With Braluk's permission I've dug through some lists and websites to get a current list of SMPs. Did you know there are more than 25 SMPs now? Personally I define "SMP" as any program that is specifically aimed at improving the credentials of med school applicants who have already completed the prereqs and taken the MCAT.
My intention with this thread is to keep the first set of descriptive posts up-to-date, based on posts that are added with folks' comments and corrections.
Here are some lists of SMPs that have an air of official-ness about them. All three are out of date.
AAMC searchable postbac list
The much-linked Syracuse list
U of Cincinnati comparison chart
Here is an alleged up-to-date SMP list, with links to each program's website. I'll add links to sub-posts about each program, stay tuned.
