Fast Track Facts:
Medical school enrollment hit an all-time high: 100,723 students in 2025 (If you think AI is making less students want to be doctors, you’re wrong).
Only 5 days left to apply: The Clinical Scholars Grand Rounds Symposium
Shadowing is the bare minimum for a premed applicant, especially a BS/MD applicant. What moves your application is clinical depth. Like the ability to reason through a case, defend a plan, and communicate the way a physician does.
That is exactly what the Clinical Scholars Grand Rounds Symposium builds. Created by a team of highly unique dual-degree physicians and surgeons, who have been in your shoes already. In five weeks, you construct a full Grand Rounds patient case presentation, present it live to a panel of physicians and surgeons, and walk away with a physician-verified 6-hour clinical certificate, written clinical feedback, and a letter of recommendation opportunity. You also get to meet and network with this unique panel of doctors!
Not only that, but the Grand Prize for the winning presentation is a personalized research mentorship track with one of the panelists designed to lead you to a publication-ready abstract.
So if you’ve been cold-emailing to get research with no luck, here’s another opportunity you can take advantage of!
I wish there was a chance like this when I was a premed.
