<p>What does it stand for?</p>
<p>Program in liberal medical education.</p>
<p>Are there any plme'ers who post here? </p>
<p>If so, I would love to hear why you applied, how much tougher you think it is to get into the program rather than just getting into Brown, and how you are finding it and your fellow students.</p>
<p>I got into PLME this year, so I do not know specific details about the program or how the "plme'ers" are doing in the program, but I can tell you some other things. Well I applied to PLME because of its great undergraduate school that happened to be my dream school since my childhood, the open curriculum that'll grant me the most freedom to explore as many areas of study as possible, the beautiful campus, the students, Providence, and just about everything else that Brown has.<br>
I do not think the program is any tougher than just getting into Brown. I believe that they're more concerned about your devotion and interest in the field of medicine, because I'm NOT AT ALL academically superior compared to other pre-froshes of Brown. Think carefully about why you want to become a doctor and show your thoughts to the admissions committee.</p>
<p>thanks, djlethal, that was a really thoughtful reply and I appreciate it.</p>
<p>you're very welcome. :) Anytime.</p>
