Why AED?

Joining AED made me realize that there really is such a thing as work-life balance. Beyond supporting one another academically, whether it’s through MCAT advice or navigating difficult classes, we never fail to have a good time together and enjoy each other’s company. I am confident that the relationships I’ve established in AED will support me tremendously throughout my career as a physician.
