Oh. I didn't realize you two knew each other - I thought they were public. Seriously though, what is bad? Where do they offer these SM programs?
you could just ask me. and guju--please don't. smp=special masters program
SMP = special masters program. This is a type of program where you do a 1 year masters program by taking the courses the med students take in their first year. At some SMP programs it is all the same courses that the MS I's take (USF is this way). At other SMP programs like BU or Georgetown it is a mix of some of the MS I year courses and other masters courses but not the whole curricula of MS year I at that school.
If you do well in such a program then it can greatly help your application when you are weak in academics. Nikki's in that sort of program. At the specific one she's at, if you do well you are supposed to be guaranteed an interview at that particular school. At least, I believe that's what she told me a long time ago.
Don't remember much about her particular SMP program. I only know a bit about Wakeforest, Georgetown, BU, and USF. Those are the ones I had looked into in the past.
Her score was not a 30 but it was very very close to 30, which leads me to question why she didn't get any interviews last year. I don't know if her MCAT score was really the cause of it. But then I don't know her full profile so I can't comment. But Nikki will be fine. I have a good feeling about it.
guju--PLEASE DO NOT TELL PEOPLE WHAT SMP I AM IN!! i gave you that info in private. and thanks for being so sweet--i know you're gonna get good news tomorrow🙂
I didn't say the number. Dont worry.
I am not don't worry buddy. I was just describing what an SMP is that's all. I wouldn't give away that information.
Wow GuruDoc....you are from Florida? Did u attend USF?

Hmm I wish I had some Southpark right now...
I'm so tired today.
1 day and a few hours left.
So would you rather get a 33S or a 35N?
I have a friend who's average was 28 or 29 on practice tests with scoring 30 like maybe once or twice. She ended up with a 35R which was an 8 point increase from the second time she took it.
So it is possible.
who feels like they can't think of anything else and are completely losing it?????? Raise your hand here or say Ay Ay
I say Ay Ay on that one!!!!
I'm a female....taken some classes there as a Biomedical Science major...and yes I know REL too... 🙂

Special Masters Program...?
Don't tell me you get a MS degree from only taking 1 year of classes...
