quote:There are anecdotes of student athletes who do succeed. Christine Simatacolos, the associate athletics director for student life at the University of Louisville in Kentucky, talks of a student whose low scores fell below the college literacy threshold but who graduated from Louisiana State University and is now in medical school. I don't believe anyone can graduate from high school reading at a 4th grade level, matriculate at LSU while being a varsity athlete and then get into a legitimate medical school based upon your academic abilities. The medical school should be investigated.
yeah there is no way someone with a 4th grade reading level could do well on the mcat. it could be one of those carribean or mexican schools that don't require the mcat.
