Host Devin Hubbard catches up with Drew Caddell, an alumnus of the Joint Department and a current first-year student of UNC-Chapel Hill's School of Medicine.

For biomedical engineering students who are considering medical school, Drew covers how the mindset between the two academic programs is similar, gives advice on what to expect when applying to school as a BME, and shares his experience with deciding where to apply. Drew also explained the benefits of taking a gap year between his undergraduate degree and applying for medical school.
