1ST GENERAL BODY MEETING
Wednesday,
April 15th, 8:00 – 9:00 pm PC Theater
We have
three guest speakers for GBM1:
1) Brian Zeglen, the Director of Admissions at UCSD Medical
School. If there is
anyone who knows what it takes to get into medical school, its this guy. Learn
what medical schools are looking for in applicants and the do's and dont's of
applying.
He will have a short lecture and then be answering all of our questions.
2) Princeton Review will be dropping by to tell us about their deals
on the MCAT and they may have some prizes for us.
3) Carlo Flascha, current UCSD undergraduate student, current AP Stats tutor at
Preuss, current Director of Tutoring Services (DOTS) at the Academic Success
Program (ASP), current PASS member, and teaching aficionado will be chatting
with us about volunteer opportunities with ASP (Academic Success Program). ASP
is committed to providing free retention programs and services that help
undergraduates financially, socially, and academically. As a tutor, you would
help many undergrads stay in college.
As always you may pick up your shirt and pay your dues.
Food and drink will be provided!
