Almost no one in my family believes I can earn a Bachelor's Degree. My older sister and brother don't even want me to! But I still believe I can achieve it, so I keep studying. That`s what makes me great!

Its okay queen....You will go back to your usual self when you graduate. I was on anti depressants for 4 years while in medical school. I just came off it 2 years ago after I graduated. I am back to my normal self...but I am a lot calmer and I am now very gentle...

Hi there! I think it’s worth talking to some admissions offices to get their input. I know of people who got accepted with that score and also each year it gets more and more competitive. Score is just one component though, volunteering, clinical hours, LOR, GPA, and character mean something too!

I write down the negative feedback and create a to do list to explore new ways of learning those topics,often after feedback I take it to my mentor or a close friend and we bounce some ideas to explore.

Pop your stuff! An important part of their care team....dedicated!! Put the good stuff on it! One thing about you, you gone ask and advocate. I loooove this for you! SHOOT YOUR SHOT. Whew chile. I tell my doctor to NOT talk to me about what she's doing! It freaks me out. Just do what you gone do. Yaaaas best is acknowledged! I have to work in silence!!!!!!!!!!!!
