What’s Wrong with This Advice? Asking “What Have You Been Told?” as a First Step in Advising Pre-meds

Current and future applicants please consider reading the following article.  The article is written with input from advisors and admissions directors at a variety of institutions.  The highlighted sections provide insight and context for some of the reasons behind advisors suggesting a bridge year, post bac program or even just delaying an application until a better time (and likelihood of a successful outcome).  We hope you will consider the advice it contains carefully and come speak with one of the health professions advisors if you have any questions.
