For students who complete your camp, what is the admission rate to medical school (US MD, specifically)?

  • For the PS, cover Why MD? What skills/ECs will make you a successful physician? Proofread.

The first Apprentice DoctorŇ Camp was in 2010 - so much too early to be able to offer that type of stats. We should be able to start giving out those stats in 4-5 year time - thank you for your question.

My brother is a high school senior and is interested in a medical career. He may be interested in the camp.
Does the camp provide exposure to actual hospital or medical practices?
