I intended to take at least one gap year between undergrad and medical school, but as I was looking to apply and taking my MCAT, I realized I was not confident in my application, nor felt ready for the rigorous academic requirements of medical school. After talking with my undergrad advisors, they recommended a few different post-baccalaureate programs to fill my gap year and further prepare me for a successful future in medical school. The MMP program at MCW was one of these programs and was particularly striking because it offers the opportunity to take first year medical school classes alongside medical students and for a grade toward a GPA. I felt that my success in these classes would prove to myself I was capable and ready for medical school. Additionally, the small cohort size and hands-on advisors were huge for me by providing consistent and personalize support from the moment I applied, throughout the year program, and after as I completed my secondary applications and medical school interviews. The relationships I formed with my peers, instructors, and advisors are relationships I still value while in medical school at MCW now.

This allowed me plenty of MCAT study time while still challenging myself in class. Ultimately, through the MMP program I gained the confidence and sense of readiness to apply to medical school and continue using and refining the skills I learned.
