MENTORED BY LEADERS IN MEDICINE​

Coaching & Mentoring from Leading Doctors

A Unique Premed Educational Experience For High School Students Unlike Anything That’s Ever Been Offered

Last year nearly 6,000 applicants applied to Queen’s School of Medicine. Only 109 were accepted.  With acceptance rates being so low, you need a clear advantage to get a leg up against the competition. PreMedSKL is based on the SHEMS™ model of showing early and persistent commitment to a career in medicine to the doctors on the medical school admissions committees. 

Shadowships

Shadowships in 9 medical specialties to teach you exactly how doctors think in the clinic.

Habits​

State-of-the-art training so that you develop habits that lead to a successful medical career (We call these MD habits)

Earn Certificates

You will earn completion certificates as you progress through the PreMedSKL curriculum to use for your CV

Mentoring

Our team of hand-picked leading doctors and award-winning medical students will work closely with you in our weekly office hours and in our monthly live sessions to give you personalized support along your journey to becoming a FutureMD

Science Fairs

Because success in science fairs is a strong predictor of success in medicine (and is correlated to admission) our team of clinician-scientists will work closely with you to help you excel in this area.

ACCESSIBLE From anywhere

Tailor made for science enthusiasts and those who want to explore a career in medicine

Each 12-week semester is made for high school students eager to explore what life as a doctor could be.

PreMedSKL is a 9 month curriculum broken up into three 12-week semesters tailor made for students in grades 9-12. In each semester students explore three new medical disciplines (i.e. cardiology, internal medicine and surgery), similar to how medical students rotate through clerkships. This format allows all  students – those who are passionate about medicine and those who are just curious – to get a real sense of what it’s like to be a doctor.

What others are saying about PreMedSKL

I love the program and I love the people who are in it. I can tell that PreMedSKL does a really good job at picking out mentors who are nurturing and who care about the next generation of people who want to go into medicine. I really enjoy the coaching sessions with Dr. Sharma… he pushed us to do better and to participate even if we don’t say the right answer. I really appreciate that.

The mentors are amazing, I love how we can see them multiple times and really get to know them. They give really great advice in terms of applying to residency, time management, and what to expect in medical school. I really enjoyed having the ability to talk to the mentors on a weekly basis.

PreMedSKL makes the goal seem not so unreachable. Hearing from the med students and learning about the different specialties makes it feel like [becoming a doctor] is not a crazy, unattainable, out of reach goal. It’s allowed me to focus more on doing the things that will help me reach that goal and become a good doctor.
