Not a bad job

I had inhibitions about buying this book due to the other reviews, but I've found it extremely helpful. There are plenty of stats regarding the MCATs, GPA and enrollment. Although the descriptions of the curriculae aren't as in depth as I had hoped, it's more than enough to form some initial opinions about the various schools.
