The term also means that you are embarking on a specific course of study including gaining experience outside the classroom aimed at preparing you to be a competitive and well-rounded applicant to health professional school.<\/p>\n<p>Our office serves as a resource center for you throughout your journey in pursuing a career in the health professions. We encourage you to explore the world of pre-health through self-reflection, skill development, and experiential learning opportunities within our office, the broader USC campus, and the wider Los
