Customer Reviews

Great guide.

I bought this book with the idea of returning to college to do Pre-med, I am currently working on becoming an RN instead. But this book seems to have quality advice. I am glad I bought it. I hope to use it in the future if I want to goto Nurse-Doctor. More reading material cannot hurt.

good for long term

Its not the best for getting into med school but it does give some good tips for lasting pre-med & med school...It focuses more on AFTER med school starting with residency.
