I’m not going to argue with a stranger on the Internet. Your opinion is yours. It clearly she’s poised and resilient enough to share her journey and Pursue her career. If you can’t wish her well no need to comment o. Her video
Because you feel your opinion matters, I will respond to your comment. No need to say “she,” I can see the comment so direct it directly to me. The way I “look” does not matter, it’s the work I put in that matters. Clearly you did not watch the video in it’s entirety. I can speak highly of myself because I earned the right to. If you don’t agree, that’s your problem. But several schools beg to differ. Whether “YOU” see it or not, don’t matter. In your world your opinion matters, over here we👏🏽 don’t 👏🏽 care 👏🏽. Thanks again for watching my video, I wish you all the success in the world 😇
Non-trad student as well. I have two bachelors, the last one being nurse. I’ve been a nurse for 2.5 years. Currently doing an DIY postbacc, wanted to do an SMP but I started back at school right when covid hit and I haven’t made connections with teachers. I wouldn’t have my letters of recommendation in time. Cant wait to see your journey!
Unless the institutions have specific instructions on who to have your LOR from, you could always get letters from your job experience & physicians you may have shadowed. If not, just be ready to have faculty letters ready for the next cycle! Good luck ❤️
It is too late in life to go to Medical school for me. However, I am going to leverage my science degree and MBA to obtain an accelerated BSN degree and then CRNA school.
Lol God bless that guy that had your acceptance letter 🙏🏾 .. going through a similar struggle rn with MCAT. Hoping for a good outcome because already submitted apps
Hey Soror! Thank you soooo much for this video. I am currently in the process of studying for my MCAT and have rescheduled so many times. I am submitting my app this month and resonated with everything you said! So happy you got your acceptance!
I absolutely love this video! It resonates with me 🥰🥰🥰What’s that a 3.2 overall or 3.2 science ? My overall gpa is 3.1 but I’m afraid my science gpa is lower than that.. also isn’t the master gpa is different from the undergrad gpa? Can you you explain how your graduate classes help increase your undergrad gpa? Thank you!
It was a 3.2 overall. So I’m sure my science gap was less than 3.0. Master’s GPA hold more weight with admissions because the curriculum is harder. So my 3.9 was my overall AND science because I took only science classes for my Master’s. It didn’t necessarily “help” my undergrad GPA. It overshadowed it. Plus, it showed I was serious and could do hard science coursework. I hope that helped!
@@brithemelaninmd8350 this helped a lot! Thank you !! For a very long time I’ve been thinking about how can I increase my undergrad gpa because I’ve heard a lot of schools have a cut off at 3.0 in their system where they won’t even look at your application. I wasn’t sure if that was science or overall. I did well in my masters but was concerning about applying due to my undergrad gpa.
@@KT-pw1cq it depends on the school cause wit the state school I looked at they don’t care if your undergrad was shit they said as long as your masters was a 3.0 and above. It’s like that wit a lot of other schools too .
All of the RUclips videos says the same thing: “low Gpa” (which really isn’t that low.. cause gpa cut offs are 3.0) special masters : 4.0 got into med school.” Are there any instances where they did decent but not a 3.9 or damn near perfect in a special masters that still got in?
I’m an RN in the ICU and thinking about starting to take the prerequisites for medical school but I’m not where to start.. like should I start a masters program or just take the prerequisites and apply? Thank you for making such an honest video!!
I would check to see how many pre-reqs you’re missing. If it’s a lot or you need some better grades, I would do a masters degree so you can add those pre-reqs + another degree to your application. If it’s just a couple, i would just take them solely!
we gotta stop making these videos.. too many low scoring individuals not simply stating the obvious. you got in cos you're underrepresented minority. that's all.
delayed NEVER denied !
cant wait to see Dr. Long in action!
Yes ma’am!!! 🥰 I can say the same about you Dr. Harris!
The best "How I got into Medical School" video I've seen! Thank you so much!!
I’m so proud of you! Keep up the awesome work! This has inspired me to keep going in the process! Thanks for sharing your story!
Thanks Amanda, you know I am always here if you need me ma’am!!
I've been so intrigued by your journey. To say the least, I'm proud of you and I know you'll be nothing less than great
Thank you ❤️

Hey Soror!! This is so inspirational! I just applied to the PMSS program!! Hoping I get in!
The answer is always no if we never ask.
Agreed!

@@subibrothersbrewing6598 Never too late. I'm at the end of my 30's and preparing for med school. Go for it if it's something you want to do.

How would you compare your master classes to medical school?
Medical school is more content
