The AMSA Pre-Med Newsletter: "The Medical Examiner"

The goal of the AMSA Pre-Med Newsletter is to educate all pre-meds at UCLA on current events in the medical field. In addition, the newsletter will serve as a bulletin board for pre-med events, quality pre-med advice, as well as advertisements for job and research opportunities.

First Issue is Published!

We are happy to announce publication of the first issue of The Medical Examiner, the innovative newsletter, written by students and published online by the Student Life Action Committee of the AMSA Pre-Medical Chapter at UCLA.

We have constructed this newspaper as a tool with which pre-medical students can navigate through the exciting, yet sometimes overwhelming medical school preparation process. Covering topics such as MCAT information, research opportunities, current events, and first hand accounts and advice, we hope to instill within the students a sense of confidence, organization and self-efficacy in their ability to pursue and achieve their aspirations in the medical field. We intend to create a forum in which students can both provide and seek advice from their fellow pre-med peers.
