      Black is the absence of color.
      In the 50s, “colored” was used.
      Melanated has never been culturally accepted, but congrats, black woman

      @JK golden I've always found it interesting that people make the assumption that childhood is fun or easier than being an adult. Many kids, through no fault of their own, have crappy childhoods and very little control over their lives. By the time they become of age, they are screwed up because of the years of trauma they had to endure.

      Absolutely amazing, but I have the same concerns. Med School and Grad School are wildly different from any other form of education. I am 100% confident that she will pass the pre clinical coursework with flying colors, but I am concerned about how she will do in the clinical environment at that age. I don't know if any 15 year old would be capable of telling someone they are dying or parents that would be comfortable with someone their child's age treating their child or how you could understand the conditions that would drive someone to addiction with no life experience. I really wish her the best, but it might be better if she does an MD PhD route and focus on research for 4 - 6 years between her pre clinical and clinical training.

      Too many bitter Betties up in this b. What makes you think she won't be able to do it? Have you been the one walking this life for her? She clearly has a strong support system and I'm sure she and her mother and her career advisor must have gone through some of what she can expect going into the medical field. It's like like she is the first to have entered med school at such a young age. So what's your problem with her doing it? So, what do you suggest? That she remain in a class that is age appropriate and be bored out of her mind and just be wasting away? Y'all can't even help yourselves.

      @@amandar614 Exactly. And too many of us are ignorant about the dividends of early childhood stimulation to improving quality of life in our communities. There's a window of opportunity many others understand that gives other kids a leg up on us. Instead too many of us have to overcome the effects of poor nutrition, neglect, psychological abuse and programming to be less. I'll never forget the mentality of the aunts of 10 year old's already in the criminal system because they dropped a 5 year old off the top of a building for not stealing candy for them. While being interviewed these women said "they're just babies, they didn't know what they were doing!" A genius born in that environment will either be totally discouraged and disengage or become a slick criminal.

She does have to finished everything before starting. She can’t just go right into the program without MCAT and certain credits/credentials

      @@jl1695 it's great to think black women can do such amazing things now, when even 50 years ago being either of those things would've held her back massively.

    I was the second youngest in my class at 20, the other one beat me by 3 months when I got accepted, this young lady beat me by 7 years. Proof, the top of one mountain is the ground of the next. Hats to you young lady, all the best!

      Congrats! to this young lady and her village for nurturing the gifts God gave her to help others. I knew I wanted to be an MD from the age of 12yrs and entered Med School at age 20. I had a wonderful journey and retired as a Pediatrician after over 30years of practice treating patients with Developmental Disabilities. Now my daughter has followed suit and is a Pediatrician and Neuro researcher at Johns Hopkins University. She was never encouraged to pursue Medicine and only became interested after her second year of college. I credit much prayer and God leading her to what is now her passion.
