Medical Sales College. Is it for Real?

Re: Sounds a lot like MSC.

Check out what happened to this for-profit college grad featured today in Yahoo Finance. Sounds a lot like a Medical Sales College grad.

"He fell for their sales pitch, hook line and sinker

"I should have seen all the signs. [The campus tour guide] had a used car salesman answer for everything," Keith recalls.

The magic number was always 99 percent–whether Keith asked how many enrolled students graduated or how many graduates scored jobs afterward.

Feeling confident, Keith took out $46,000 in private loans."

Medical Sales College love to tell their potential victims, I mean potential students, that only one guy is writing against them.

Interestingly, California Culinary Academy doesn't have a single Ripoff Report on them, yet they obviously have tons on victims.

Oh hell NO, I wouldn't use MSC. I think the ripoff guy is right about them.

3-Year Extension of MSC's License to Steal

Medical Sales College (MSC) recently released to the press a cleverly disguised advertisement about the extension of their Colorado license for a further 3 years.

What MSC conveniently fails to mention is that Allison Sherry, of the Denver Post, wrote that “[for-profit] colleges have found fertile ground to operate in Colorado because the state has not required much to open a campus or a storefront school.”

This link to the article shows it was published circa when MSC first opened, proving that MSC’s license indeed did not require much to obtain. http://www.denverpost.com/news/ci_14209838 .

Of course, what is even more interesting is that MSC’s press release boasts that “72% of their graduates in 2011 found jobs in medical sales.” This raises the following questions:

1) If their claim of an 81% placement rate in 2010 and a 72% rate in 2011 were true, then how can MSC also claim to have placed a total of 500 graduates since they opened, when their press release clearly says “MSC has now trained in excess of 1,000 students through its medical sales educational platform.” Doesn’t this necessarily mean that less that 50% of their graduates found jobs in the field?

2) Also, who placed these graduates, MSC, EliteMed Recruiting or both? For all we know, graduates placed themselves, thereby nullifying the implied purpose of EliteMed as recruiting for companies, not just for MSC.

3) Finally, where is the proof for their 72% placement claim? For whatever reason, MSC refuses to provide this information.

Instead, MSC directs readers to research their placement data directly from the state, or through links that ultimately fail to answer how they calculated the 72% figure. We will never know for sure if the 72% is based on all of their 2011 students, just their graduates or, perhaps, just those at the top of their classes.

MSC continues to lure potential students through unsubstantiated press releases, fake EliteMed job advertisements, and aggressive recruitment tactics. They think that repeating claims often enough will make them facts.

I’m not buying it, and neither should you. Again, all I have written are just my opinions. Caveat emptor, let the buyer beware.

70%-80% placement rate in this economy? Six-figure jobs!

The school as well as graduates are both smart! Great business!

As a side note, why is it that only the school and graduates supply factual information? That tells you what side of the story to believe.

The other guy is either a fucking idiot or just someone losing business to them!

'Steve' may be a bit insane but he is very articulate and makes justifiable arguments that he supports with proven factual data. He clearly feels very strongly about the MSC curriculum based on his consistent efforts to discredit MSC and EliteMed. An intelligent individual doesn't spend that time or effort doing something unless they really believe in what they are doing.

While 'Steve' may be out of his mind he has asked many valid questions that have solicited no direct response from MSC that can be perceived as evidentely undisputed. After you break down the responses by MSC and EliteMed they are nothing more than opinions. There is no factual data supporting any of MSC's claims in given reports.

If MSC is a legit operation then there should be no issue directly addressing concerns such as why does your former company AIMS have over 10 BBB complaints? Why have you changed your business name so many times? Can we see some factual data on placements and applications that are received? If questions such as these are addressed (don't address mine but address Steve's detailed lists instead, I am just someone who passed by this site and won't be back) shortly, accurately, and concisely without any 'fluff' in the verbage, it will certainly raise your enrollment and clear the air of the skeptical concerns of the thousands of people looking at your school.

Word to the Wise: Facts are undisputable and put the mind at ease. Shady salespeople are opinions 'fluffed' to look like facts that are persuasive in nature. If you read something and are unsure of what to think, it is an opinion and a sale. (i.e. - I tell you my dog fluffly went to the moon: Fluffly says, "Going to the moon was the best experience ever and brought me closer to my owner." Since I said fluffly said it it must be true...I could have fluffly tell you the same thing as well with no way of you knowing for certain if it was fluffy or not speaking with you. It could be a fat bearded cat acting to be fluffly without you even knowing. What would solve this issue? A scanned copy of Fluffy's ticket going to the moon! That takes a whole lot less time than typing up a rebuttal response.

Indisputable facts, not opinions will clear the MSC and EliteMed name within the community.

So the MSC response should go something like this: See this link, and this link, and this link. If there are enough facts on those links you wouldn't need to say a word.

Seems to me MSC/AIMS ducked this by losing it in the forums with spam so lets bring it back to front.

Medical Sales College (MSC) attempts to invalidate the Ripoff Report about them by alleging its author is one of their competitors. Well, let us abrogate their false claim with the following:

Jobseekers should avoid all recruiters and apply directly to companies.

The truth is, I once forwarded my private information to AIMS/EliteMed by answering one of their many credible looking job advertisements on national career boards. I once dealt with recruiters, but have come to the conclusion that networking and applying directly is much more effective.

Anyway, when an AIMS/EliteMed recruiter called, he praised my 4 years of medical sales experience and stated someone in my local area would be contacting me within a couple of days. He evaded all questions about their advertised position near my home.

A few minutes later, he followed up with an email to plant a seed about MSC. Since MSC's website claims they could make one seem as if they have 1 to 2 years of medical sales experience, and I already have 4 from a publicly traded company, I responded politely to express my disinterest in MSC.

Their recruiter then replied, "as per our conversation do not have the experience to get into medical sales." He never said that during our phone conversation, especially since he was too busy praising my accomplishments and stroking my ego--a classic sales technique of sugarcoating the pill. He seemed defensive and frustrated that he could not sell me MSC.

Again, I am not a recruiter, but simply the wrong person to try to con. True, I have never attended MSC, but one does not need to step into a pitfall to warn others about it.

The above is a great/intelligent point. Looks like AIMS/Elite Med/MSC keeps flooding the board with nonsense so they can brush this forum off strategically as all 'crazy-talk.' The more insane and disorganized forums look the higher of a leg they have to stand on when interviewing 'candidates.'

Here's something from a real student. Yes, it was written almost a year and a half ago, but keep in mind MSC already had their license at that time.


Tim TC in Cleveland, Ohio

It looks like the AIMS shill has made it to this board also. The BBB gave the school a D rating, and that's just the tip of the iceberg for complaints. They changed the name of the school for the 3rd time to dodge creditors. They're NOT approved for a college, they're approved for an 'occupational or 'trade' school. It's the same lame license you would need for a hair styling school. They've already been kicked out of Tennessee. Half the staff quit a few months ago before the name change to disassociate themselves from the school. They have placed some students with some small companies and distributors, but most early on. They will post some pictures on their website to have you believe that's the norm. For every student placed, there's two who haven't been placed. They gave the unplaced students refund guarantees (early on for placement and later for interviews) for which they NEVER honored. This is one of the reasons they changed their name again. You'll see them out of business by the Spring and most likely they will change the name of the school again to bilk more students. They will pop up often on this board and the cafepharma board desperately trying to refute negative postings from all the scammed grads. Bottom line---stay away.

It looks like the AIMS shill has made it to this board also. The BBB gave the school a D rating, and that's just the tip of the iceberg for complaints. They changed the name of the school for the 3rd time to dodge creditors. They're NOT approved for a college, they're approved for an 'occupational or 'trade' school. It's the same lame license you would need for a hair styling school. They've already been kicked out of Tennessee. Half the staff quit a few months ago before the name change to disassociate themselves from the school. They have placed some students with some small companies and distributors, but most early on. They will post some pictures on their website to have you believe that's the norm. For every student placed, there's two who haven't been placed. They gave the unplaced students refund guarantees (early on for placement and later for interviews) for which they NEVER honored. This is one of the reasons they changed their name again. You'll see them out of business by the Spring and most likely they will change the name of the school again to bilk more students. They will pop up often on this board and the cafepharma board desperately trying to refute negative postings from all the scammed grads. Bottom line---stay away.

Advice for a recent college graduate.
I'm a recent college graduate with degrees in Biomechanics and Kinesiology, I am very interested in becoming a device rep. I have no sales experience, is there any hope for me? Should I try Pharma first? I had a phone interview with Eli Lilly, but that is about it, does anyone have advice for me to get my career started?

Re: Advice for a recent college graduate.
Yes....choose a different industry. It used to be fun, but not so much anymore. I am switching careers after 10+ years in the industry. It was once good money, but the stress and lack of stability is not worth the ever declining coin. Good luck.

Thanks for the link. Performing due diligence was tough because of all the name changes: AIMS, The Art Institute, Vo-Tech Med Sales, and now the Medical College.

Here's another link that proved helpful

Re: Advice for a recent college graduate.
The best advice you'll get is here:

1.) DO NOT waste your time and money on any courses that claim to help you train or 'certify' for any type of medical sales career. They are ALL BOGUS. Do your research if you doubt it.
2.) DO NOT attempt to get into pharma.
3.) DO get a b2b job and work towards a MS or MBA.
4.) Look for any opportunities to network. This means reps in the field and recruiters.
5.) Look for opportunities to become an ASR. (Your quickest legit route)
6.) DO NOT waste your time and money on any courses that claim to help you train or 'certify' for any type of medical sales career. They are ALL BOGUS. Do your research if you doubt it.

A college in name only. They operated an illegal school called American Institute of Medical Sales (AIMS) in TN first, then in CO until the CO state officials caught up with them and required them to get a license like Jim Bob's Bartending School and and Aunt Maves Beauty school. They screwed previous students out of refunds promised in a contractual agreement by changing the name of the school. They are some of the most unethical and slimy people in the industry. Do your homework. Check them out by doing a Google search on AIMS. Take the time to read the blogs. Most of the complaints are legit. Medical Sales College is run by the same people who ran AIMS, they are the same company just under a new name. Their claims about the top medical companies hiring from them are bogus. Those are merely a few distributors who want cheap labor (many of them never pay AIMS the recruiting fee) that are affiliated with those companies and are friends of Jim Rogers, Medical Sales College CEO. They have had a bunch of turnover in their staff because of their unethical business practices. Save your money, network as much as possible. Get on LinkedIn and contact people in the industry. If you really want to be in medical sales, prove it to a hiring manager by working at a distributor for free for a month. Medical Sales College/AIMS is not where you want to be. They lie for a living.

Excellent post. Too many people try to take the short cut of the bogus "schools" or medical sales college programs and wind up regretting it. As a recent grad you have a lot of different opportunties in the industry if you take the time to do the work, which you will have to do anyway even if you go through the bogus programs. Save your money and use the time to educate yourself on what the hiring managers look for. Set up informational interviews, be relentless in your search. Nobody can do for you what you need to do for yourself which is to sell yourself to a hiring manager. No program will do that. Do not let yourself be mislead by spin marketing or pictures and claims on a website. Those people signed a waiver for their photo to be used in marketing pieces and can't do anything about the misrepresentation associated with their photo. Read the blogs as part of your research. If the company is legit, you don't see hundreds of posts about it in a month.

Bogus post by AIMS/Medical Sales College staff. Check out their BBB rating and the posts by doing a Google search to get the real facts.

Re: Advice for a recent college graduate.
Going into pharma isn't a bad gig for a year or two to get off the ground out of college. I started in pharma right out of college and I blow my fellow graduates out of the water in terms of salary. They're at Enterprise or Paychex making $40k a year and I'm making double in pharma. The key with pharma is to remember 2 things:

1. It's not going to be around forever. Layoffs are frequent. Have a backup plan.
2. The longer you stay in pharma, the less marketable you become. Pharma spoils us. Most other prestigious industries see us as glorified catering, so don't stay in this industry longer than 3 or 4 years unless you are married to a sugar mama or sugar daddy.

Good luck!

Re: Advice for a recent college graduate.
All of the previous posters offer good advice. Sounds like you have a very solid education. Right now you have to get in where you fit in. As you know Device is a very competitive field to get into but not impossible. Like other posters have said, I would try to avoid Pharma. Lots of folks are being laid off and losing their jobs. If you really want into Device contact some local distributors about Associate Rep positions. You will be somebody's bitch for a couple of years running surgical trays to cases but will learn invaluable lessons no pay-for-school program can sufficiently teach you in 8 weeks. I also have to agree with other previous posters that the money in Device is not what it used to be. If you have really good grades why not look at a Masters program? If you can get some of job that has a certification you will be recession proof. Do it now while you are young.

BEWARE! This place is the previous company American Institute of Medical Sales or AIMS.Do a search on Cafe Pharma for AIMS and take the time to read the posts. You will hear about students who were screwed out of legally required refunds. You will also see posts from Medical Sales College staff bashing previous students, paying customers, because they don't like it that previous grads are trying to get the word out about how slimy and unethical these people are. Spend your money elsewhere. And if you are female, avoid Medical Sales College completely. Several sexual harassments claims against the CEO and staff.

For two years Jim was having an affair with an Italian woman. One night, she confided in him that she was pregnant. Not wanting to
ruin his reputation or his marriage, he paid her a large sum of money
if she would go to Italy to secretly have the child. If she stayed in
Italy to raise the child, he would also provide child support until the
child turned 18. She agreed, but asked how he would know when the baby was born.

To keep it discrete, Jim told her to simply mail him a post card, and
write 'Spaghetti' on the back. He would then arrange for the child
support payments to begin.

One day, about 9 months later, he came home to his confused wife. 'Honey!,' she said, 'you received a very strange post card today .' He
said 'Just give it to me and I'll explain it later.' She did, and watched as her husband read the card, turned white, and fainted. On the card was written:

Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti.

Three with meatballs, two without.

Send extra sauce!

Keep it in your pants Jim!

Is this story true???? I don't doubt it in the least but can't imagine current wife would be happy about this. The only part of the story I doubt is that he promised to pay child support, that seems to honorable. How many kids does that make for him now??

Jim came home drunk one night, slid into bed beside sleeping Tom, and fell into a deep slumber.
He awoke before the Pearly Gates, where St. Peter said, 'You died in your sleep, Jim.'
Jim was stunned. 'I'm dead? No, I can't be! I've got too much to live for. Send me back!'
St. Peter said, 'I'm sorry, but there's only one way you can go back, and that is as a chicken.'
Jim was devastated, but begged St. Peter to send him to a farm near his home... The next thing he knew, he was covered with feathers, clucking and pecking the ground.
A rooster strolled past. 'So, you're the new hen, huh? How's your first day here?'
'Not bad,' replied Jim the hen, 'but I have this strange feeling inside. Like I'm gonna explode!'
'You're ovulating,' explained the rooster. 'Don't tell me you've never laid an egg before?'
'Never,' said Jim.
'Well, just relax and let it happen,' says the rooster. 'It's no big deal.'
He did, and a few uncomfortable seconds later, out popped an egg!
Jim was overcome with emotion as he experienced motherhood.
He soon laid another egg; his joy was overwhelming.
As he was about to lay his third egg, he felt a smack on the back of his head, and heard Tom say...


"Jim, wake up! You $h!t the bed!"

Jim's Anatomy Lecture

This is the best example for paying attention that I have ever heard.

First-day students at the Medical Sales College were attending their first
anatomy class with Jim. They all gathered around the
surgery table with Tom's body covered with a white sheet.

The professor Jim started the class by telling them, "In Medical Sales
it is necessary to have two important qualities.
The first is that you not be disgusted by anything involving the
animal's body." For an example, the professor Jim pulled back the sheet,
stuck his finger in Tom's butt, withdrew it, and stuck his
finger in his mouth. "Go ahead and do the same thing," he told his
students.

The students freaked out, hesitated for several minutes, but eventually
took turns sticking a finger in Tom's butt and sucking on it.

When everyone finished, professor Jim looked at them and said, "The
second most important quality is observation. I stuck in my middle
finger and sucked on my index finger. Now learn to pay attention. Life's
tough but it's even tougher if you're stupid."

For anyone that thinks MSC doesn't work, watch the videos.

Dreams do happen not with chance for the majority but dedication and hard work.

Thank you MSC.

I just talked with several people that have attended and two employers that have hired. I'm excited to get started. I looked through this site and I can see where apparently the "recruiter/steve" finally ceased his daily activity. I guess he got tired of all the placements and positive feedback about the school.

I still don't get it. I got into device from pharma a few years ago because I interviewed well and had good experience in the specialty I was selling to plus I sold copiers right out of college so I knew how to sell capital equipment. And this job I am in now it pretty good, I'll do 180 this year and it is pretty kickback, as you can see since I am posting at lunch time.

So I guess I don't know why someone like you would need this and someone like me didn't...

What didn't you do that I did? I don't ask that to be sarcastic, it is a serious question.

I help my good friends and take care of my great friends. People not my friend know me to be a terrible bastard.

I hope this turns out to be a great school and a great friendship.

Wish me luck!

most of these placements are with independent agents who sell these companies lines. The positions are straight commission only

Stay away. You would be better off offering a contingency recruiter an extra $5K if he places you
