Medical School Advising

Planning

The following list are questions you should consider if you intend to apply to medical school and become a physician. 

1) Demonstrate that you still have the necessary academic skill, drive, and energy.
2) If you are married, devise a plan showing how you will maintain some semblance of family life.
3) Create a financial plan showing how you will deal with tuition, living expenses, mortgages, loans, day care, and relocation costs.
4)What are your motivations for being a doctor, how did you arrive at the decision, and what have you done to test this decision?
5)Why do you want to go to this particular medical school?
6)What kind of doctor do you want to be or where do you see yourself in 10 years?
6) In what ways are you unique, how does this distinguish you, and what have you done to maximize your talents?
8)Are there any irregularities in your past that might affect your acceptance into medical school? Explain them but do not make excuses. State briefly what you learned and end on positive note.
9) What do you think are some of the positive and negative aspects of being a physician?
10) If you are a re-applicant, explain the progress and changes you made since your last application. Clearly convey why you are a better applicant.
