Many people want to come to medical school! Yeah they want to wear white "robes" but it entails a lot. You should know what it takes. If your answers to these questions is No! You should change your perspective if you are bent on coming or discover where you should really belong

1. Am I scared of challenges?
Challenges are encountered regularly, during dissection you may not find structures, you might find understanding stressful but as a medical student you should think outside the box and create solutions
you are being trained to Solve Problems

2. Am I good at paying attention to details?
In medicine little details count, If you don't pay attention you might find it hard really
you should pay attention to details while reading and studying

3. Am I good at working with other people?
Lone Rangers you need to change your style
You should read together because no one can know all. Treating your patients at times requires the professional help of your colleagues

4. Am I Ready to Study well?
I mean study well not hard. You must develop your own method to be the very best in whatever you do
by studying well. You need to pass your Exams before moving on and that requires Hard work

5.Am I ready to be Patient and Respectful?
In Medical school if you are rude to your teachers you are breaking your back. You must listen and take to correction. You don't disrespect people who have Academic Authority over you. They will help respectful students . They are stern so you can be good doctors
