Hello Guys,
I am accepted by three premed master programs, one is Master of Science in Biomedical Imaging at UCSF, one is Master of Health Science at JHU, and the last one is Master of Medical Sciences in Immunology at Harvard. Does anyone know about these programs? Which one will be more helpful for medical school application?
 
For starters, settle down, this isn't pre-allo where 40 kids who know nothing give you 60 dumb answers in the first 5 minutes.

What's your motivation to do one of these programs? THIS MATTERS.

If your undergrad GPA is crap, none of these programs will help much. Ten times truer in California.

If your stats are average or better (3.6+, 32+ on the old scale) and you want some app oomph, do something that gets you pubs.

I have no idea if the programs you're listing will give you pubs. These programs might be offended by being asked about as if they are "postbacs". Rigorous graduate study that produces publishable work isn't a postbac - it's grad school.

And now most likely you're mad because no volunteer anonymous unpaid expert gave you a precise answer to your exact question.

Best of luck to you.

Ha! Amen. Can this be the tagline of the postbac forum?
