Hey,
Was wondering if anyone else is applying to the Technion TeAMs program from next year?

Hey Eblashko, thanks a lot. I got the acceptance by email. My stats are 3.5 and 29O . Did you interview there yet and if so do you really plan on going?
ich bin a yid?
Also a member of the tribe.
I had 34 and about 3.5 gpa. I also have a us md admit, so I am kind of debating technion,
Yea, that's a tough call. What are you leaning towards? When do you have to let them know by?
The Technion is by far the best medical school in Israel. It appears that almost everyone in the American program of the medical school received MCAT scores above 30 with GPAs above 3.5 and with acceptances into US allopathic schools. There is absolutely no cheating and backstabbing here like most med schools. All of the bad stuff you read on studentdoctor is filled with lies from bad students. The dean of TeAMS is actually one of the most amazing gentleman that I have ever met. I am surprised that he is not the dean of a major American medical school. He certainly deserves this type of recognition for everything he has done here. The dean has made TeAMS one of the finest medical programs in the world. The classes are amazing, and the professors all have a full command of the English language. They easily digest complex medical concepts perfectly into powerpoint presentations that are the lifeblood of the program. The professors all really have a love for teaching which is evidenced by almost perfect attendance from the students. In actuality, most of the students here turned down offers from Sackler, Ben-Gurion, and US allopathic schools. People say this city is polluted and has some of the highest cancer rates in all of Israel, but they are simply mistaken. This type of slander about a place I call home is very offensive to me. This is probably propaganda originating from Sackler and Ben-Gurion administrators, but I cannot say for sure. Choose Technion and do not look back. It will be the best decision of your life.
Anyone else here decided to attend yet? I just got accepted and am debating between a few options.
For those still waiting: 33O, 3.5
I am in the same boat, kind of torn between going to mid-tier midwest US schools versus sunny Israel in one of the world's premier universities.
If I knew that studying in Israel had zero effect on residency placement the choice would be easy.
I've heard nothing of late unfortunately. I wouldn't be too concerned the website says replies come between April and July. They have a lot of paperwork to go through I'm certain and it's a great program.
If you think the Technion has a great medical program, it is very likely that your brain size is less than 500cc.
