Non-Traditional Student’s Guide to Medical School Acceptance

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

If you’re a non-traditional student, what was your pathway to medicine? Comment below.

[@NishantGogna]

I’m a fourth year med student after having a 10-year career in film and media production. Anything is possible!

[@user-vk2ei5ze4y]

did you go through the post bacc program?

[@SaviourSol]

What made you want to change careers? I'm in a similar boat and would love to hear your perspective!

[@Musicsperfection09]

I'm a 51 year old 3rd year med student after 25 years as a minister/missionary.

Seen your videos!

[@hellogoodbye637]

That's awesome! Doing God's work in both professions!!

I was a social worker. Now I am transitioning to the medical field. Thank you for creating this video.

[@CJWass09]

This will be my path too! I'm getting my masters in social work currently 🙌

[@n70199]

As a practicing physician who graduated from medical school 23 years ago, I find it strange that I check into the channel on occasion. Like the content in this video, I transitioned from engineering to medicine. Straightforward process. Complete the requirements. Submit application. Fun channel to relive past experiences.

[@rolo9263]

How old are you?

[@AznJsn82091]

I went to undergrad and grad school for mathematics with the purpose of being a teacher. After teaching for a few years, it wasn’t as passionate for me anymore and I wanted to try something different. So then I took an EMT course. I really liked it, but didn’t like the chaotic nature of the job. Sticking with healthcare, I applied to be an ophthalmic technician at an eye clinic. Since then, I’m enjoying it and having more fun than before. The doctors I work with are every nice and I’m learning lots of new things everyday.

starting pre-med tomorrow after 15 years from graduation of HS. Doing the pre-classes for the radiology program of the school i'm going. what i doing this semester are bio lecuter/lab, math and english class.

BSN nurse here 🙌, I'm watching all videos to educate myself as I'm about to jump in, I will need all good advice here.

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

You got this! Thanks for watching!

[@emiliomartineziii2980]

I am so grateful that you made this video! Like seriously, Dr. Jubbal, you are awesome! As a fourth year electrical engineering student who is seriously considering going into medicine after graduating, this helped out a ton, and definitely answered all of the main inquires I had on what steps to take. Before watching this video, I wasn't even completely sure what the pre requisite courses were, but now I know and totally plan to do a Post--Bacc now. I 100% agree with the end and do see how a special narrative can really help a non biology premed and I'm honestly glad to be in engineering because of that, since for my senior design, my team is building a device that can automate CPR. It will be very similar to the locus devices currently being used by EMT's except there will be enhanced functionality in ways that no device on the market currently has and we hope to get a patent our our design. If I ever do become a doctor, I totally plan to use electrical engineering in my medical research, since I would just love to use my background in electrical engineering to improve hospital equipment, create robotic prosthetics and implants, and to hopefully be among the first generation of pioneers to work in cybernetics.

BME here approaching 2 years in the field after graduation. I had the same reaction!!!

"The pathway to becoming a doctor is long and arduous!" True that. Thanks for sharing this with us, Dr.Jubbal!🙂👋🏽👨🏾‍⚕️

Please do a video for international students in the US! Love the content!

[@maryhasaballa4052]

Wow, amazing! I was hoping you'd make a video on this and here it is! Very insightful!

[@Poppomatic64]

The post bacc is SO GOOD TO KNOW

[@jamielaw4749]

The process is very different in Canada. Would love to see content on that!

[@falaknaaz9987]

Very informative. Can you also do a video on post bacc programs?

[@jacebrainard6215]

Can you do nursing to medical school?

[@JediHutch61]

Yes and no. You can get your BSN, then take med school prerequisites, and go to medical school. It doesn’t change any of the courses you have to take, but it does give you some exposure to medicine and medical specialties prior to medical school.

[@XxSUR3SH07xX]

@@JediHutch61 This is exactly the situation that I am in. Got my BSN 3 years ago and am now applying for medical school after taking prerequisites

[@JediHutch61]

@@XxSUR3SH07xX I’m in a similar position. Got my BS in Paramedic Sciences in 2013, been a medic for 10 years, and flight medic for a year. Planning to start taking prerequisites next year just trying to determine where I want to do them and how around my 10 days on/20 off schedule

[@ItsMeTish2.0]

Yes, if you're a nurse and decide to pursue medicine like I am. I'm an RN and I'm currently pre-med.

[@sheeliekittie9298]

thank you so much for making this video. i worry all the time it's too late for me. but i have a passion for truly helping and making a difference in this world we inhabit. i know it's not the ONLY way to do so ( via medicine )but I think I'm at this point in my life, in my 40's, I would like to change career trajectories..do you really believe its still possible? i'm coming from a teaching / education background.

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

Absolutely! It's never too late.

[@Holangood-qv1ik]

hello everyone i just want to know if a non science background student can become a medical doctor?

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

Absolutely! But there are prerequisite courses you need to cover, no matter your premed degree. Check out our video on the best premed majors, which outlines the benefits of non-science majors. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5zRmKKuqJd9f6c
