Hello!

I am entering an SMP this August, and I am terrified. What makes me so nervous is that I am moving hundreds of miles away to attend and just hoping I am making the right decision. I can't predict how well I will do in this program, but any advice before I get there would be helpful. I have heard mixed reviews about students taking SMPs and the "high risk, high reward" saying way too many times. The program is closer to family, which is a plus, and the school seems to care about its students. The program is at a DO medical school, so I plan to attend this school once the program is finished and maybe apply to other DO schools.

Thanks
