[@aaliyahbattle1052]

Omg I was literally at Albert Einstein this summer doing research! I totally loved the environment, the most chill grad program I've ever seen so I hope you enjoy your time there! Also, the Bronx is so underrated she's a gem💕

[@sam_woo]

the Bronx is soo underrated!!

[@keishabonner7309]

Thank you! Great advice. And congratulations on your acceptance!🙂

[@polliannamoshenskiy]

You are so funny! Congrats on getting into medical school and thanks for the advice

[@happyblackwoman6154]

You having 3.85 gpa and 516 MCAT score already put you at the top of the list of the schools you applied to. Those are great stats!

[@lucask9139]

Congratulations!

[@andresaguirre7683]

Great to see a fellow Yalie talk about med school apps. I'm sorry you got stuck in Ldub and in one of the most crowded dining halls (Stiles for the win). Would definitely like to see another video specifically about pre med at Yale! I just finished my first year and would benefit from the knowledge of someone like yourself.

[@sam_woo]

I was actually in Morse, so we shared the same dining hall :)

[@johnc2217]

Lamaooa bro I love your personality!!! Good luck with everything 🍀

[@skyeisoncloud9483]

im applying this cycle w very similar stats. Seeing how your interviews spread out kinda calmed me down a bit. I also got 2 IIs in August and was worried something's wrong with my app. :/ Aight just gotta sit tight and be patient Ig

[@talk.bunkus]

I wanna give u a big big hug for this vid... I can't find enough motivation to finish any of my drafts to send it to my mentor. Hopefully it'll change in 20 minutes. If not... idk what to do. Again, thank you! You're amazing and inspiring and so hard-working

[@sam_woo]

Take a break if you need it. Success doesn't come overnight, which is why mental health is so important! Keep pushing, you got this :)

[@talk.bunkus]

thank you!!! @@sam_woo

LETS GO SAM!!🥳

[@thandosilinda2590]

You have such a great personality 😂 new sun here! I’m a premed student too but I’m studying music so my path is a little non-traditional ✨

[@edreaa]

Congrats sam!! Excited for nyc content 👀

[@moon_louis]

Congratulations! You kind of look like Einstein 😍

[@sam_woo]

that was out of pocket💀

[@lucask9139]

2:37 the screen says 3.83 but you said 3.85 🤔 are you stat padding?

[@sam_woo]

LeStatPadding

[@raisinbrahms]

watching this manifesting for myself

[@samhopkins5771]

how lucky he chose einstein, I think the tuition is free now

[@aarona9469]

Great video! I was wondering what work were you doing while applying? Was it clinical stuff? Thanks!!

[@sam_woo]

Yes, I did clinical research for a year! Would definitely recommend taking a gap year not only for your emotional wellbeing, but just personal growth as well :)

[@thephoenix7090]

how would a 3.7 and a 515 look cuz I'm stressed about my grades

[@hksawitfirst]

as long as your science gpa is good you’re good

[@winvu7076]

[@krishpatel4145]

Why did you choose Albert Einstein over the other schools you were accepted to?

[@pierty878]

Can't speak for him specifically, but in general location, cost of attendance, perceived prestige, and research opportunities are key factors for most when deciding. The culture of the school is also very important (i.e., competition vs. collaborative student body). Einstein is in NYC, is a big research school, and has a great reputation. I'm not sure what the financial aid is like.

[@yessicaperez4627]

Did you take a gap year when applying to med school?

[@cherivbouyahmed998]

Mate mabe this seems to be funny a little bit but how can l as a medical student in the country named Mauritanie in africa be able to get in one of those medical university in the usa🥲

[@jacindapaf8076]

Can you pay? That’s probably the first thing to consider.

[@matthewcheng755]

WOWWW

[@minyeollee2116]

is NYU grossman and Long Island a separate application?

[@sam_woo]

yes! separate applications

[@Hemrajkarmin]

Resources for mcat???

[@alexwyler4570]

Future video? How did you qualify for fee assistance? Did your parents get laid off during Covid? Do your parents work a minimum-wage job? Do you have a parent in jail? Are you a welfare kid? Your mom's house seems very nice. It looks like a normal American house. not judging, not criticizing, but curious. Applying to 20 schools is easily 6% of most families' pre-tax income.
