If You're PLME and You Know It!

VouloirPouvoir: there’s a lot of faculty support for PLME students. Each student is assigned to a PLME advisor (there are 4, so it’s about 12-14 students per advising group), and you have regular individual meetings with your advisor, as well as larger class meetings when needed.

I’m going to have a harder time talking about Alpert, as I’m not a current med student yet. However, Alpert is a great med school, and is moving up in the rankings (if that’s what you care about). The patient base is basically all of Rhode Island, since Brown’s the only medical school in the state. I don’t know that much about the medical faculty, but I was able to get clinical research this summer with a pediatric ER doctor, and he’s awesome.

Berke122: you need to apply into PLME as a Brown applicant - there’s no way to apply into it later. Sorry.
