Hi Guys, I've just joined and been reading the other threads discussing the benefits of dif. post-bac programs however little has been mentioned about UVA's.
I'm just curious if anyone has heard anything about it? Its supposed comparison to the others as far as preparation for med school?? any feedback would be great!

UVA's program has hardly been mentioned because the class that will begin this year is the inaugural class. Not much is known about how well the program prepares a student for medical school becuase UVA just created the program. I applied and have not heard back from the UVA program, however I was accepted to Georgetown's program and plan to start in the summer regardless of what the UVA result is.

Georgetown's program has been around for quite sometime and is well respected. It is not as "structured" as some of the other programs like Goucher or Bryn Mawr, however if you do well in your courses and build up your extra-currics in your free-time, you should be just as prepared as a student completing any of the other top programs in the nation.
