What does it take to stand out as a pre-med, pre-health, or BS/MD applicant? This is your chance to hear directly from an admissions expert who has been on both sides of the admissions process.
What separates successful pre-med and BS/MD applicants from the rest?

In this CollegeAdvisor webinar, admissions expert Katie Chiou, a Brown PLME alumna and current Mount Sinai medical resident, shares insights from both sides of the admissions journey. Drawing on her experience navigating a highly selective BS/MD program and progressing through medical training, Katie will walk students and families through the key strategies strong applicants use to stand out in competitive pre-med and BS/MD admissions.

This webinar will cover:
- How successful applicants approach pre-med vs. BS/MD pathways
- What admissions committees look for beyond GPA and test scores
- How to build a compelling academic and extracurricular profile
- Common misconceptions about BS/MD programs and pre-med preparation
- What students should focus on now to stay on track for medical school

This session is ideal for high school students considering pre-med or BS/MD programs and parents looking to better understand the admissions landscape.
