Welcome to JourneyToTheDoubleDoc-- podcast edition! Our names are Maya and Kenneth, and we are M1s in the Harvard-MIT and Penn MD-PhD programs. Originally a video, we created this episode to discuss the first major step in applying to MD and MD-PhD programs: the primary application! Specifically, in part 2, we discuss the personal statement and why MD-PhD essay.

JourneyToTheDoubleDoc was created to democratize access to MD-PhD advising resources, and we love to hear from prospective MD-PhD students. If you have any question for us, feel free to tweet us @KennethHPham @MayaTalukdar or e-mail us at [email protected]!
