Medical Panel/Suturing Workshop:
PPS will be holding our annual Medical Panel and Suturing Workshop
Nov. 19th 2009 from 7-9:30pm. This event will begin with the medical
panel question and answer session in Smith room 236 and transition to
the multicultural center (Smith 228) from 8:15-9:30pm for the suturing
portion.
This is a rare opportunity for pre-medical students to
directly ask physicians, medical students, and the director of
admissions (OHSU) questions regarding their pre-professional
endeavors, the applications process, medical school, and what it’s
like to be a physician.
Please come with questions in mind for the
panel. Thereafter, students will be guided to suture pig’s feet by
health professionals; all suturing materials will be provided. In
addition, attendees will be given the opportunity to receive
information on MCAT prep courses from Princeton Review. There will be
food and beverages provided.
