5.0 out of 5 stars review, June 21, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Kaplan Newseek Medical School Admissions Adviser 2001 (Medical School Admissions Advisor, 2001) (Paperback)

This book is very frank about what it takes to get into med school. It is, at times, inspiring in that it made me want to pursue a career in medicine even more. But, the book is also very honest about the difficulty of getting into school as well as the not-so-fabulous aspects of being a doctor. I think it's a must-read for any serious pre-med.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Resource, October 5, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Kaplan/Newsweek Medical School Admissions Adviser 2000 (Paperback)

This is a great book to use if you want honest, useful information on medical schools. Maria Lofftus, the author, was on the admissions committee at UC San Diego Medical School and does a great job of breaking down the process. One drawback: the book is hard to navigate through.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not much help., December 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Kaplan Newsweek Medical School Admissions Adviser 1999 (Paperback)

Unfortunatly, for those who are attempting to go to medical school, this book will not be much help. I found it to be extremely general and any information present in this book you either already know, or is completely useless.
