MARIE RHOADS

Education:

BS from UCLA 2020 in Neuroscience, Masters from CWRU in 2022

Attending Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine (Class of 2026)

I attended a large university for undergrad and never felt that I had the appropriate pre-med counseling to reach my goals. I also no longer felt confident in my academic abilities and wanted to make sure medical school was still the best option for me. The MSMP program provided such useful education and advising resources that I felt very ready to apply to medical school. I attribute the study habits I learned in the program to my success when retaking the MCAT (an 8 point increase). With my valuable experience in the program, I was able to have options when it came to choosing a medical school, and I chose the one with a smaller atmosphere in which I would have opportunities for similar advising that I received in the MSMP program.
