Hey Everyone,
I was recently accepted to the Diploma Program at HES's Health Careers Program and I have a few questions that I hope can be answered:
For reference I have a BA in History and a 3.52 GPA

1. Will the HES post bacc be a useful program for achieving med school acceptance?

2. What are some other activities I should be doing during my course of study at Harvard to make me more competitive for med school? i.e. volunteer/ hospital work.

3. Beyond the standard pre-reqs what are some other classes i should take? i.e. calc 1 & 2 and Biochem

Also If anyone has attended HES please let me know, as I have some particular questions about the program and the cambridge area.

Thanks for your time!
