Hello everyone,
Graduated in 2015 at an average state school and planning to apply next year for the 2018 cycle. I recently spoke to my undergraduate pre-health adviser and he told me med schools may be concerned I'm out of school for too long and my pre-reqs may expire? I never heard of that before. So he said I should consider getting a masters or doing a post bacc program before applying.
I was wondering if an SMP, Post-bacc, and those certificate programs (like Georgetown, Temple, VCU) are worth it in this case? It's a lot of money to throw down if it's not worth it.
I'm gonna leave things vague just so I don't reveal too much personal information.
Any advice appreciated. Thanks!
