Purpose

The purpose of the pre-health aspect of AED is to provide members with unmatched opportunities to prepare them for their professional school of choice. It is a very versatile and flexible tenet of AED, since students have a lot of say in the types of events they want to see. Pledges are required to get 10 points and actives are required to get 7 points.
