I am debating whether I need to enroll in my future school's prematriculation program. The program is designed for students who are: (1) underrepresented minorities, (2) ESL, (3) Nontrad, and (4) economically disadvantaged. I am an ESL and am a nontrad as well. I got into three allo schools after taking MCAT four times due to verbal section and getting my green card. In all honesty, I am so fortunate to get into medical schools and am very thankful for the opportunity.

Below links are the program description and the thread I posted on "what are my chances."

Getting a step up on your classmates, getting organized, and understanding the pressures of first year medical school...YES, I would do the program

Thank you for the reply. I am currently debating between two options which are this program and a networking program that is similar to Israeli Birth Right, pays for my airplane fare, makes me to visit my mother country, South Korea, which I have not visited for ten years and allows me to meet korean students studying in different countries such as USA, Germany, Japan, Canada, and Britain.
