hey! Did you end up going? If so, can you describe your experience or anything that might help? Thank you!
Hi! I apologize for not responding sooner, crazy work schedule.
Yes, I ended up going. This was my second Open House with them ( I also went last May).
A lot of people showed up and they combined people that were interested in their MHS and Osteopathic programs together. A first year medical student, Ryan gave us a quick tour of school (it's a closed campus-looks like a big 2 story maze). We also visited a cool virtual anatomy lab where you can dissect corpses and study different organ systems individually.
Then we had presentation given by a MHS director talking about the masters program itself. Here is a quick summary:
-During anatomy lab, the specimen are already pre dissected by 1st year medical students. Our job would be just show up and learn what's inside.
-MHS students don't have any overlapping classes with medical students, but the first year of med school would strongly mimic what was already learned at MHS.
-Same professors and sometimes even same tests are given.
-MCAT 500+ and GPA in MHS guarantees an interview (but in reality, the seat is yours)
-It is possible to work for school during the program
-Lectures are powerpoint heavy
I also briefly met their new Admissions director Tava and she said that the first application discussion should have been last week of September. So I'm guessing anyone who already applied should hear from the pretty soon.
LMK if you want to know anything else!
