Why I Chose MS in Anatomy at CWRU
Towards the end of my undergraduate experience, I heavily considered taking a gap year to prepare for medical school. However I was informed about this program by one of my professors, and always kept it in the forefront of my mind. So, when it came time to make a decision about my life after graduation, I choose this program because I’ve always had an affinity for anatomy. During my undergraduate years, I took electives such as Osteology, Anatomy, and Vertebrae Biology which really solidified my interests towards anatomy.

After One Year in the Program
Fast forward a year into the program, although it’s a difficult and fast-paced program, I can say with confidence it was the best decision for me. I’ve learned so much, and have gained so much knowledge and experience. Starting this summer, I will have the opportunity to TA for Physician Assistant students and continue to TA for the first year anatomy students in the fall. Ultimately, the end goal for me is getting into medical school, and just after one year of this program I feel so much more prepared for it than before!
