Pre-med is one of the most popular paths among applicants to selective colleges, so “I want to be a doctor” won’t set you apart. Learn how to show a real, specific interest in medicine through your courses, activities, and essays.
Pre-med is one of the most popular paths among applicants to selective colleges, which means admissions officers read a lot of applications from aspiring doctors. Standing out takes more than saying you want to help people. You need a clear, specific picture of how you’ve explored health and science, and why you care.

This webinar shows high school students and families how to apply to selective colleges with a pre-med or pre-health focus. That includes how to plan your high school years and how to pick schools that set you up for success after you’re admitted.
