5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource, December 31, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Official Student Doctor Network Medical School Admissions Guide (Paperback)
The Student Doctor Network has really went out of its way to create a tome for the complicated medical school admissions process. It's broken into 11 categories, each containing a series of small articles written by different and appropriate authors. They range from discussions on what to focus on in premed studies to actually build a decent resume, to breaking down the differences in allopathic, osteopathic, podiatry, and Caribbean schools. There are also very useful chapters on money matters and med school statistics.

The most helpful chapter for me has been the one that focuses on the actual application process. All of the authors speak from experience and their advice is actually constructive and not recycled tips like I've found in similar books. I intend to put their plan for setting up a physician shadowing into action. I'm also thankful for their chapter about choosing a major. I've read in so many books that colleges may prefer a non-science undergraduate,...Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, could be better, November 4, 2007
This review is from: The Official Student Doctor Network Medical School Admissions Guide (Paperback)
The SDN book is a great asset. However,the information it provides will be mostly useful to those that have absolutely no idea about the whole med school application process. I purchased the book after I had applied, and before my interview. It didn't do much for me. I got some broad interview topic ranges, but I still needed the internet. You might be better off by reading the SDN website and checking out their interview database. But for purposes of supporting the great website studentdoctor.net, I would say, go for it. It's a great support site so I would not mind purchasing a book affiliated with the site, that helps support the site. Also donate directly on SDN. Go STUDENT DOCTOR NETWORK!!! whoooooooooo

4.0 out of 5 stars Helpful even after entry to medical school, May 9, 2009
This review is from: The Official Student Doctor Network Medical School Admissions Guide (Paperback)
This book offers tips on increasing yor chances of being accepted to medical school including things such as volunteerism and community involvement where many candidates fall short. It also discusses different medical school options including the Caribbbean option which is a good alternative if you cannot get into a reputable US medical school.
The author also presents a section on success stories and frequently asked questions that are helpful in guiding you through medical school and residency onto becoming a practcing doctor.
Although not comprehensive as one other reviewer indicated it is a useful guide for any one intending to enter a medical career.
By the way, my purchase was as a gift to someone looking to gain acceptance to medical school and their feedback was quite positive.
