Thank you so much for watching! I've gotten tons of questions in the comments asking about program specifics and details (curriculum, classes, etc.). I am always willing to answer them, but to keep it straight, I wanted to pin this here to say that from now on, please check with the .edu website first, then email me specific questions so that it doesn't overload the comment section. I appreciate every single one of your questions, and trust me I will do my best to answer them but please try to email me first. I can probably improve the quality of my answers from there. Thank you guys!
@@irissanchez2316 Once you get to medical school, you are just like every other medical student in the class! This means you still have to go through residency in your desired specialty which is completely separate from the program, but every practicing physician must go through that training. Hope that helps answer your question!
Good job young man! I’m sure your family and friends are super proud of you. My son is currently a senior in HS and applying to several of the BS/MD programs, wish us luck...
this video is so well made, i just got accepted to boston u's 7yr bsmd! (i'm gonna be doing a film minor focused on editing so I appreciate your video visually sm)
Thank you and congrats on the acceptance! Always great to see students balancing their passion for science and art, you'll have a great time at Boston!
Hi I’m french i gone pass the sat , but i don’t know if they can take me , because i don’t have the time to do activity , I woke up at 7am and school at 8:30 to 6 pm and i have homework’s like 2 or 3 hours , i dont have time to do the same activity as the American , and also i can do ap class because that is only in the us , but i know the level of French in physics mathematic, are almost like a ap class .
I wish knew about this a long time ago 🤦🏾♂️. I hope it's not too late as I'm already approaching my junior year. Shot out to @BSMDLYD and You for the interview between you too. Thanks!
Hey thanks for the video it was super informative! Specifically for Augusta, what characteristics do you think are the major things they look for from applicants?
I cannot necessarily say specifics as I am not on the selection committee and their criteria could change from year to year as far as I know. The primary thing any of these BS/MD programs are looking for is commitment to the field, so plenty of early clinical experience and exposure. These programs are career commitments at 17/18 so they have to see that you won't change your mind half way through.
I can try my best but BS/MD programs are so unique in terms of what they want that it is hard to make a comprehensive guide! I can say that the key trait that unites all BS/MD programs is that they are looking for commitment to medicine. Since you are entering a program that commits you to a career right out of high school, programs want to see that you are fully committed to medicine. What that may look like is up to you to show off! Whether it be extensive clinical service hours, early research exposure, or leadership in medically relevant high school organizations, as long as you can show that you are passionate about the field and are not going to change your mind half-way through, you should be a great applicant to any BS/MD program!
It depends on the program that you are in! Typically programs that waive the MCAT have other restrictions such as requiring research or that you are only guaranteed interview, not acceptance, at the medical school. But most programs I have seen require the MCAT with varying minimum score requirements for matriculation. Hope that helps!
Hello I appreciate this video so much!! Would you mind telling me what is the approximate likelihood or possibility that students in BS can go onto MD? I heard that a considerablr portion of BS students do not get to go onto MD so I was curious if that is just false info. Thank you😃
So it honestly just depends on your cohort. for example, the cohorts before me had around a 40-50% drop out rate meaning that they were unable to matriculate through the program to medical school. however, my class had a 99% matriculation rate meaning only 1 person was unable to successfully complete the program and move on to medical school. It is true that every program will never have a 100% matriculation rate...if that were the case, it would be too easy. Regardless of whether you get to medical school the traditional route or through an accelerated program, you must EARN your seat in medical school
My program allowed it, with certain restrictions for classes they deemed important enough to take again. But I never took an english or history in college due to AP credits!
I remember a few people in my program did! But it was during spring or summer break and not for an entire semester, although that was a university unique program that allowed it. The answer definitely depends on your exact program and university but if you’re passionate about it, you can always work something out!
It's hard to say an exact acceptance rate because the number of applicants varies from year to year. But I do know they like to keep the number accepted around 20-25 in total and they do prefer GA residents since it is the only public medical school in the state. I have also seen a few students in the newer classes graduate early to get into this program, but I personally would recommend that you enjoy a high school senior year. You will already be skipping a year of college in a BS/MD program so enjoy the young freedom while you can!
Yes! In my class there was someone from Michigan and California! Other years have had students from North Carolina, Florida, and more that I might be missing.
Typically yes, most programs want to see you can handle the rigor of an advanced program. But as long as you do well in your classes in general, don't let a lack of advanced classes hold you back from applying!
For the Augusta University specifically, are there good amounts of scholarships given to the people getting into the program? And to people going into medical school from the program? I heard that there are scholarships to people that are going from the program to the medical school at Augusta, given the condition that they will work at the hospitals assigned to them (by the gov’t or institution) for a certain number of years after the med school. Your video was super helpful, thank you!!
Glad you liked the video! From what I know, scholarships are given on an individual basis with all university students who applied considered. The fact that you are in the program does not increase or decrease your chances of getting a scholarship in both undergrad or med school. As far as the hospital assignment, I think this is what you are referring to: There is a program possibly going into effect for the Class of 2024, but more than likely after my class, where you could finish med school in 3 years but you have to do primary care in rural Georgia as your specialty. This is a state initiative to address the physician shortage in those areas of Georgia. There are rumors of potential stipends or loan forgiveness associated with being a part of that rural medicine program, but it is still so new even for current medical students that I can't say anything for certain. Hope that answers some of your questions!
@@NDMD So there are no scholarships given to people in BS/MD program when going into medical school, right? It's just that you get a "conditional acceptance" to medical school and get to finish it earlier? Thank you so much for answering :))
There are general scholarships that are given to med students, and I know there have been BS/MD students who have gotten med school scholarships. But their scholarship was not because they were in the program. They had to earn it just as just a general member of the incoming med school class. However if this makes you feel any better, saving a year of tuition and undergrad expenses could be considered a financial scholarship in itself and a big perk to being in the program! You will still have to go through all 4 years of medical school as normal but some of the money that would have gone to a 4th year of undergrad can be saved for med school expenses.
I don't remember any of the BS/DMD students in my year taking in so I am assuming they also do not accept the psych credit. Again, just depends on the program you apply to and what credits they will allow you to carry over from high school

After you finished the BS/MD programs. Do you still have to do seven to three years of residency?

Do your ap credits count with a bs/md program just like another college would? (like English and history credits)
My program allowed it, with certain restrictions for classes they deemed important enough to take again. But I never took an english or history in college due to AP credits!
What were your high school stats and EC?
Might make a video on it in the future, stay tuned!
@@NDMD ok thanks!
Can you please send me the link for the program
Yayyy Augusta I live here !!
Can you study abroad as a BS/MD student? Either during you undergrad or med school time.
I remember a few people in my program did! But it was during spring or summer break and not for an entire semester, although that was a university unique program that allowed it. The answer definitely depends on your exact program and university but if you’re passionate about it, you can always work something out!
What is the acceptance rate of this for residents in GA? And would you recommend someone graduating early and they get in?
It's hard to say an exact acceptance rate because the number of applicants varies from year to year. But I do know they like to keep the number accepted around 20-25 in total and they do prefer GA residents since it is the only public medical school in the state.

You will already be skipping a year of college in a BS/MD program so enjoy the young freedom while you can!
@@NDMD We actually accepted 29 this year! 10 DMDs and 19 MDs
Do you know If anyone in your bs/md program is out of state?
Yes! In my class there was someone from Michigan and California! Other years have had students from North Carolina, Florida, and more that I might be missing.
Do you have to stay on campus if you already stay in Augusta?
nope! you can commute
do u need advanced classes to get into bs md?
Typically yes, most programs want to see you can handle the rigor of an advanced program. But as long as you do well in your classes in general, don't let a lack of advanced classes hold you back from applying!
