Pre-med advising

<p>Since no one replied to this in another post...</p>

<p>I saw in earlier (like , years earlier) that one of the biggest complaints about Berkeley pre-med was the poor advising.
Is this still true? How is the pre-med advising at Berkeley?
When I am trying to keep my GPA afloat and study for MCAT, how much help will/can I get on my application and interviews? </p>

<p>someone please reply? thanks.</p>

<p>bump, please.
Someone has to have done pre-med here!</p>

<p>lol I’m ex-pre-med.</p>

<p>they actually do mock med school interviews, review your personal essays, have a letter service where they will hold all of your rec letters until you apply.</p>

<p>the main premed advisor is Juhn Verano and he will meet with you if you are an upperclassmen thinking of applying to med school. otherwise you can meet with a peer advisor as i have several times.</p>

<p>they also have copies of the msar, mcat prep books etc at the career center.</p>

<p>overall, i think premed at berkeley is what you make of the resources available to you. yes, the competition is fierce, but it is not impossible to succeed if you try.</p>
