"I can easily say that it has been one of the most wonderful experiences I've ever had. I've had so much fun meeting new people and learning more about medicine. Before coming into this program I was thinking about becoming a doctor but I wasn't 100% sure, but now I am sure I want to become a doctor. This summer program was educational, yet very fun. If you are a student who is interested in medicine and Cornell, I would definitely recommend this program for you. PCEP will certainly be the highlight of my summer vacation."

"I am quite keen about gaining more information regarding medical studies, how my surrounding is going to be within the next upcoming 5 years and so on...

I also find this preparatory program so useful to me, where I spent my free time gaining information and life experience."

"My interest in Medicine has been developing since a young age, having been exposed to it since childhood. The research aspects of this field appeals to me greatly and my love for science only adds to this. The idea of helping people and being able to incite change, however small, has been the most important contributing factor."

"Ever since I was a little kid, I've been interested in medicine, and it only grew over time. Through my middle school years, and the beginning of high school, I read as much as I could about everything, but prioritizing medicine and surgery."
