First Year of Medical School | Fall Semester Reflection
In this video, I talk about my first year of medical school so far in my fall semester reflection. Here, I talk about topics such as making friends, moving away from NJ, finding outside communities, and involvement on campus. For the next semester, I hope to study more effectively, get involved in research, make more M1 friends, and be more involoved in clubs outside of medicine.

When Your Orgo Score Comes Out as a Pre-Med
Переглядів 231Рік тому
We had those instances in a pre-med class, such as Orgo, when your exam results come out, and you now have to face your classmates to tell them what you got. You do bad and it seems to get worse as the professor relists his expectations for the class. This is typically how it went for me.

    Congratulations! Any tips for scholarships in undergrad?

    • @SeanOchiagha
      @SeanOchiagha 4 дні тому

      Thank you! In terms of getting scholarships in undergrad, I would try and look into your pre-health office for local scholarships. Most likely, those scholarships will be open to a small pool of people, which should increase your chances. In terms of writing, definitely include ancedotes and have a lesson on what you learned from those experiences.

    Congrats! If someone wants to apply to Toledo but they don’t have any connections to the area should they even bother applying? I really like the program but on the secondary it asks if I have any connections to the area, is it ok to leave it blank?

    • @SeanOchiagha
      @SeanOchiagha 4 місяці тому

      I would say they accept students that are out of state and don't have ties to the Toledo area. So, if you resonate with their mission statement and values, then defintely apply! You can leave it blank if it doesn't have a red asterisk for that question!
