Stay focused, pray if u believe in it, spend more time in ir biological sciences, statistics and Biochemistry are every med. student nightmare,, so make sure u take a prep class for those while in your undergrad, believe u can do it and the sky is your starting point, go get them girl, cheers

@Mekaozi
So what med school are you in? i'm a Biology senior, and i can't  lie, the last lap is almost frustrating, the thought of med school proper is almost a dream, but i know slowly but surely, as for the cure to HIV and cancer, i don't know, i doubt it, because we're talking virsuses here, and in the cancer, depending on which one it is! some already have cures, others, well, a person has to wait and pray,

@dearzi
am in You C san-diego medical school. , yeah I know about the last lap, in fact it hasnt been that long for me either, I always remember my interview eac time I walk into that Gross-anatomy Lab. Have u taken the mcat or not. Pay more attention to your chemistry, especially your second semester O.chem. Go over the clinical questions in your biology textbooks since they are the kind of questions u will most likely encounter in mcat. some of the questions they asked me at my intervies are: A. if a patient had to go through a surgical procedure in which his/her spleen was removed,, what kind of food should the patient stay away from? they also asked me about the Oregon's doctors assisted suicide bill that just got debated at the supreme court? do u think it is ethical?, would u or would u not do it?, Abortion? If u haven't written your personal essays, personalize it as much as possible. Be original, make sure u do extensive grammatical error corrections. If u get a secondary application frm any school,, then u have jumped the first huddle, if everything fails You have the option of applying to United states accredited Caribbean medical schools, I got into three of those too, just make sure u can be licensed in Florida, california, New york and texas , since those are the hardest states for any school to get recognized, infact other states recognized foreign med schools as soon as they gain accreditation into any of the above mentioned states. So long as u have a minimum g.p.a of 3.4, u have at least a millon+ options to achieve your goals, if your GPA is lower than that, well I would recommend u take some upper division classes to bring it up,, or take a two year graduate program in the biomedical field before u apply, good luck

@miky
Good choice men, u will never regret it. The years are not that long depending on what u do your fellowship in. as soon as u get your degree, Med. school is only 3 years and 6months should u pass all your board exams the first time. You actually start making money from your residency through your fellowship if u want to do one. Infact u will be so busy in med. school especially if u go to one that emphasizes research that u wont know when the four years is over, but for now concentrate on getting getting into a prestigeous university because it does help your chances of getting prefrence. I graduated from Duke University on full time scholarship from my second semester before going to medical school, make sure u do tons of community service and volunteer at least four hours every month at the ICU or emergency department of your local hospital, trust me admissions committee loves this part,

Well good luck to all u guys, and for those wondering I will be doing my residency/fellowship in neurosurgery and am shooting for John Hopkins, yeah right, no seriously, anyways, stay focused guys and u can do it,  Grin

If i told you i know a man that has a NAFDAC-approved cure for AIDS would you believe me? Well, if you know any AIDS patient, let me know. We have been conditioned to believe there is no cure for AIDS; would there ever be a problem without solution?

Prospective Medical Student!!!


this thread shouldn't get lost in the pile of threads in this forum. they should give us a special space in the education forum. kind of like the "christianity for christians" etc. in the religion forum.
