Although I have managed to evade the use of a blog all my life, let the memorializing begin. However, prior to doing so, let me succinctly state the purpose and reasoning behind this blog. First, a blog will tether me to a group of people that likely share the same passion(s): medicine, the human eye and serving others. Second, a blog, like any other form of "accountability," will likely encourage me subconsciously to do the best that I can with whatever task ahead. Simply put, analogize this blog to a workout blog.
Registration period opened today for summer classes. Subsequently, I enrolled in Biology I and Biology II. The classes are not to be taken concurrently. Rather, the first one is MTWRF for almost a month, with a four hour lab. The next series is likewise.
Here is a little perspective: twenty-three years old; Student Body President in undergraduate school; 3.688 uGPA in Political Science with fifteen hours of Biology coursework; a little graduate school; and three years of emergency room experience. The latter took place during college. As you can see, the initial plan was to go to medical school; however, due to evening lab courses and life circumstances, I switched majors in order to accommodate issues at home. Albeit, I loved politics at the time.
My wife and I met in high school, dated all throughout college, and following graduation, married in June. She earned her RN BSN degree in out-of-state, while I earned my degree in Missouri. As of now, we both live in Missouri. Also, for what it is worth, she will take two courses next Fall prior to her application to CRNA school.
Following acceptance to the Post-Bac program, I purchased a few MCAT prep books. Granted it will be a while before I take it, I have already set forth a regime in order to acclimate myself with the test. Plus, considering some Biology coursework under my belt, I am reading Biology material prior to this summer. And, I am also half-way through Organic Chemistry Demystified -which I will take in the Fall along with a few other courses. Essentially, I feel as though I have one successful shot at getting into medical school, and the process demands my full attention. So, I am doing everything I can to crack the learning curve wall, and really learn the material.
Please follow my blog! I look forward to meeting fellow persons interested in getting into medical school!
