Hey all,
I was planning on doing an SMP and just wondering what is the usual/preferred timing that people do these programs. I just graduated in May 2014 and will be applying next cycle (2015) because I'm spending the summer (and possibly early fall) preparing and studying for the MCAT. I was planning on doing an SMP AFTER I applied to Med schools next cycle, is this ok or would it be considered too late and have no effect on improving my application?
I read that people get accepted into Med school while enrolled into these programs but would it be more beneficial to try to squeeze in my application and go this coming year before I apply??
Thanks so much!
