- Closing Remarks and Application Tips
- Thank you for attending the UC Davis HPA office and MAPS 2020 Virtual Med School Road Trip. We hope you enjoyed and learned more about the pre-med journey.
We have a few closing remarks:
- We hope you were able to learn firsthand how schools are all different, and that you should hear from admissions officers, faculty, and current students directly when possible.
- Prepare to apply and prepare your application early.
- If you are applying this cycle, now is the time to be editing your personal statement and preparing your application materials. If you are unsure of next steps, speak with an advisor.- We highly discourage waiting until May or June to prepare your application
- UC Davis student or alumni?
HPA is here to support your entire journey to medical school, especially editing your application materials, including your personal statement, secondaries, creating a school list and more.
Please note, to our knowledge none of the sessions were recorded or provided slides. We look forward to hosting you at future events.
Join HPA and MAPS on a virtual journey across the country as we visit with medical schools from California to New York from March 22nd - 26th. Hear from physicians, students, and admissions deans to better prepare for your own journey. All are welcome to attend and attendance is not required, attend the sessions you can! Please note that these sessions will only be hosted live and not recorded. We hope to see you there!
