COSMOS Biomed cluster

Applying to College

If you get into the biomed cluster at COSMOS does it make a really big impact on your college applications? Especially if you want to get into a Premed program?

You might get extra points for the UCs. I remember when UCSD had the point system, it was on the list. UCSD is no longer in the point system but it gives you an idea what’s important to the UCs, well at least UCSD.

So is it no longer as impactful on college apps? particularly premed/ bsmd programs? @DrGoogle

I’m not sure what your question is. Are you applying to BS/MD program. For undergraduate it helps. But impact full, probably not. So not sure what you mean.

Like will it have a big positive impact on my college application to a top tier BSMD program or will it not really make a difference? @DrGoogle

A single summer camp may not help. But a continuous effort and passion to explore more about what you have learned in the camp during the HS years will help the college application.

Thank you @coolweather I actually really want to go to a BSMD program. Do you have any advice for me regarding that? That is why I am asking about summer programs

I don’t know a lot. It requires demonstrated strong EC.
