Special Masters Programs (SMPs) can help to guarantee your seat in a U.S. Medical School.
U.S. medical schools are highly competitive, and gaining acceptance is challenging. For students with strong resumes but lower GPAs or MCAT scores, SMPs such as MS/MD and MS/DO programs can help secure a seat in medical school. The Moon Prep team has extensive experience guiding students through this unique pathway.
Guarantees Offered By SMPs
- Guaranteed Medical School Acceptance: Some SMPs offer a guaranteed pathway to medical school as long as all conditional criteria are met, such as a minimum GPA and MCAT score.
- Guaranteed Medical School Interview: SMPs often offer a linkage agreement that may guarantee a student an interview with the respective medical program.
Benefits of SMPs
- SMPs can be a fruitful gap year option, before medical school matriculation. This time can be spent completing outstanding prerequisite courses while boosting clinical and research exposure.
- SMPs offer prospective medical students a multifaceted educational experience, blending medical training with advanced research and specialized study. These programs are academically demanding, offering students the opportunity to demonstrate their readiness to handle the rigors of medical school.
- They also equip students with a broader skill set and deeper understanding of elements of healthcare, preparing them for diverse career paths in clinical care, academia, or research.
- Through partnerships with medical schools, SMPs serve as a stepping stone toward fulfilling students’ dreams of becoming physicians.
SMPs have the potential to make all the difference in a student’s medical school and career trajectories.
