Episode 34: Exclusive Interview with Leadership at the AAMC

I'm grateful for the opportunity to bring you the voices of some of the leadership members at the AAMC.  You will hear from Dr. Geoffrey Young, the Senior Director of Student Affairs and Programs, and Mr. Patrick Fritz, the Senior Director of AMCAS.  This conversation brings you into how the AAMC has been working to adapt to the changes and disruptions brought by the Coronavirus pandemic.  They also provide us with tips and advice about the AMCAS application, including common pitfalls that can cause delays in the processing of applications.  We reference a lot of resources and opportunities so be sure to check out the links in the show notes. I hope this conversation brings you some reassurance that we all care and are thinking about our applicants during all of this uncertainty.       RESOURCES Understanding the Application Process Coronavirus (COVID-19) and AMCAS AMCAS Application AMCAS Student Services  Monday-Friday, 9 a.m.-7 p.m. ET Closed Wednesday, 3-5 p.m. ET [email protected] 202-828-0600 AMCAS Tools and Tutorials - includes some recently recorded AMCAS webinars Alternative Grading Resource Medical School Admissions Requirements Guide (MSAR) AAMC Fee Assistance Program Benefits: Reduced registration fee, from $320 to $130, for MCAT exams.
