Easy to get intoApr 11 2019PreMed and Medical
Easy to get into. Did not write the supplemental essay and still got in with a decent scholarship. Still fairly expensive especially for an instate student. Bare minimum is required to get into this school and it shows.

It's very easy to get inNov 17 2015Biology
It's very easy to get in. You need to write an essay, but judging from the essays I saw in the 101 Lit class, it doesn't need to be good. Get some words on a paper, try to be coherent, and you're all set. MCPHS is not good at separating the wheat from the chaff.

Part of the common application that you fill outMay 17 2011Pharmacy
Part of the common application that you fill out online for MCPHS is the essay. I tried to steer away from generic topics. I wrote about something that I actually believed in, not something I thought admissions people would want to hear. I wrote my essay twice. I asked my high school English teacher to read it and offer any criticism. The key reasons why I chose her to be the person to read my essay were that she was an English teacher, she knew me and my writing style well, and she was also one of two teachers who wrote me a college recommendation letter. I strongly suggest getting a second person to read your college essay, preferably someone who fits the same criteria that I just mentioned for my own choice.
