Hey just curious if anyone has done the accelerated review program, as that might be an option for me? Let me know what you guys think of it and if it helps. Thanks!

The ARP has started this semester, but I don't think there were too many people in the inaugural bunch (I heard there were 4 students?). Nevertheless those who I've met have told me the program is great and has definitely prepared them for med school curriculum.

From what I know, it gives you a general overview of the classes you would take here as a med student, so imho, it feels less like going through all that pre-med stuff again, and more like going through watered down medical school coursework to see if you're ready for the real deal. Also, I believe all the professors who teach you in ARP teach courses at the med school too, so it gives you time to meet your med school professors in advance and learn how they teach and how they test, which I think is pretty valuable.

I've never gone through the program myself though, so I guess wait for someone in the program to give you more concrete details. Hope that helps though!

does anybody know how much is the tuition for this review program?

^^I think it's $2,200.00. I'm sure the UMHS official will correct me if I'm mistaken, but that's what I remember it being. The price point is what makes it such a great option.

Man... that's like 1/4 of my med tuition. Pretty good offer guys and gals : )

I was wondering if I can get into ARP program if I am coming with a Computer Engineering degree?

This has been answered on another thread. It is not your major that is causing the prolblem but your lack of pre-med, especially science, requirements. ARP is a review program, not a pre-med program.
