A Medicine Cabinet

01/07/2022

We're so thankful to our amazing and talented panelists, comprised of accepted medical students across the U.S.! Thank you to all who attended as well - we would not have been able to put on our Medical Student Q&A Panel without you!

We heard from members of the AMC/TOC team, current medical students at Boston University School of Medicine and University of Michigan School of Medicine, and an admitted FlexMed student at Icahn School of Medicine in Mt. Sinai during a discussion on medical school, the application process, the MCAT, gap years, and much more! Panelists shared their experiences and wisdom to aspiring pre-medical students on how to build a strong application for upcoming application cycles, as well as what life is like as a current medical student.

Recaps will be posted on our website and YouTube channel (link in bio) - we are so excited to keep working towards our goal of making medical education more accessible. Check out the highlights on our YouTube page! 💫

Come follow A Medicine Cabinet in our journey to make getting into medical school accessible! We know that with online classes and volunteer center closures, it’s harder than ever to figure out your path to medicine - ESPECIALLY for those who are underrepresented, first-generation or low income! We’ll be posting introductions of our team members, opportunities for you to learn with us, and some quality medical school admissions tips, so stay connected!
- with love, the Medicine Cabinet team 😊
