im from cleveland area as well. case JUST changed their requirements for this entering year. thats the main reason i didnt apply. however, im annoyed now because supposedly only around 40 people did apply. it used to be the same requirements as the other schools, C's or higher in all your prereqs. but they just changed it to B's or higher. if you got one C, you MUST retake it or they wont consider you. I had a few from freshman year and it just didn't seem worth it to me to retake them. Otherwise, Case has a fantastic program. By the first month, you're in the OR with an AA, working side by side...and they let you take on a lot of responsibility from the get-go. hope this was helpful.
