I know that a good portion of my first year class did the MS program last year here at PCOM.

I am not sure what % of their class is here, at another medical school, or in other places.

This is the program that I speak of. There is also a 2-3 year program that is research based.

Thanks JP. PCOM is one of my top choice schools, and I was wondering if it would be a good option to do their post bac program since I am graduating in May and am only going to apply to the 2004 entering class. Being a Philly resident, I am aware of all the post bac in town, and I cant decide which one to attend. What do your classmates say about the program? Worth it or not?
Again...Thanks

From what I can see it is worth it.

Many of them are here, so that is a good sign.

If you want to go to PCOM then do PCOMs program. You will make connections here. Also, many of the professors are the same so you will know teaching styles and how they test.

Also...you will start off with several friends as a first year med student...very beneficial to have a good support system.

Good luck.
