and the approval of the Associate Dean for Medical Students or a designee.

Facilities

Rudolph A. Light Hall, completed in 1977, is a sophisticated facility providing much-needed space for medical education and other student activities. The seven-story structure contains 209,000 square feet of space housing the latest in laboratory equipment, audio-visual and electronic teaching tools, and multi-purpose classroom space. The second floor student lounge is designed to foster medical student interaction and to permit informal educational experiences - leading to the development of physicians grounded in the sciences but enlightened by humanitarian interests and understanding. Light Hall is the physical manifestation of Vanderbilt University Medical School`s ongoing commitment to excellence in all areas of medical education. The Medical Research Building, completed in 1989, provides laboratories and academic space for pharmacology, biochemistry, and molecular physiology and biophysics. The eight-story building also houses the A. B. Hancock Jr. Memorial Laboratory for Cancer Research and the positron emission tomography (PET) scanner.

About the LizzyM Score

LizzyM, SDN Moderator and medical school admissions committee member, is the inventor of the LizzyM Score. The score allows you to see if you are a competitive applicant at a given school. If your LizzyM Score is far below or above the average, you may not be a good fit. If your score is far below, your application may be screened out due to numerical cutoffs. If it is far above, the school may assume they are your “safety” school and that you won’t attend if they offer an acceptance. This score should be used only as a guide to help you select schools and is not a guarantee of acceptance at any school. If you use this as your sole criteria to select medical schools to apply to, you don’t deserve to get in anyway.
