Are there any risks to taking courses on a pass/fail basis?

If I'm applying to medical school, would it look bad on an application if I took a few core classes, like history, on a pass/fail basis? #premed #passfail

How do I choose a thesis topic?

What kinds of things do I need to look into with my adviser and university, like resources? And what about the topic itself - how do I make sure I'm not picking something too advanced/graduate level? (I'm an undergraduate biochemistry major). #thesis

Do medical schools look favorably upon students who do study abroad?

Does it add something to medical school applications if you've studied abroad? I was considering doing a faculty-led trip, but it wouldn't be necessarily science related, so I'm not sure I could tie it into my application directly, but does it at least show well-roundedness? #studyabroad #premed

How can a student considered out-of-state be eligible for financial assistant/aid from his/her college?

How do you stay motivated as a doctor to continue with medical school?

I’m currently biology/pre-Med and I always wondering how do doctors stay motivated to stay in school so long. I know personally I have 15+ years of school including college but I was wondering how can I keep myself focused and motivated to continue. #medical-school #school #schooling

How do you defend yourself to others that question plastic surgeons confirm to the “society’s view of beauty”?

I’m an incoming freshmen in college and have always wanted to be a plastic surgeon. However, plastic surgeons have this stereotype of confirming all of their clients to a certain image and are in it for the money. How do you, as a surgeon, defend your occupation? #plasticsurgery #surgerons...

I am a very hard worker and will do anything to get my work or job done however, I am also a person to get very overwhelmed and stressed out because of it. Would double majoring be worth my time and stress or should I try to stick to one major?
