How is the medical school at the University of Hawaii ?

Question

I'm starting to look at colleges, and I'm wondering how the medical school at the University of Hawaii is. I'm from NY, but I have a friend who lives in Hawaii, so it shouldn't be too hard of a move. I doubt many people will e able to answer this question, but how is it compared to Stony Brook University, which is like 15 miles away from me. Thanks

Answer 1

Good luck getting an interview, they only give 50 or so to out of states, and there's only about 12 spots. Costs 70k a year for non residents, Median MCAT score is a 32Q ("average") No PhD program, 3.8GPA average, 3.7 for science.

Stony brook, 500 interviews for residents (25%) 100 spots. 43k a year for residents. Same MCAT score as Hawaii, GPA is 3.7 for science and overall. PhD Program and MD/BS MD/MPH

Both focus a lot on internal medicine, but Honolulu also works a lot towards family practice, where as Stony goes towards pediatrics.
