Anyone attending this fall? I was just accepted today.

Can any past participants in the program shed any light?

Has anyone gained admission through the linkages?

I got in but I'm on the fence as to whether I should commit. Drexel is definitely one of my favorites but not my no.1, which I have yet to hear back from.

i was accepted for fall 2011, but i'm hesitant to attend. the administration seems very disorganized/non-responsive, and in the online info. session, they could not provide statistics on what % of PMED students get in to medical school.

another strange thing - in my acceptance e-mail, there was a link to "important documents." when i clicked on the documents, they had "2008" printed in bold at the top. so drexel can't even update its "important documents" from 3 years ago?!?! something about this program is very unsettling.

any thoughts on drexel's PMED credibility/success rates?

My experiences with their attentiveness has been positive so far. I had a question regarding my application and they responded the day of with a voice-message. With that being said, I still have concerns about their program but I hope that they'll be put to rest on Monday. I plan on having a lengthy conversation about the things you mentioned and the level of assistance I should expect for them when applying to medical school. Maybe you and I could maintain contact via PMs to better inform our decisions...

I too just got accepted and am on the fence. Is there anyone out there who is definitely attending?

I am all set to start the PMED program at Drexel in August 2011. Is anyone else definitely going?

Has anyone spoken with alums of the program about whether it is worth it, etc? If so, what is the feedback from these alums?

For those of you who have started this Fall, how is it? What are the courses and professors like? Is it really as disorganized as some people claim? Also, is the summer start just for people who want a math refresher for chem and physics? The program website doesnt specify. Thanks.

I'm applying for spring semester for the Drexel PMED program. Can you guys tell me what the interview process was like? What was asked, etc?

I'm hearing mixed reviews on this program, but I'd like to think it's worth the money!
