Bachelor of Science - Pre-Professional Medicine

The decision to pursue a health profession can be a challenging and exciting choice. Your educational preparation as an undergraduate is an important key to your overall success. Many students arrive at the university with the goal to become a physician, dentist, or other health professional, but they have little knowledge of what the profession is really like or what the demands are within the profession. Presently only about one-half of applicants to medical school are successful in gaining admission. Because competition is fierce in medicine and other health professions, you should become as familiar as possible with the career to which you are pursuing.
