Hi. You would never know how useful this was. So one question, Do Michigan offer this program. If it dose. Is it a good place. Next question. I am an 9th grade in highschool. What should i do for my whole highschool to get into BS/MD. What should i do after graduation 🎓
Hi! University of Michigan does not offer this program, but Wayne State University does. It's a great program. Please check out our blogs for some advice that can help you get into these programs: bemoacademicconsulting.com/blog/bs-md-programs and bemoacademicconsulting.com/blog/from-high-school-to-med-school
Hi, I found your video very helpful! I was wondering if you could recommend some medical/research programs that I could do during the summer to gain some extra experience. Thanks!
Hi Bhuvi, thank you for your comment, I'm so happy you enjoyed the video! We actually have a few new blogs regarding ways to gain experiences that would be great for medical school. Here are some job ideas: bemoacademicconsulting.com/blog/premed-gap-year-jobs and here are some extracurricular ideas: bemoacademicconsulting.com/blog/extracurriculars-for-medical-school -Nadine
@@BeMoAcademicConsulting Thank you so much! I looked through the blogs and they were very helpful. However, I could not find lots of things that I could do as a 15 year old high schooler. So I was wondering if there are are any online research programs that I could do? Thanks!
Hi Bhuvi, A good place to start is to look at if your high school, or local area (city or provincial/state government) has options for high school students interested in STEM. These programs usually have high school research experiences for students in their summer breaks to get them interested in science. Due to the pandemic, most research positions have moved online for this summer. You can also try searching for some of these opportunities online by typing: "high school science research", "high school STEM research" "[Local Area Name/University] high school research". Finally, you could also try reaching out to your network (family/friends) and see if there are any professors who you can volunteer with. Hope that helps and good luck! -Nadine
Hi, I found your video very helpful. Thank you for your clarifications. I do have some questions regarding the application process, if you could answer the questions below, it would be great. -Do schools choose certain people to apply to BS/MD programs, or can you just apply on your own? -So the only things you need to focus on are SAT/ACT, grades/GPA, extracurricular activities, (a good interview, essay and recommendation letters,) and maybe some SAT subject tests and volunteering at hospitals and medical related clubs?
Hi Sarah, thank you so much for your comments. I'm happy to hear that you found the video helpful. You'll be applying to BS/MD programs that are best suited for you. Many medical schools review applicants holistically, so you'll have to show that you're a well-rounded individual. One of our admissions experts would love to help you out with what you need to do to ensure your application stands out! Please send an email to info@bemoacademicconsulting.com to schedule your free initial consultation to go over all the details. -Nadine
thanks so much this helped me a lot! I was wondering if University of Minnesota Medical School accepts out of state applicants? If not, which one of the 5 schools that you have mentioned in the end do?
You're very welcome Angela, I'm so happy you enjoyed it! For specific questions regarding out of state applicants, it's best to email the admissions office directly to ensure you receive the most up to date information. -Nadine
Yes, it is highly recommended that you are in the top 5% of you class. Successful BS/MD students are those with GPAs close to 4.0, with top percentile scores in the SAT or ACT.
Very useful. Which are the university who accepts International students for this BS/MD program? My daughter needs to go to college next year and she wants to medicine in the USA.
Thank you so much for your question. The best way to confirm if a program admits international students is to email the school of your choice directly. Please see the full list of BS/MD programs here bemoacademicconsulting.com/blog/bs-md-programs
Hi Amin, thanks for your comment. This totally depends on the school to which you're applying. It's best to have a look at specific program acceptance rates to find out the overall success rate, average accepted MCAT and average accepted GPA to determine which program is best suited for you based on your own stats. In addition, DO and MD programs are quite different in their philosophy. Have a look at our DO vs MD blog if you want to learn more about the differences and similarities between the two programs: bemoacademicconsulting.com/blog/do-versus-md -Nadine
Hi, I have a question. I am a sophomore at my school, but my school does not have a ranking for students. Does this affect my acceptance to a BSMD program? I take a lot of AP's, Honors, wrestle, and volunteer and shadow.
Hello Karan! Thanks so much for your question. If your school does not rank students, it should not affect you negatively. As long as you can get references and complete all the other requirements, you should be an eligible candidate.
Hello Arya! There are some BS/MD programs that have accelerated curriculum, but not all of them do. BS/MDs allow students to complete their baccalaureate degree and proceed directly into medical school to obtain their MD. In some cases, the undergraduate degree and medical degree will be obtained from the same university, while in other cases, each degree will be completed at a separate partnered institution. Depending on the program, students can obtain both a Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Arts, along with an MD in 7-8 years. Seven-year programs are accelerated versions of the eight-year program, allowing students to complete their undergrad degree in only 3 years. While rare, a handful of schools offer BS/MD programs that take only 6 years to complete.
Hi there, thanks for your comment! A lack of AP English should not be a barrier. Each BS/MD program has slightly different requirements, so do look on the websites of the schools you want to apply to and ensure you meet all requirements.
@@BeMoAcademicConsulting my teachers are not letting me take any because english is my second language even through I am doing really well in all classes. I am really worried that this will prevent me from getting into BSMD programs and my other dream colleges?

Hi, thank you for your question. No, BS/MD programs are not free.
hi thank u so much
You're very welcome!

Thank you for the information!!
Do you know whether this program is still requiring ACT/SAT for the schools that are test optional now?
You're very welcome!
Hi Janyia, it's best to contact the programs you're interested in directly to find the most up to date information.

@Deborah Oyebade Thanks for your comment! I think, it's best to contact the schools of your choice to figure out your position.
