I graduated with a 1.6 GPA, and at the bottom 11 percentile of my senior class. I Ended up doing 10 years in the military 3 Army guard, 7 US Navy. I became a corpsman in the Navy specializing as a respiratory therapist. During my time in the military and a year after separating it took me a total of 11 years to get past remedial courses, undergrad, and PA prereqs. I recently got accepted to PA school. This story is all too familiar. Glad to see that there are other black men out there finding ways to overcome and achieve success.

Im back on my bs. And I’m in a non-deployable unit so I can focus with no distractions. I even sat down and had a conversation with a physician who didn’t start medical school until he was 32 who also reassured me that it wasn’t too late, but the whole divorce thing took a huge mental total on me, only because I had to leave my son behind, I couldn’t care less about the wife.

[@malachiaadonis8178]

Hello Antonio J Webb. I share a similar story to you in that my lack of knowledge of the medical school process (I am from the UK) but unlike you I did not have the conviction of wanting to study medicine from 17 years old, my conviction and volition to study medicine developed at the relatively mature age of 24 years old. I plan on applying to medical school at either 26 or 27 years of age because most medical courses in the UK are 6 years I will graduate at either 33 or 34 years of age, doing a course like one did the Georgetown Post Bac GEMS programme to enable me to apply to medical school, 10/11 years after someone who chose to do Medicine earlier from 18 and qualified at 23 years old. I am currently an ECG technician, as an ECG technician I am developing traits I would not otherwise have (such as empathy, patience and building a rapport with the patients I see) had I applied to medical school with just brief work experience. I now know the difference between a job and career, a career offers development, increased opportunity and responsibility; most jobs do not. You are an inspiration, you were not moulded by you environment. Thank You

Hispanic female physician here - I can say that we need more minority physicians STAT. I was more traditional in my training and it was tough! I think that sometimes we focus on getting everything done in a tight timeline. This works for some but not all. As a college student I worked part time to support myself. This is a common story for minorities. I was able to have a more linear path, but please be encouraged by Dr. Webb’s story. The path can take years, but there is a finish line. And you too can be a great physician, even if you have to work 1-2 jobs as a student or take extra time to get there. We need more minority physicians and many will need extra time. That’s ok, maybe even necessary, to become a great physician. Keep working hard and don’t lose sight of your goals and your community. Stay focused and you’ll get there!! 🧑🏻‍⚕️🧑🏽‍⚕️🧑🏾‍⚕️

Reading your comment and listening to Antonio has been truly inspiring, it’s lovely to learn that another student in Australia is taking the persistent path around becoming a doctor, this helps me to learn that I’m not alone. I believe that following the longer path can allow for other experiences other students at medicine may potentially not learn, such as the feeling the greatest joy in achieving something that you have persisted to get for so so long. I truly truly hope all goes well with you, and that your dedication in taking this path will blossom and reap rewards. Please keep at it, I know you’ll get there ❤️

You’re inspiring! I want to become a neurosurgeon but I’m so insecure and I feel that I’m not smart enough to become a doctor. I won’t give up just like you and try my best!

Honestly same even now, I graduated hs with a 2.0 gpa. First year of college got c's and b's, med school started feeling like a pipe dream. Now I got on myself with time management, now my grades have improved to b's for Chem and bio, next semester spring will be A's. Hope the same happens for you.
