Hey guys, i'm a current medsci, and I can tell you that if you can do well in this program then you'll do well in med school. Honestly, if you can't do well in this program then you may want to reconsider doing medical school/dental/or PA. The classes are essentially the same as first year medical/dental school, so if this workload/information is too much for you then maybe look in other directions, but i'm pretty sure everyone applying/in the program is pretty ready to be able to handle everything! A huge chunk of our class was accepted to TCOM. I will be starting dental school at a&m in the fall, and this program made a huge difference plus you will definitely be ahead when it comes time to start studying for medical school/dental school. The biostats class was online, but we had a few different workshops through out the summer. I believe we had to go to 3/4 of the workshops to get credit. If you are doing dental and have to do the DAT prep, it's online, but if you have to do MCAT prep, it's in class. hope this helps!
Also, it's good experience for learning how to balance life and professional school. I have managed to maintain a great social life, and while we have one more class, I should be graduating with around a 3.7! Y'all can do it!
