This book has incredible insights like "manage your time effectively" and "choose a quiet place to study." Also it's totally aimed at people who knew at the age of 15 that they wanted to be doctors. It has nothing to say to vaguely non-traditional students -- people who are coming to medicine after being out of college a few years, or not being science majors, or even just in their last few years of college.

Of all the medical school admission books I've seen, this one seems to have everything you need to guide you through the entire process from begining to end. There are great chapters on the admissions process, the MCAT, and especially on the kinds of extracurricular activities you need to make you a better candidate than other applicants. After reading Dr. Goliszek's book, I felt as though I had an advantage over my classmates.

After reviewing several medical school admissions books for premedical students, I would have to rate this one among the best. In addition to the regular topics such as premedical education, choosing the best colleges, the MCAT, medical school interviews, finances, etc., Dr. Goliszek's book also includes inside information other books omit and a wealth of resources that students can refer to again and again for advice that will make them much better applicants. Highly recommended.

Exactly as I say in the title. And the medical school process is a lot more competitive than he makes it seem in the book. The part about the schools is a little outdated.

I thought it was a decent book, it offers alot of the basic information that someone would need to know when applying. I was looking for some more "insider secrets", but it really didn't have a ton of them.

I found this book to be very useful, especially the areas dealing with coursework and activities important in helping you get admitted. Dr. Goliszek's book is making its rounds at school. I've gone through other medical school books, but this one seems to have everything I need.
