2.0 out of 5 stars Inaccurate information with no editorial control, December 2, 2007

As a medical school applicant I thought this book could help me get my bearings and select schools to apply. First, the statistics are inaccurate and not well edited. Class size statistics between out of state and in state, for example, don't add up.

The information about each school sounds like marketing directly from the school. It's almost impossible to differentiate between the schools by reading about their curriculum in this book. The schools websites are far more informative. Also, the MSAR book published by the AAMC has much more detailed statistics that seem more accurate.

For the NonTrad out there looking for answers to that question that has loomed over their head for so long this book has the answer. It provides examples of other nontrads who have made the decision and succeeded.
