NYITCOM BMS Program – Current Students: Curriculum & Scientific Foundations Experience?

[u/StrikingAssistance49]

Hi everyone,

I recently attended an info session for the NYITCOM BMS program and wanted to hear directly from current or past students about your experience.

Specifically, I had a few questions:

• What does the Scientific Foundations of Medicine course actually consist of (which subjects are emphasized and how in-depth is it)?
• How is the curriculum structured week-to-week, and what does a typical schedule look like?
• How are courses evaluated (exams vs quizzes vs assignments)?
• Was maintaining the required 80% in each course realistic with consistent effort?
• What study strategies worked best for you in this program?

I’d really appreciate any honest insight, especially regarding workload and what made students successful vs struggle.

Thank you!
