I've applied for Drexel's ACE program for Fall 2014. It is 11 months long and I am concerned about this, considering almost every other program I've looked into is at least 14 months long. Is there anyone on here who has completed the program or knows of someone who has who can give me some advice?
Thanks so much!

I'm in my second quarter now. What I can tell you is that the program is incredibly fast, but if you keep on top of your studies/get the help if you need it right away, it IS doable. There have been many people before us as well as after us that have completed the program. Some people held down a job during the 1st quarter, but any time after that would be difficult. So really it's about preference. If you feel more secure with 3 extra months, go for it. But from what I can tell you, ACE is doable.
Ashley_Nicole, thank you so much! This is very helpful! I don't think I could manage holding down a job while in this program.. Serious props to those individuals! It helps to hear this from someone currently in the program. Thank you again!

I graduated this past fall. I would recommend it. It's totally doable like the person above me said. Drexel is very well known for this program and other hospitals like people that went through it, which helps in your job search.
