MedicalSchoolsInUSA releases comprehensive list of Medical School Rankings to aid in the upcoming research and application process for potential students.

Scottsdale, AZ (PRWEB) February 21, 2013

To aid in their tireless search, MedicalSchoolsInUSA.com, a leading website for medical school guides, tips and information, has launched its latest list of American medical school rankings for the upcoming academic application wave.

The rankings are based on a unique combination of peer assessments, research scores, total amounts of NIH funds granted to the program and affiliate hospitals, as well as 2012 NIH research grants per faculty member.

According to the "Princeton Review," the majority of medical school applicants will be sending in their completed application packets sometime this fall.

And with deadlines quickly approaching, assessing where your dream school stands in terms of acceptance rate, tuition and credibility is key.

"Reviewing medical school rankings is arguably one of the most pivotal points to narrowing your program choices down," explained Ben Davidson, a spokesperson for MedicalSchoolsInUSA.com. "Every applicant has a unique set of strengths and preferences. Honing in on these individual traits will be key in choosing the perfect program."

According to Davidson, however, personal strengths and preferences can often be overlooked in the application process.

"You tend to find a lot of medical school applicants with a 3.2 GPA and 30 MCAT applying to Harvard Medical and Mayo Medical -- and that's it," he explained. "There are a plethora of perfectly good medical schools out there that will fit individual backgrounds and academic profiles."

MedicalSchoolsInUSA's list of school rankings provides potential applicants with a wide range of information per program, including 2012-2013 admissions statistics, 2012-2013 average MCAT scores, GPA and coursework requirements, common undergraduate majors, as well as the kinds of tuition and financial aid available for students.
