Testimonials
"The LSMU PreMed course I participated in was an excellent way to get to know some of the students and teachers. Overall, the course helped me prepare in basic Chemistry and Biology. The teachers were excellent in helping with problems and explaining more complex tasks. I thoroughly enjoyed the duration of the course due to the friendly nature and passionate work ethic of the teachers. " - Jalin Lara Moehlenbrock
"So the PreMed course was great. I liked how both the teachers had quizzes. I liked how in Biology we got tested after going through the presentations. I loved Chemistry that in the middle of the presentations the teacher asked what she just explained. Made it clearer what we were going through. I appreciated that all the materials were there for us to read on our own. I liked the calendar. Helped me keep track of my progress and how much was left. Overall very satisfied with the course." - Shad Rahman
"Very interesting and informative course. The Lecturers were extremely helpful and friendly. Would 100% recommend it! I had so much fun in PreMed online class and have learned so many new things that have only encouraged me to be a doctor even more than before. Thank you to everyone!" - Amare Lawgaw
