Hi, You have a great website, answered lots of my questions, except for the following one. I will explain my situation first and then the question. I am going to be a high school junior for the '05-'06 and am taking the Post Secondary Enrollment Opportunity (PSEO). PSEO is a program that lets high school juniors and seniors take college classes either full time or part time at a college. So i am going to be taking PSEO for my junior and senior. I will graduate high school at the age of 17 and will graduate college at the age of 19. I will graduate college this early because i hopefully will have enough credits. I hope to start med school at the age 19 right after college. So the question now, DO YOU THINK THAT I WILL STAND A CHANCE TO GET INTO MEDICAL SCHOOL OR WILL I BE TOO YOUNG AND BE REJECTED? i will have all the med school requirements done and everything when i apply. So, do you think they will let me in or reject me for my age, even if i get good grades, scores, have good reference letters, and have extra-curricular activities. I love your website, i will be really glad and thankful if you answer this question. Raul
