Students will prepare for their application and develop a plan to apply early to the various application services. Students will also work on acquiring the skills to tackle the secondary applications as well as work in teams to actively practice MMI-style interview questions and work independently on how to answer typical medical school interview questions utilizing their pre-professional competencies. Finally, through a series of guest lectures from professionals at TMC, students will dive into medical ethics which will help them prepare for their applications and interviews.
