Is anyone applying there/have applied there already? I'm hoping to apply to the one year program.Hi! I would love to know which medical schools (MD and DO) students were accepted into for the year immediately following completion of the program (other than EVMS). I am applying to the 1 year Med Masters, and am planning to apply to medical school the summer before completion of the program.
What are the classes like and how are they structured? Any easy courses/extremely hard courses? Do you know anyone that has been able to successfully opt out upon matriculation?
Was your PostBacCas verified? if not you have to wait for that first but once it's verified, it takes two weeks or a little less
I got accepted so you might hear back by friday!
They should have given you a list of things to make you more competitive. Do them and keep your fingers crossed, they accept students up to the day of matriculation
They have to send you your network credentials. I didn't get mine until I called them and told them I didn't receive them yet, I think there was something wrong with sending it out.
I got my credentials after 4 business days
check your evms secondary portal too
The stats include the 2 years. So on average 90% of all students
I can't really tell you which one to pick but i would tell you to look at the curriculums. I looked at Georgetown's webpage and it was a little hard to navigated (i'm still not sure if its 1 or 2 years). I don't find the course descriptions appealing but EVMS's courses look cool and actually excite me especially because i would be medical school classes. So i would say apply to both if you haven't.
Congrats! If you're in the area, you should check them both out in person because I'm not sure if there's a significant difference in consideration for both. Whichever school you would rather be at (if you matriculate directly) might be best
Deadline is June or july, im not sure
Thank you! So my application was marked complete 4/23, so 4 days!
Former Med Master here; incoming MD student. The courseload is heavy, and material is released one week at a time generally. Any way you slice it, it is very involving. The first semester you will spend a lot of time in the Anatomy lab if you want to be successful, and the second semester dives into the details of each system (Skin, Bone, Muscle & GI). As far as EC's it completely depends on how much time you're hoping to devote to other things. You can do that if you manage your time, but it's tough. Don't worry about the gpa average. Instead worry about not getting any B's and trying to stay above the test average that is typically released after each exam. Contrary to what everyone will tell you, grades are not the only factor that is considered. You should strive to be professional, display a positive attitude and willingness to work, integrate yourself into the wider community, and attenuate whatever your weaknesses are. Be a strong, well rounded candidate. Lastly, understand that as long as you are successful in the program, you will become very competitive for a large number of schools upon completing your degree.
I would caution against trying to work while in the 1 year program. Again, it's not impossible, but even a weekend job will eat up a lot of your time in the long run. You don't want to do anything to put yourself at a disadvantage relative to your peers, in my humble opinion. Definitely join the facebook group! You can get on more person terms with future and former classmates, and you may also find that many of your questions have been addressed
I asked to join, but havent been approved yet. How long does it normally take?
Same here, I haven't gotten approved
