The course is based on a book I co-wrote called "Kevin and Indira's New Guide to Getting Into Medical School" and its aim is to take students through the confusing pathway leading to medical school. Segments provide strategic guidance to students. They include advice on university work, getting relevant experience, the application process, personal statements, MCAT, the all important interview. There's also a discussion of appropriate conduct during the overall process.
