Admission Test For Med School The Psychological Corpora¬ tion has announced that the Medical College Admission Test for student admission to medical colleges will be ad¬ ministered on Saturday, Octo- ber 29, 1960. Mr. Thomas Whalen, moderator of the Biology Club, terms this test of great importance to those who have not taken it previously since most of the medical colleges strongly recommend it, if they do not require it. A majority of medical admis¬ sions committee members say they attach at least some importance to the scores in evaluating intellectual characteristics. The test is designed to measure general academic ability, understanding of modern society, and scientific knowledge. Apphcations may be obtained from Mr. Whalen, and must be returned to him by October 15.
