The formula to calculate the LizzyM Score is:
\[ \text{LizzyM Score} = (\text{GPA} \times 10) + \text{MCAT} \]
Where:
The LizzyM Score is a metric used by prospective medical school applicants to evaluate their chances of admission. It is calculated by combining the applicant's Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) score and undergraduate grade point average (GPA). Specifically, the formula is: LizzyM Score = (GPA x 10) + MCAT. This score is then compared against the average LizzyM Scores of matriculants to various medical schools to gauge competitiveness. The score is named after a user, LizzyM, on the Student Doctor Network forums, who proposed this method of assessing an applicant's academic standing relative to current medical students. It is important to note that while the LizzyM Score can be a useful tool, medical school admissions are multifaceted and consider a wide range of factors beyond GPA and MCAT scores.
Let's assume the following:
Step 1: Calculate the LizzyM Score:
\[ \text{LizzyM Score} = (3.8 \times 10) + 510 = 38 + 510 = 548 \]
Therefore, the LizzyM Score is 548.
