AME Facilitated Sessions | Session 2: Cracking the Code – What the ADCOM Wants

In this week’s session, Dr. Darren Jackson and Dr. David Taylor break down the real questions pre-meds are asking: What do admissions committees actually want?

Together, they review case studies and student profiles, explore myths from online forums like Student Doctor Network and Reddit, and uncover the truth about:
📌How MCAT scores factor into competitiveness
📌“Hard” majors vs. “easy” majors and their impact on GPA
📌The weight of science GPA compared to total GPA
📌The role of personal identity and passions (arts, music, hobbies) in shaping a professional narrative

The AME team also shares insights on timeline planning for your application cycle, realistic self-assessment, and how to align your personal statement and school list with your professional identity and goals.

✨ New episodes of AME Facilitated Sessions air every Monday at 1 PM ET.
