Product Description

This is a practical, how-to guide towards becoming a medical doctor from an insider's perspective. It addresses all the strategies needed to succeed as a medical school candidate by providing a glimpse of life as a medical student through real ward experiences. It provides a thorough explanation of the different medical fields, and explores issues such as lifestyle, salary and competition for residency and fellowship positions for each speciality. It outlines options for non-traditional students seeking a medical career, namely older candidates, ethnic minorities, economically disadvantaged students, and members of the Armed Forces. The book should be of essential reading in particular to students at university, further education colleges and sixth form students.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Pre-Med Guide, Jan 4 2006

By B. Ly - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: So You Want To Be A Doctor? (Paperback)

Dr. Malladi's guide to getting into medical school is an excellent resource for those who are beginning to think about medical school or those who are currently in the process.

I purchased this book in the midst of completing my secondary applications and wished it had been available when I first started the entire process. The author gives sound advice from the perspective of a recent medical student and the information is full of keys for being a successful candidate.

I found Chapter Six ("Medical School Interviews") the most valuable. The author gave excellent suggestions on how to answer some of the most-asked interview questions. I used many of her suggestions which made my two medical school interviews far less intimidating.

I have been accepted into one school (so far) and I credit this book for giving me the edge and confidence I needed. I recommend purchasing this book during any stage of the premed process.
