Hi Wyatt! Thanks for reaching out. It's great that you're thinking ahead. I can share how my previous students have successfully pursued careers in medicine. We start by setting goals from the first year of high school, helping students aim high academically to prepare for college, especially if they want to get into top universities for medical school. These schools have tough standards, so early preparation is key.

To increase your chances of getting into medical school, set personal goals as early as your first year of high school. Work hard to get into a good college and aim for the best universities. Picture yourself in medical school from the start—this mindset will help you succeed. Remember, medical schools have high expectations, and failing isn't an option. If you fail too many classes, you could lose your spot to someone else.

Start early, aim for academic excellence, and see yourself as a future doctor. Imagine you've already been accepted to medical school and are on your way to becoming a specialist. This vision can guide you towards your goals. As for taking gap years between college and medical school, most of my students go straight into medical programs after completing degrees like BS Biology, BS MedTech, BS Nursing, BS Pharmacy, or BS Psychology. They need to pass certain exams to get accepted into medical school.
