      I love your videos soooooooooooooooooooooo much violin MD. I wish you could collaborate with Maha someday. I love your videos too Maha I am Egyptian like you and Muslim and half Maltese, I am studying for my A levels to go to medical school directly and both you and violin MD motivate me soooooo much when I am lazy to study and I look up to both of you.

    A common misconception is that, to pursue a medical career you have to be super passionate from day 1 and you shouldn't have any second thoughts about it or else medicine is not for you. I think your story highlights that it's okay to try a different path before coming to the conclusion of studying medicine.
    Personally I've always wanted to study medicine however after to my undergrad I had a lot of doubt such as am I intellectually capable, can I afford it, what about family?? So it's really refreshing to see someone who shares similar feelings. Maha I'm rooting for you wish you the best of luck!

I think I just have to give up now .. really happy to watch you .. wishing you all happiness and success❤❤

    @madds4598 6 років тому

    I came back and re-watched this and I'm tearing up...as a junior high student who is set on pursuing a career in medicine, this is so inspiring to watch. The ceremony really highlights the rewarding parts of med school and it's nice to know that it's not always "study, study, study" and that you do get to make lifelong friendships and have fun along the way. Your channel is seriously amazing and I hope you continue to make videos for as long as they make you happy :)

    Congratulation girl!!!! You are truly an inspiration for others. Like you I also went through the same dilemma of wondering whether medical school is the path i want to get into. Although Im in college now, it is my last year, and I have spent the last 3 years in and out of the medicine path. But alhamdulliah I have decided that this is what I want to do. And just watching your videos, really inspire me more to want to pursue a career in the field of medicine and to become a doctor. Inshallah you will do well in medical school. and just pray for me that I get into medical school lol. Can't wait for your next video :)

    This is great!! I’m glad to know I’m not the only one who was dissatisfied with medicine at first! I was a Pre-Med major my freshman year but dropped it because of how competitive and cold everyone and switched to business. However, everyday I missed the science classes and my passion for medicine was still there and knew I had to switch back before it was too late! Now, as a junior, I’m going to take the rest of my Pre-Med classes knowing the environment and determined to get into medical school 😤😤

I'm taking it one day at a time and continue praying that God would grant me this same opportunity. I've declared that next year I WILL receive my white coat! #whitecoat2019. I wish you all the success in the world my love. Keep shining for all to see! ❤️
