Is there life for a Science Major after Campbell? 2LT Robert D Hales SGA President GA-PCOM March 20, 2006

Say Yes Graduate School Pharmacy School Allied Health  PA  Nursing  Chiropractor Medical School  Osteopathic - DO  Allopathic - MD

What do you I need to do? Plan early…hint start Yesterday  Remember the Big Picture  Start making relationships and networking Will you face some discrimination being from a small school?

Graduate School MS and PhD Find summer programs Find what interest you  Read papers in that field  Find researchers that are leaders in that field and find out the information about the schools they do research

Allied Health Schools Similar requirements to Medical School. Benefits  Fixed schedules  Providing healthcare without all the responsibilities and cost

"Many of us are intimidated by doctors. Well, let me see if I can demystify them for you: A doctor is an ordinary human being just like you and me, except that they're smarter, better and have godlike powers over life and death. Okay?" -Dennis Miller

Osteopathic vs Allopathic Similarities  Application process  Four year program  National boards  State licensing boards  Unlimited rights to practice all phases of medicine (including writing prescriptions) Distinctions  Philosophy  Emphasis on musculoskeletal system  Generalist education/Primary care(Family practice, OB/GYN, Pediatrics, General Internal Medicine)

Philosophy?? Host + Illness = Disease  DO – Treat the Host  MD – Treat the Illness

GA-PCOM Class Profile 2005 Of the 1750 applicants 236 were interviewed 86 matriculated Overall GPA: 3.5 Science GPA: 3.4 MCAT Scores: 25 (average of 8.3 per section) 49% male, 51% female 88% from Georgia and other Southern States Number of applicants up 40% from last year
