Review There are over 30,000 applicants to medical school each year - and more who don't complete the application process. So this title should appeal to any who want to include medical school in their plans: it surveys medical career options and specialties, considers programs which include accelerated courses, discusses undergraduate preparation, and covers everything from visiting the school to fielding the interview and application forms. Get Into Medical School! is absolutely essential for any planning a medical career. -- Midwest Book Review

By A Customer This book is almost exactly what I've been looking for. It has solid information on every step of the application process, from high school activities to choosing between multiple acceptances (we wish!). Also very useful was the section on international options, for those who have been rejected in the U.S. My only complaint is that nothing is mentioned about the importance of residency (i.e. what state you live in and what states you are applying to), and no mention is made of Canadian schools as an option.Overall, however, this is probably the best medical school applications resource that I have found, 11 of 14 people found the following review helpful. Alot of money for poor info By mmockovak@arisvision.com Now that I am in I am writing reviews on these books. The reviews for this one must have been written by the publisher. My friend lent me this one because he told me to save my money. You can spend alot of time reading this and not getting much from it. Better to spend time studying for the MCAT's and reading a more concise admissions book. Rec. Princeton Review and Insider's Guide by Toyos. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Perfect for the paranoid premed By MedHead I was once a paranoid premed who needed some guidance on how to pursue my dream. This book acts as a detailed guide to the medical path. Sometimes the book gets a little too specific on some of the "rules" (i.e. how to pack your clothes with attached diagrams), but these are only suggestions. Sometimes, these specifics are really helpful if you're clueless on what to do. This is an excellent book and I have already recommended it to some of my premed friends. See all 7 customer reviews...
