How do I prepare for med school, dental school, OT school, or other healthcare programs?

First-year students often want to know when they should start studying for a professional school exam like the MCAT, LSAT, or DAT if it is required for their program. It's way too soon for that! But it's not too soon for these keys to success:

Engage with courses and get help when you don't understand. The Success Center has excellent tutoring and academic resources, all free to Creighton students.
Form relationships with your professors. They WANT to help, so take advantage of office hours and appointments.
Make the most of school breaks with service, job shadowing, and related work.
Meet with a pre-professional advisor in your first year, but meet with your academic/RSP advisor first.
Watch your e-mail for information from CARS at the start of the Fall semester.
