Practical examinations are given throughout the Review Course. OSSS hires medical students to serve as instructors and teaching assistants for our structured undergraduate and high school premedical enrichment programs which offer instruction and reinforcement in prerequisite science. UCLA Medical Students often make themselves available to assist undergraduate students through encouragement and motivational talks.
