I know we all have completely devoted and dedicated ourselves into this premed committment, but I personally wonder if it's more practical to have something backup in case medical schools reject me. What I mean is, other than reapply in the next year, maybe getting a MS degree or a JD degress first. In fact, MS degree and JD degree are both pursuable for pre-med track people, since law schools only ask for LSAT.
By considering these backup options, however, require you to study for GRE and LSAT as well. So my question is, does any of you, like me, is thinking about applying more than medical school at the same time? Let's say, dental school, pharm. school, law school, osteopathic school and grad. school.
And do you also study for GRE and other exam?
If so, does this has any negative effect on medical school application process or the study plan in general. You know, what will you answer to the addcom in the interview if they ask you, "where else do you apply? What? Law school? What? Osteopathic school? What? Pharm School? What? Nursing School?"
You got my idea?
By the way, I sort of eliminate the possibility that someone might want to apply to business school, since it requires work exp. and very different course req.
So, is this wise to have a backup plan like another pro. school?
thanks
