More Than Just BS

About the Book

Applying to combined BS/MD programs really, really stinks - unless you're guided by the right person. That's what Jayson - a student who got into some of the nation's top BS/MD programs at Brown, Caltech, and Penn
State through countless nights of energy drinks - realized when he was in high school. This book fixes that. More Than
Just BS is Jayson's unique, tested, foolproof plan to acing the apps for these crazily competitive medical programs. It's a resume-building preparation plan, a step-by-step guide to the application process, plus a safe haven for students: it's got checklists, summaries, clever shortcuts, sneaky tips, and tons of cheeky remarks.

About the Author

Jayson Marwaha is a student in Brown University's Program in Liberal Medical Education - an 8-year combined BS/MD program. Given his natural disposition as a worrywart (he refuses to stop worrying about the ending of Inception until Inception 2 comes out to clear things up), he made a point to apply only to guaranteed medical programs. With his time in college he has managed to: • Found and run an NGO (and haughtily introduce himself as a daring "entrepreneur" at parties), • Write a book, • Study abroad, • Take weird classes, • Quickly pack well beyond a Freshman 15, • And just have a great time in college. With his free time on Sunday mornings, in the cafeteria over a plate of gelatinous scrambled eggs, Jayson loves to read. His favorite work of fine American literature, you ask? ...well, this one.
