About AdmitBase
We help applicants understand their real admission chances at professional schools — backed by official institutional data, not guesswork.
Who writes the guides
Every article on AdmitBase is written and reviewed by the AdmitBase Editorial Team — a small group of admissions analysts who specialise in law, medical, dental, MBA, pharmacy, veterinary, and optometry school admissions. We write from the perspective of people who have actually read the disclosures, parsed the data, and watched the application cycle change year over year.
Our voice is direct, occasionally blunt, and grounded in evidence. We do not chase rankings hype or trend cycles. We tell applicants what the numbers actually say about their odds.
How we source data
Every match score, percentile, and acceptance rate on AdmitBase comes from a primary institutional source — not self-reported applicant data, not aggregated forum posts.
- Law: ABA 509 Disclosure Reports (annual, every ABA-accredited US law school)
- Medical: AAMC FACTS and MSAR; Canadian schools from per-institution admissions reports + AFMC CMES
- Dental: ADEA Official Guide + ADEA Survey of U.S. Dental School Applicants and Enrollees
- MBA: Published class profiles from each AACSB-accredited program
- Pharmacy: AACP Pharmacy School Admission Requirements (PSAR)
- Veterinary: AAVMC institutional data
- Optometry: ASCO institutional data
We publish our full match algorithm and statistical methodology on the methodology page.
Why we built AdmitBase
Admissions transparency is uneven. Some schools publish detailed disclosures; others bury the numbers. Applicants spend hours stitching together stats from a dozen sources, then make six-figure decisions based on incomplete information.
AdmitBase pulls all of that into one place, runs a percentile-based match against your numbers, and shows you exactly where you stand at every school. No rankings spin. No motivational fluff. Just the data, structured to help you decide.
Editorial standards
We update articles when new disclosure data drops (typically annually) and when application cycles materially change. Every article carries a publication date and a last-updated date. If you find an error or have a question about methodology, write to support@admitbase.com — we take corrections seriously.
