Gaining admittance into medical school is a very competitive process and requires years of careful planning and execution. However, many students who have invested large amounts of time and effort still fail to earn an acceptance. Thus, it is important to realize that you will not only be competing with your peers but with repeat applicants. Without a doubt having gone through the process before is an advantage when compared to a first-time applicant. This book is designed to make you as familiar with the process as someone who has already gone through it and increase your chances of success the first time around. A Med Student's Guide to Getting In provides a unique perspective on the medical school process, as the author is currently a medical student and just recently completed the application process. Most books are written by physicians or medical school admissions personnel. While their perspectives are worthwhile and valid, physicians have not gone through the application process in quite some time and admissions personnel may have never gone through the process. The value of the author's perspective is derived from his recent exposure to numerous medical school's application processes. He is able to provide a detailed and insightful take on the application process and what it takes to be successful because his experiences are still fresh in his memory. Ernie Morton is currently a medical student who had to learn much of the information regarding medical school admissions the hard way. As a pre-med student, Ernie struggled to find comprehensive and concise information regarding the application process. It is his goal to help pre-med students understand the medical school application process, make the most of their time during undergraduate years, and increase their chances for admittance. A Med Student's Guide to Getting in will provide readers with tips and advice on how to spend their time before, during, and after the application process. In addition, this book contains FREE tools to help pre-med students succeed. These tools will help students log their experiences, plan their courses for the 4 or 5 years spent earning a Bachelor's degree, prepare for medical school interviews, and provide a detailed checklist broken down by each year leading up to medical school.
