How 5 Different Students Got Into BS/MD Programs | PSU/Jeff BS/MD Program (Stats, ECs)
Ik when I was in HS, I wanted to see how kids got into BS/MD programs, but after attending one, I realize that there are both commonalities and extreme differences between all candidates. I was always a who re for stats, but there are many others who excelled in other respects. A few people have requested that I make a video about how I got into the PSU/Jeff program, but I feel as though it might be a little bit more helpful to highlight the different aspects of 5 different people's applications and how it helped them get into BS/MD programs. Avinash also gives a really heartfelt speech pitching the PSU program. We will be going over stats and ECs as well.

Great information. Background music makes it hard to hear and understand what the speakers are talking. Small suggestion. Hope you take it well! Keep rocking

Thank you. I agree. The music changed volumes throughout so sometimes it was hard to balance.

Hi! It’s so random that I stumbled across your channel! I go to penn state (currently a sophomore) and I want to go to medical school. Penn state truly has something for everyone! I was going to apply to the BS/MD and had the stats for it but I did not have the money for undergrad and med school. I instead applied to MSP and got in (I got a full ride, room board and tuition) and I’m glad that this is the route that I pursued being that I won’t have debt. However, my laboratory research partner is actually in your program and we always discuss how crazy it is that we both want to become physicians, but are on totally different paths that we both really value. I’m also a small KZreadr too so it’s nice to “virtually meet you!”. Happy New Year and good luck with all your future endeavors!

The med school near my uni seems to disfavor those with family members in medicine because their desire to become a doctor is likely pushed on them by family. I didnt know the legacy thing extended to med school.
How did you get research opportunities?
Background music is annoying hear however very helpful info
When the whole squad is just Asians
Im a freshman in high school and I am taking 5 AP classes this year: AP world, AP Art History, AP psychology, AP Comp Science Principals, and AP Chemistry. I’m also taking Spanish 2, La 9, and trig/pre calc. I have 97s and 100s in all of my classes but my La 9 score is a 92. I also had a very bad test score in AP chemistry (50%) and that dropped my grade down to an 80. It’s the end of the quarter and my grades are locked in. I guess my question really is what was your lowest test score and do you think I’ll still get into a BSMD program even with my bad grades?
How is bacc2md program in the university of toledo, plz guide
thanks, but the music is too loud
I have a question. So my 2 uncles and 2 cousins attended the pennstate bsmd program, the one ur attending. Does the program count uncles/aunts and cousins as legacy? Also, I’m rlly close w my extended family, we all live in the same neighborhood, or 5 mins aeay

I didn't do research in high school and I'm regretting it rn as I apply for colleges, dont wish such a situation on anyone else. So what you do is really just straight up email professors. Get a list of bs/mds or top schools you wanna apply to. Research the values/research of particular professors at the instiutions. Prepare a persuasive email format and spam them to like a 100 professors. Remember each of them gets flooded with similar emails. Be prepared to face a lot of rejection or just no response. But I guarantee one door will open. Even if it doesnt, there are many opportunities left. Just never give up and set your sign on the goal, whatever that may be. Gl.
I just want to know what kind of research y’all were doing in high school?

well, I didn't do any rsearch at all but for most of them it was likely benchwork/ wetlab at their local colleges. This probably involved cold emailing professors and then maybe counting cells and stuff.
