    What a blessing, God is good. I relate. Got into med school at age 25, after so many regret letters, I am a Mom to a 7-year old. And here I am now, in my 4th year at 28.

    This found me just when I was about to give up. I've been trying to get into Diagnostic Radiography but I already have a degree in Journalism and I'm a wife in my late 20's. I went to an interview for a training centre in 2022 and was told I'm too old and would make the senior students who would be managing me nervous and I was crushed. I took last year off and I'm trying again this year. I hope to come back to this post with good news.

    Oh my goodness this is so motivational ❤❤ I'm so glad I came across this video it's giving me the push that i need. I'm starting a 2nd undergrad from scratch next year at 23 and I keep worrying about being so much older than my classmates but i guess all that doesn't matter because i have a goal in mind. I also want to get into medicine so yeah I'm giving myself a second chance. At least this time it's something in health so i know i will enjoy it. I pray that soon i will tell my story just like you.
    Congratulations 👏 i wish you all the best with your journey Dr. All glory to the most high!

    Wow this is so inspirational sis❤️😭. I relate so much in most of the things you said 🥹, struggling to get into Medical School with great matric results because your degree marks aren’t good. Please tell me when you applied at Stellenbosch and finally got an offer, at this time did you apply with the new marks of the post graduate qualification you did? Or you still applied with the university results you had? Also could you please tell me what did they ask you in the interview (I made an assumption that it’s Stellenbosch University that gave you an offer)

      @noko_mokobi  4 месяца назад

      Hello! Yes, unfortunately you can pretty much forget about your matric marks once you have a degree. 🙄My postgrad marks were better than my degree marks and that is how I managed to get in.
      The interview questions basically relate to why you want to study medicine and why at that specific institution. 🌸

      Unfortunately not hey! Legally you’re obliged to disclose cause there’s a clause that you must accept with your application that says you’ve been honest about how you answered… and one of the questions you’ll have to answer is along the lines of “have you previously studied at a university”.
