Dear Dr. Meyers and others, I was wondering if you would please give me advice on the best time for me to apply for admission to the fall 2005 SMP. At the...
Dear Ben, Please refer to my earlier, detailed email which clearly outlines what our academic requirements are and our application deadlines. You would be...

Dear Laurie, Not applying to medical school has no effect on getting into the SMP. However, I think we should have a direct conversation (email is fine) about...
To Whom It May Concern: I received my B.S in biology a year ago with a GPA of 3.0 and I am currently a second year master student with a GPA of 3.62. I have ...
I had a low GPA and a low MCAT, (3.0, 28) and essentially got in because i really really wanted to do so. (read as I whined and harassed the administrators...
... Andrew, Thanks for your comments; my current master program is in biology. I did apply to 8 medical schools, however when I saw my MCAT score I withdrew...
Hello, if you are ultimately interested in attending a US allopathic (ie. MD degree granting) medical school, I personally would work on improving that MCAT...
Michael's advice is exactly what I would have said. Unless you're retaking the MCAT this April, there's little point in applying to the SMP this year. I...
Dr. Myers, I appreciate your respond and your time. I am currently studying to re-take the MCAT in April and I will also apply early to the SMP. I will not...
Finally got the thing online and running, took a bit of effort but at least it is working well now. My last cam didn't have sound or proper video, but this one...

The same comments as previously would apply.... we do hold spots for people awaiting April MCATs. There are quite a few openings left when those scores come...
Hi Dr. Myers, I am a 4th yr. undergrad at Penn with a 3.1 GPA and a 37S MCAT. Do you think the disparity between my GPA and my MCAT score will raise suspicion...
Hi Sean, I think the SMP was designed for students just like you. Your outstanding MCAT score shows that you have the intelligence and test-taking skills for...
Dear Sean, I'm not sure what you think we'd suspect, but no, the disparity isn't a problem. We have many students with good MCATs and lower grades from good...
I think mike should take over answering these questions and give Dr. M a break! :-) Adam Myers <Physiology@...> wrote:Dear Sean, I'm not sure what you...
Haha...I'm just trying to add a current Physio's perspective on some of these questions. I am by no means an expert like Dr. M. so take my advice lightly....

Dear RD, Did you mean you're applying to the SMP? If so, you might be competitive as an applicant; I'd need to see your whole application to say for sure. 31...
Thanks for your advice. I thought that my GPA in pharmacy school would have off-set my low undergrad GPA but apparantly not. So I have some more work to do...

YL, I suggest that you apply soon. As for the MCAT, that's a complex question. You should take it when you think you can do better, first of all. Second, if...
