[Mla-cds] Medical School Admission Requirements (AAMC)

[Mark Funk]

Another directory, another case of information stripped out and placed  
exclusively on the net.

The latest edition of MSAR has taken many elements that used to be in  
the printed book, and placed them behind a username/password wall.  
While online access comes with the book, it is for individuals only.  
We just discovered this when some researchers were looking for MCAT  
scores and GPAs of admitted students, only to find they weren't in the  
book. Like most of you, we have this on standing order, and I never  
saw it when the new edition arrived.

This pdf explains what's online and what's in the book: https://www.aamc.org/students/download/181264/data/comparison_chart.pdf

AAMC is not exhibiting at the MLA annual meeting, so no chance of  
yelling at them...
