"The Word on Medicine” focused on Medical School Admissions. How does someone become a doctor: What goes into the decision to accept you into our medical school class? What goes into the preparation to become a doctor and what important qualities do medical schools such as MCW use to select those students who will have the privilege of caring for all of you as tomorrow’s doctors? MCW receives over 11,000 applications – how does the Admissions Committee select the best and the brightest to be tomorrow’s doctors? You will find out along with the stories of three amazing current medical students! We have an amazing panel of experts from the Departments of Medicine, Physiology and Surgery; Dr. Hershel Raff was our faculty champion who put this program together. He will be joined by Dr. Jane Machi from the Dept. of Pediatrics; Dr. Alison Kriegel from the Dept. of Physiology; Anton Johnson from the Office of Admissions; and three fantastic current medical students, Max Goodman, Molly Thapar and Sherréa Jones.
