Subject: AAMC Event at Barnard College

Dear Student Activities at Hunter College,

The Network of Pre-Medical Students of Color at Barnard College is hosting
The New York City Regional CBT MCAT Seminar on Nov 3rd. Michelle Sparacino
of the AAMC (Association of American Medical Schools), which controls the
writing, administrating and scoring of the MCAT, will be our speaker at
the seminar, addressing the changes being made to the MCAT so that
everyone has a chance to be prepared. This may be the only chance for
students in the city to get access to a prominent member of the AAMC.

This event will be free for the students, although we are asking your
school to contribute $30 as a registration fee. The seminar will be an
excellent opportunity for pre-meds from all over the city to meet their
peers.

Issues to be address by Michelle Sparacino include but are not limited to

-	Registration
-	Seating, Location, Setting
-	What AAMC does to improve access to minorities in terms of the MCAT
and
med school admission in general
-	Costs of the Computer Based Technology (CBT)
-	How the CBT is different
-	How to best prepare
-	How meds schools use MCAT scores
-	Difficulties and successes minorities have had with the MCAT
-	How to use the resources of our colleges to help us prepare

The event will be
11:00  12:00 with reception to follow
Friday Nov 3rd, 2006
Barnard College
3009 Broadway

We would like to get in contact with some of your pre-med groups on campus
such as The Minority Association of Pre-health Students and The Pre-Med
Club, in order to invite them to this event.

Please let me know whether or not you have any questions.
Thank You
Naila Campbell
