Everyone has advice for future doctors and lawyers. But not all advice is good advice.

In this episode, the GradMissions team continues their conversation about how to strategically prepare for medical or law school long before application season arrives. From choosing a major you actually enjoy to building meaningful experiences outside the classroom, they break down what admissions committees really care about and what they don't.

The team discusses why GPA should remain a top priority, how to evaluate the advice you're receiving, and why shadowing, networking, and exploring the realities of your future profession matter more than checking performative boxes. They also share insights from years of admissions committee experience on common misconceptions, including the myth that leadership titles or pre-law/pre-med club involvement can compensate for weak academics.
