#BeatThatTest
2 p.m. Eastern Time
As you may be aware, scoring well on a standardized test for admission to programs leading to health professions requires more than just content knowledge and application. Since there are timed sections and hours required to pass, these exams also demand speed and stamina from their examinees. Learn valuable strategies and insights to help you ace your exams.
Diversity Session 2: Navigating Health Professions Admissions Post-SCOTUS Decision
4 p.m. Eastern Time
The Supreme Court made a landmark ruling that drastically curtailed, if not outright banned, the use of affirmative action in college admissions. The justices decided by a vote of 6-3 that the equal protection clause of the Constitution, which forbids racial discrimination by government agencies, was violated by the admissions procedures utilized by Harvard College and the University of North Carolina.
The ruling has left many prehealth advisors and students with questions about implications for health professions admissions. The sessions will provide attendees with guidance on how to proceed. This discussion follows our first Diversity Session<https://click.email.aamc.org/?qs=314394f4548e4d840132718ab66c590de265bb64c794b5aa545604dba808af641dee163b857265a84c30c0da1a4003adb339955093cb5b96>, which dispelled common misconceptions within the admissions community. Secure your spot now and prepare to shine in your health professions journey!
