I'd like to obtain a MS degree in Biomedical Engineering, proceed to graduate school, then apply for MD/PhD programs. My logic behind all of this? I believe that it will provide more time for research in my field of study and will show MSTP programs that I'm capable of handling work at the graduate level in my field already. I'd like some insight as to whether or not this is a solid game plan for goal of acquiring both an MD and PhD degree. Lastly, I am hoping to apply to many top programs and would also appreciate further advice on the admissions process. Thank you in advance.
