Best-Selling Author and Harvard MD Announces 3^rd Edition of Acclaimed ‘The Medical School Admissions Guide’

Sharing the week-by-week plan that got her into Harvard Medical School, Dr. Miller’s ‘The Medical School Admissions Guide’ has become a global best seller. Today, following a recent update, Miller announces the release of the book’s third edition.

For Immediate Release

Washington, DC – US medical schools have one of the most competitive graduate admissions processes in the world. With less than half of the 40,000 annual US medical school applicants gaining acceptance each year, understanding the complex admissions process and getting an edge over other candidates has never been more vital. Dr. Suzanne M. Miller has already helped pave the way for thousands of successful applicants with her acclaimed book ‘The Medical School Admissions Guide,’ the best-selling medical school admissions guide on Amazon for years. Today, she is delighted to announce the release of ‘The Medical School Admissions Guide’s’ new (third) edition.

‘The Medical School Admissions Guide: A Harvard MD’s Week-by-Week Admissions Handbook, 3^rd Edition,’ offers a step-by-step guide for how to excel in the competitive, complex, and often stressful medical school admissions process. Given the ever-changing nature of medical school admissions, the guide contains information on the new MCAT2015, recent application changes, and additional examples from successful applicants. Dr. Miller has written the guide to be useful for anyone applying to medical school, from a college undergraduate to a non-traditional pre-med who has been out of school for years. The guide’s information comes as a result of the author’s decade of experience as a Harvard pre-med tutor, admissions interviewer, and medical school admissions consultant. Dr. Miller is also a practicing emergency physician and faculty member of multiple universities.

“I remember how stressful it was to be a pre-med. At the time of my application, I had wished there was a book that could break up the monstrous process looming ahead of me into digestible bits, while also providing real-life application examples from previous medical school applicants. Thus, I wrote ‘The Medical School Admissions Guide,’ the book I had wanted so desperately when I was applying to medical school,” says Dr. Miller, who has now written five books on pre-med and medical admissions topics.

She continues, “If you follow this guide, you will be prepared for every step in the process, hit each deadline with ease, and create your best application.”

Getting the edge has never been more important,” she adds.

Reviews

‘The Medical School Admissions Guide, 3rd Edition’ is already receiving stellar reviews:

“Buying this book is one of the most cost-effective things any pre-med could possibly do. Dr. Miller's week-by-week guide sets itself apart from other books in this category by breaking the application process down in to weekly, bite-size steps, that are easy to follow yet add up to an impressive final application. This third edition has kept pace with the ever-changing requirements (MCAT 2015!!) and deadlines of the admissions process. Dr. Miller's personal experience and expertise shine through and the examples provided - of personal statements, AMCAS work/activities, secondary essays, and letters of intent - are all from real-life applicants - many are from traditional pre-meds but also a good number are from non-traditional applicants. Seeing how a diverse group of applicants approach and frame their application 'story' has been priceless. It also has sections on DO schools, foreign schools, military and public health service options. I could not recommend this book highly enough.”

“The guide is for both traditional and nontraditional applicants, I myself was a nontraditional applicant, so I found the abundance of examples to be helpful -- most books seem to be written ex de facto for traditional premeds… with this guide alone, I was able to keep pace with the full process of the AMCAS (primary, secondary, interview brain storming, and post interview strategies). At first, the timeline and examples in the book may seem daunting to emulate, but this reflects how competitive and how diverse top medical schools expect from their applicants to be. And on each of my five interviews, I met applicants who had backgrounds just as grandiose as those in the book, so it's a good barometer for your competition/cohort. Now that I've been through the process, was sent 8 interview invites, attended 5 (accepted into all 5 programs, all US MD), and offered a few scholarships, I'd say this book did a good job at painting my narrative in a cogent manner to argue my admittance and keeping me informed about the "little things" that matter which I never considered. I would highly recommend this book for any premeds close to applying in need of an actual guide of how it really is, and how you're really expected to put your application together at a professional level.”
