Eddie studied neuroscience for two years, then studied engineering for another two years at the University of Alberta before being accepted into the Cumming School of Medicine at the University of Calgary. Eddie is in his second year of the three-year MD program offered by the Cumming School of Medicine and is going to begin his clerkship in the coming weeks.

In this episode, we touch on Eddie’s interests and how they ultimately led him to medicine. Eddie discusses how studying engineering as an undergraduate affected his approach to writing the MCAT and provides specific strategies and resources he used when preparing for his medical school interviews. Additionally, Eddie touches on how one’s experiences in medical school can differ when completing a three-year instead of a four-year MD program. I hope you enjoy listening!
