This was one of the most helpful videos I have ever watched related to "why medicine" and "why PLME". Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for this video! I'm going to be applying to Brown PLME this fall. This gave me a lot of insight into how to outline my essays + really tell that story to distinguish myself

[@jacindapaf8076]

One of the few really helpful college videos I’ve even. And you are monetizing it, so hats off to you.

Thank you for making these videos! Covid-19 and my depression basically decimated my chances of being accepted into certain colleges so I'm hoping these will help my essays become something special.

Hi! This was a really great video I learned a lot. One question I have is what sort of programs within PLME make it different from Brown undergrad or some other med program?

[@leonzhaoo]

PLME undergrad is pretty similar to regular Brown undergrad. The main difference is that you are already accepted to Brown's med school. There are also some other perks such as plme-specific events or funding opportunities.
