Inside Out: Medical School Series



When dreams stop becoming a question of "What do you want to be in the future?" and start to be a question of "What to do next?", that's when you know you've grown out of your baby shoes and whether ready or not, forced to fit in to bigger.

For some of us, being a doctor is a childhood dream. For some, a dream enlightened at the brink of medical school applications. For some, like me, unraveled under a thick wrapper of frustration (and probably some denial). In whatever way we realize our medical dream, they all mean dreams following a default process: graduate college, complete your NMAT, apply to your desired medical schools, wait dreadfully, and if granted, a pass to a medical school. It looks easy in the eye, but like precious stories, plot-twists happen in different ways in different individuals. Some take a year off, some take more years off, some need to work, some need to gather more financial resources. It's a crazy story.

(By the way, I also intend to do feature pieces of different medical student stories like the ones stated above. Let me know if you want this!)

During my year off deciding whether being a doctor is for me, I stormed the internet for answers to my questions. 

Am I fit in the medical field?

Are my motivations enough?

Am I smart enough for medical school?

and the important question for this blog post...

What medical schools are there?

There were a number of answers. They guided me to where I am. Now, I want to do the same for others and make it a collection of answers I needed for myself then. That's why, I'm starting a blog series!

Welcome to Inside Out: Medical School Series!

This blog aims to give aspiring medical students an idea of what the medical school featured is like inside the campus. It dreams to serve as a guide on choosing your dream school, the school you feel you will belong to, requirements for that school, and a school that caters what you want to be as a doctor. 

So this is how it's going to be:

I will feature one medical school (per week, but let's see!) at the perspective of one medical student studying in that school. They will be the ones taking over my blog for this series! That's fun to me, since I've always wanted to have a perspective of what students think about their school. I just never had the guts to ask, but now I do, and I have to share it to interested readers. 

That's it for my welcome remarks! I hope you enjoy and follow my Inside Out: Medical School Series.
