Over 12 weeks, this course will introduce the learner to fundamental topics in medicine, similar to those encountered during the first two years of medical school. Just as importantly, we help you to improve your learning skills, build a C.V., and create a personal statement, that will be a very important part of your future medical school application.

Weekly LIVE lectures are performed by an academic medical physician (M.D.)!

Basic Science Topics include:

• Anatomy
• Cardiac Physiology
• Pulmonary Physiology
• Renal Physiology
• Endocrine Physiology
• Gastro-Intestinal Physiology
• Biochemistry

Disease Topics Include:

• Heart Disease
• Diabetes
• Cancer
• STD's
• Alcohol, other Drugs

Bonus Guest Lecture: "The Med School Prep", by Andres Jimenez, M.D., author of the book, "Getting into today's highly competitive US medical school", and creator of the studentsomedicine.com website.  In this lecture Dr. Jimenez will prep you on everything you need to know about preparing to get into medical school!

This course will proceed in a weekly format, including weekly LIVE lectures by a physician educator, and follows a Social Constructivism Pedagogy for online learning.

In addition to instruction in the above topics, this course will prepare the premed learner to create a Curriculum Vitae (C.V.), and a personal statement used for entrance into medical school. The earlier the premed student knows how to create these, the better prepared they will be to add items that will increase their shot at getting into medical school one day.
