Description

The Weinberg Student Alumni Engagement program invites you to participate in an exciting lunchtime panel discussion.

Come hear from WCAS alumni who are now MDs on the choices they made undergrad, whether you need to be pre-med to go to med school, what they would do differently if they had to do it all over again.
