HOW DID I GET INTO MED SCHOOL • HIGH SCHOOL • GPA >3.5 • HIGH ACT SCORES • EXTRACURRICUAR ACTIVITES
HOW DID I GET INTO MED SCHOOL • COLLEGE • TAKE SCIENCE AND MATH CLASSES • >3.5 GPA • TAKE THE MCAT JUNIOR YEAR • GET TO KNOW YOUR TEACHERS WELL

SOUNDS LIKE A LOT -- DOESN’T IT • LETS TAKE TIME FOR QUESTIONS
WHY SHOULD I WORK SO HARD • People look to you for help • You can educate people • You can learn about the human body • You are always challenging yourself • It is fun
WORK HARD BE THE BEST AT WHAT YOU DO MAKE A DIFFERENCE NEVER STOP LEARNING SO WHATS THE BOTTOM LINE??
