-The name speaks for itself! They are having a conference outside of Chicago this June. I (Tanya) went to the one in DC last year and it was very beneficial to me. I met my advisor there, several non-trad. MD and DO's, fellow students, heard from great speakers, met recruiters from MD/DO schools, Kaplan/TPR, etc...if you can make it this year, it's worth it. Check the website for more details and the speaker line up.

-Amazing pre-med advisor, especially for non-trad.'s. I (Tanya again) hired her and she has been a big help to me. She used to be on the adcom @ Stanford.
