Hey Kevin! I think it would be great if you made a video in which you explore the combined residency programs (eg. med/peds, neuro/psych, med/psych, triple board...) and explained where they stand in terms of competitiveness with one another and their individual programs. That would help me a lot as I'm thinking of applying to med/psych as of lately. Much love!

[@snowecaddel9454]

I hope to become a doctor one day. Could you make a video about working in places that are in genocide/war? I wanna go help people there.

So I have a question and hope anyone answers if we applying by the end of our junior year what if a student moves the requirements to senior year like bio chemistry? What can be done?

[@Austinteffeteller]

Some schools will let you submit classes or even the MCAT after you submit your application. In most cases you would want to have your prerequisites done by the time you apply. It also would be tough to have taken the MCAT without having done biochemistry. However, Each school will specify when you need to have all the classes submitted by (:

[@emperoranywhere2405]

@ oh ok thank you so much man cuz by the end of junior year ima Be over with everything but biochem I didn’t had time so I will need to take it fall of my senior year so I was just worried that might screw me up

[@Austinteffeteller]

@@emperoranywhere2405no worries. If it’s just 1 class it should be fine but I would look and see what schools say about the deadline 👍🏻

[@Xeropium]

Does this apply for becoming a surgeon?

[@bobiscius956]

Yeah, your gpa or quartile in med school classes may need to be a bit higher depending on the specialty. Or one thing some people I know are doing is shadowing the specialty they know/think they want and getting in situations to know the department chair, residents, and nursing staff of that area. She is playing the long game for plastics but it sounds like a good idea to me

[@idtolani]

Yeah

[@Yohanyothan]

Same process, an aspiring surgeon applies for general surgery residency after medical school.

[@RC.-]

Yea, after medical school you can apply to specific residencies/specialties

[@CarCheddar]

[@sagdaarmi1664]

Do I have to study biology to study medicine? I'm not American so how do I do that? I hope you can answer.

[@bobiscius956]

No, there were a few people in my undergrad who got into med school with a music major. As long as you do the prereqs for med school (if the school still requires them) and you do well on the MCAT it is totally possible. Biology is nice because the major’s courses overlap with a ton of the MCAT subjects as well as school prerequisites.

[@Jdot984]

You’ll have to take biology courses but doesn’t have to be your major

Hello Doctor, for a moment I was watching your video about medicine, but literally I don't know what my passion is, and I had in my head just medicine. 😅Because I studied science in high school, I did not want to waste my years of study in the science major. What do you think? I literally have no passion. I hope for help.

[@winger9229]

Maybe medicine isn’t for you tech maybe at the end medicine or whatever speacialty will take time maybe consider Pa or RDH

Great video, with neatly organized content. However, I'm truly surprised about the requirements and what one must do in order to practice medicine. Besides doing spectacularly at your tasks, you also need to be basically a people pleaser - for the job interviewers, for the mentors, and your future boss. And don't give me these statements that everything in the interview/ essay needs to be genuine and authentic. I think everyone knows it, yet all vehemently denies it. You're mostly there for the money, or it's a job that you're good at and somewhat enjoy practicing it. You just need to say the things that they want to hear. And if you're truly good at something, especially in medicine, you'll hardly have time for hobbies... Enough for my rant. As a resident in my last year from another country, I'm in no place to criticize. Where I'm from it's quite different, and not so tedious. Just watching your video makes me wonder how many American citizens become doctors?
