ok so i just figured that i am eligible to apply to both GTOWN SMP and GTOWN GEMS.
Obvious differences:
SMP:
Masters Degree open to anyone that meets the criteria (of course ..being selected is a factor)
Its one year, and success rates are amazing in various medical schools if you do good in SMP.
GEMS:
Also one year, but from what I understand...its just a "postbacc program" with no certification or degree?? (correct?)
It has very well success rates to GUSOM if u do well in the program.
Question is....if I were to get into both, which one should I pick? To my understanding, GEMS has a better chance of putting people in GUSOM; however, probably limits admission to other med schools (not sure)
Whereas, SMP opens door for many schools (if done well in program) upon completion....
Can i get someone's opinion in which is better to pick? I really don't care for any specific schools for Medical school as long as its an US MD school.
Thanks
