Our Alumni Have Gone On to 40 of the Top 50 U.S. MD Programs Medical schools want 3 things: (1) healthcare exposure, (2) GPA/MCAT, and (3) AAMC competencies. When you shadow with Atlantis, you improve all 3. As a bonus, you get to do this while studying abroad during school breaks. 1. Best Healthcare Exposure: Compared to typical clinical experiences, Atlantis shadowing brings far greater depth, breadth, quantity, and intercultural perspective: the four traits medical schools value in any healthcare experience. 2. Focus More on Grades: Extracurriculars over breaks, better grades during your semester. Most students don’t prioritize GPA/MCAT enough; doing Atlantis shadowing over break accomplishes so much extracurricular-wise that you can cut out some activities during the year. 3. Show AAMC Competencies To Med Schools: Atlantis shadowing helps you refine and showcase most of the competencies on which medical schools assess applicants, creating powerful stories for your applications and interviews.
