Drexel Why Medicine Essay

<p>Hi!
Does anyone know what the word limit on the Drexel Why medicine essay is? There really is no specification on the application site...and since you have a strict time limit to complete it, i would hate to discover that I have to add/delete parts from my essay.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I believe last year it was 1 page single spaced. My essay was about 700 words long. If you have any questions about the program, feel free to msg me. I was accepted into all 3 undergrads and ultimately chose Villanova. I absolutely love it so far. Really nice people, great campus, close to Philly, but not too close, fantastic professors, a good number of people in the program to interact with/study with and the adviser, Dr. Russo, is absolutely amazing. She’s always on top of things, unlike some of the other advisers for the other undergrads, and she’s incredibly friendly.</p>

<p>Which other undergraduate schools did you apply to with the Drexel College of Medicine Program? Why did you ultimately choose Villanova?</p>

How selective is drexel with these bs/md programs? Does it matter which undergrad you apply to to get admitted ?</p>

<p>They’re all equally selective with around a 2-3% acceptance rate. I suppose Leigh and villanova programs are a bit more selective by the nature of the undergrads which are better than drexel undergrad.</p>

<p>ohhh okay! Thanks</p>
