    Im just wondering are my chances to get into med school cut severely due to the fact that my HS GPA isnt that high and my SAT scores are only 1210? I never really bothered trying in hs because i always figured i would go into the art field, but pressure and job security make me want to goto the medical field. I never really tried much and i never did study for my SAT’s. Im just wondering with such a low SAT score, are my chances severely cut or can they be outshadowed with A’s in College chem, physics, bio, etc ?

    Your SATs and HS academic record never really come into play on the AMCAS application. In fact, most AdComs only wonder where you went to high school. It doesn’t really matter.

    Just do well in college and you’ll have a good shot at getting in to medical school.
