Hi everyone! I was recently accepted to UKCOM's Master of Science in Medical Sciences program, so I'm wondering if anyone had thoughts on it. What's the program like? Anyone graduated and found success applying to MD schools? There doesn't appear to be a guaranteed interview with their med...

Now depending on my...
