Future M.D.

About the Book

This Book Is Everything You Need To Know On How To Enter Medical School. In the author’s words, "Future M.D. is a compilation of my experiences through the process..." On that basis, Aashish R. Parikh has written specific step-by-step procedures for becoming a doctor with virtually every detail clearly explained in the application and acceptance process, from choosing the right school to key interview questions and how to give the best answers. He shows you how to write a compelling personal statement, explains the MCAT, guides you through the medical disciplines and the requirements you will encounter while pursuing your medical license. He has included the very latest information on accredited schools in the U.S. and Canada with all physical and e-mail addresses, federal and alternative loan programs, as well as selecting the best financial assistance, education tax breaks, and other extremely valuable information.

Future M.D. has everything an aspiring medical student MUST KNOW for a "dream" to become "reality." As the author explains, "Each year approximately 40,000 students apply for 16,000 medical school positions, and our goal here is to separate you from the other 24,000 applicants." Future M.D. is definitely a MUST READ!
