      Lorena Sanchez she doesn’t become employable after 2020 she has to study further 8-9 years in order to do something like GP or whatever she likes it’s a myth that it takes 5 years for you to become doctor it’s 3 times that time

      Ali Zadeh when people say “become a doctor” they don’t technically mean a practicing physician::: it just means you’ve now graduated medical school & have earned your letters.. Everyone knows u have to further your schooling & etc... don’t rain on people’s parade.... at least after she graduates , she can start earning money in her residency.

    you actually made my cry at the end of the vid :( you're going to be such an amazing doctor! sometimes i feel like doctors don't care as much, some of them seem like they don't even want to do the job... it's a terrible feeling when someone who is supposed to help you when you feel the worst, doesn't seem to have any compassion.

      It’s sad that I’ve had similar experiences and that’s a main reason why I want to be a doctor someone who can be trusted and ask actual help for it’s sad that I was insecure in my doctors office and I don’t want anyone to think think like that and I’ll be there for them.

    America, I can understand the anxiety of having to keep it together in front of your patients when inside, you feel like you are not good enough yet. Impostor syndrome is HORRIBLE. I am a surgical nurse student and every day I'm at the hospital it just feels like I am not qualified enough to be there, even though i KNOW I am!
    You are doing great. You belong where you are. You are the kindest and most uplifting person I have seen on youtube and will make a great doctor. Stay strong and we all know you will be AMAZING!
    It is all a learning process.

    Hi America! I'm a MS2, currently on a break so i binged all your videos. Its amazing to see how you have grown as an individual, youtuber and as a med student.
    Also its funny how Christian always sat next to you in your old vlogs before you guys started dating. Can say he was interested in you hahaha :)
    I hope you'll see this. Good luck on step 2 :)

    I love how honest you are America! You don’t hide how you feel and you don’t try to make yourself seem like anything but your authentic self. It’s so hard to find that in especially these “med school bloggers” who try to glamorize their journey and make it seem like they’re acing everything and have it all figured out. We get to see the true you in the ups and downs and I’m sure I can speak for all of us we appreciate it sooooo much!! It feels nice to not feel alone in all this chaos.

You'll be a great doctor not bc you know everything or bc you're the perfect student but because you care about your patients, about being as truthful as possible and doing your best, and that's all you can ask of a doctor really. Congrats on your headshot, keep up the crazy work! Greetings from Brazil 💪

    MS1 here currently on exam countdown (15 hours now) and I just wanted to tell you how inspiring your videos have been this year. Your persistence and dedication to studying is super motivating when I'm exhausted and just want to give up and sleep. Sometimes (a lot of times lol) that's what it takes in med school, and seeing how far you've come is super motivating. Congrats on this milestone, and best of luck for Step 2! I can't wait for your graduation vlog!!
