Feedback from Medical School Deans,
M1s are people who give of themselves, have outstanding academics, strong MCAT scores and extensive volunteering.
M1s don’t get off track by cheating, stealing or hurting others or themselves. M1s are mature adults.
M1s are not people who embrace failure, waste time, make excuses or accept their own limitations. Go past where you are to get to your future.
