What do you like most?

"No MCAT required." | Report Response

"I love the flexibility to set up rotations with chosen doctors who I feel would benefit my education most. Unlike other schools who insist on assigning you to a particular physician, WUHS gives you the freedom to choose doctors/hospitals/practices outside of their large network of attendings. If you navigate this correctly, it gives you the opportunity to do your rotations with some of the best physicians and departments in the country!" | Report Response

What do you like least?

"They claim they changed financial policies but didn't tell the students. Those on a payment plan are stuck for years after completing requirements and still paying tuition with no degree. They hold the degree until the loans are completely paid off. They won't submit paperwork to ECFMG either." | Report Response

"I dislike dealing with the financial aspect, I understand why it is organized the way it is, but I would prefer if it was more organized and had a centralized payment portal for all students." | Report Response

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.
