Present a real medical case to a panel of physicians and surgeons. Build the clinical depth, research exposure, and communication skills that move applications out of the maybe pile.
BS/MD and accelerated programs are not selecting for performance alone. They are locking in students before the traditional filters of GPA and MCAT have even occurred. That is a risk for them. The only way they mitigate that risk is by identifying students who already think, engage, and operate closer to a medical trainee than a typical applicant.
Students who make it through demonstrate longitudinal clinical involvement, increasing responsibility, and direct exposure to clinical reasoning. Depth is not a buzzword. It is a measurable difference that shows up in your essays, your interviews, and in every line of your application.
Clinical experience too shallow. Shadowing is the floor, not the ceiling. If your clinical section is a single line, it is not doing work for you in a competitive applicant pool.
No research project. Not a publication — anything. A literature review, a survey, a database analysis. Something that shows you understand how medical knowledge is built and tested.
A generic personal statement. Adcoms know in thirty seconds whether the person writing has actually been inside medicine. Insider access is visible in every sentence.
A poor interview. You worked this hard to earn the room. The only way not to throw it away is to put yourself in front of real clinical audiences before the stakes are that high.
Four weekly online modules — designed by physicians — teach you how to analyze a patient case, construct a differential diagnosis, build a treatment plan, and defend it with the literature. Each module guides you through the next section of your Grand Rounds presentation.
By week four every student has a complete, physician-informed Grand Rounds presentation. Not a summary or a slide deck. A structured clinical case presentation built to the standard physicians use when presenting to their peers.
In week five, students present live to an actual panel of physicians and surgeons who provide live verbal and written clinical feedback. The student who delivers the strongest Grand Rounds is selected for the research mentorship prize.
A formal, physician-verified certificate documenting six virtual clinical hours — applicable to your CV and Common App activity section. Backed by the physicians who evaluated your presentation.
A polished, physician-informed case presentation you own and keep. A documented artifact of clinical reasoning that goes far beyond anything a shadowing log can show on an application.
Verbal and written feedback from actual physicians on how you presented, how you reasoned through the case, and how you held yourself in front of a clinical audience. Most students never receive this until residency.
Based on your performance before the physician panel, you have the option to request a letter of recommendation — grounded in direct clinical observation, not just a name vouching for your potential.
The student who delivers the strongest Grand Rounds presentation is offered a direct working relationship with a physician panelist — from project design all the way to a submission-ready abstract.
Not dependent on wet lab access. Not contingent on finding a PI on your own. A physician-led research project from idea to abstract, with your name on it.
"A research credential that changes the conversation in every application you submit for the rest of your premed career."
Work directly with your physician mentor to identify a clinically relevant question and design the methodology from the ground up.
Physician-supervised literature review, data analysis, and manuscript structuring — without requiring laboratory access or institutional affiliation.
A completed abstract ready for peer-reviewed journal submission. The research credential most premed students spend years trying to acquire.
Most programs only speak of BS/MD or BS/DO. You have a real plan that many do not know. Most people are only considering BS/MD and not considering how to regroup if it does not work out. The safety net is very important.
We gained a clear, organized roadmap of the premed journey. The depth of information shared is truly invaluable, and much of it would have been extremely difficult to access or interpret on our own. We are now focusing on meaningful experiences rather than trying to do everything.
Post-workshop I am securing a research lab and taking core requirement classes over the summer to graduate early. If practicing medicine as soon as possible is meaningful to you, this course gives you a clear path on what to do next.
Free. No fee. Spots are limited by cohort size to ensure every student has time to present before the panel.
If accepted, tuition is $349.99 for the full five-week program. Fast Track Intensive students are automatically accepted.
If you are currently enrolled in Fast Track Intensive, you are automatically accepted. You also receive an exclusive 45-minute group office hours session with Dr. Samarrai before the live panel — ask anything about your presentation, your clinical reasoning, or your delivery. You will walk into that room prepared.
Yes, completely. No application fee. Tuition of $349.99 applies only if you are selected. The first ten applicants also receive free access to Fast Track Foundations regardless of selection outcome.
The Symposium is designed for high school students targeting BS/MD or accelerated pathways, and early undergraduate students actively building their premed CV. If your student is preparing for BS/MD applications or early assurance programs, this is the right stage.
No prior research experience is required. The four physician-designed modules teach everything needed to structure and present a medical case from scratch. Some exposure to a clinical setting is helpful but not a prerequisite for applying.
Every participant receives the full clinical hours certificate, their finalized presentation, live and written physician feedback, and the option to request a letter of recommendation. Every student who presents walks away with something that moves their application forward.
Yes. All four training modules are online and self-paced. The live Grand Rounds panel is conducted virtually. The six clinical hours certificate reflects the virtual clinical education format and is applicable to CVs and the Common App accordingly.
Fast Track to MD is led by Dr. Samarrai, a practicing surgical subspecialist who completed medical school at 23 and has served on admissions, ranking, and selection committees. The physician panel includes practicing physicians and surgeons — including an orthopedic surgeon — who evaluate presentations using real clinical education standards.
Yes. The $349.99 founding cohort rate reflects inaugural pricing. As the program builds documented student outcomes and expands the physician panel, tuition for future cohorts will increase. This rate does not repeat.
The students who stand out in BS/MD applicant pools have moved closer to the reality of medicine earlier than their peers. The application is free. The opportunity is real.
