I love this book! It is complete in its coverage of topics related to the medical school application and admission process. I can easily see prospective applicants picking it up and getting a great overview of what is involved. It is an excellent resource for applicants as they make their way through the gruesome admissions journey. I can also imagine students giving a copy of the book to friends and family members who don't know anything about the process to introduce them to what students will be facing in the weeks and months of their application cycle. It is straightforward in addressing the more nuanced and difficult topics sometimes faced by students. Dr. Gray has established a reputation for being honest and frank with students, and I believe this book continues that legacy. -James Scott Wright, Ed.D., Vice President for Academic Advising, Mappd, LLC, Retired Executive Director, Texas Medical and Dental Schools Application Service, Former Director of Admissions, UT Southwestern Medical School The instruction manual that the premedical community has needed is finally here! This book is a comprehensive resource for all aspects of the application to medical school. In addition to the clear advice that Dr. Gray provides, he offers examples of strong and weak responses and, most importantly, why they are strong or weak. -Leila Amiri, PhD, Assistant Dean for Admissions & Recruitment, University of Illinois Chicago College of Medicine, Co-Chair AAMC BA/MD Affiliate Group The Guide to the Medical School Application Process is a very practical tool for medical school applicants, especially for those new to this journey. Dr. Gray included the hottest topics in the premed world, so reading this book would equip most with everything they need to navigate this journey successfully. Although this book is designed for applicants, the content is very relevant to all premed students. If there were a Premed 101 college course, this would be the textbook! -Joanne Snapp, MSEd, Former Director of Health Professions Advising, University of California, Davis, Former Director of Admissions, Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell What a wonderfully thorough and comprehensive resource! Dr. Gray has provided a very thoughtful and methodical approach to the medical school application. Through a multitude of examples, he demonstrates how to highlight one's passions and strengths while avoiding common pitfalls that are easy to make. The Premed Playbook Guide to the Medical School Application Process is much more than a compilation of dos and don'ts. It's a fun and easy read that will help applicants navigate each part of the process and stay on track during a very busy and sometimes stressful time in their professional journey! -Gregory M. Polites, MD, FACEP, Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine, Chair, Central Subcommittee on Admissions, Washington University School of Medicine The challenge today is there's just too much information available on the topic of admission to medical school. However, Dr. Gray synthesizes the most essential concepts and principles into his latest book with authentic examples to help demystify the entire process. -Joon Kim, EdD, Senior Program Director of Postbaccalaureate Programs, Keck Graduate Institute
