My mind tends to get distracted very easily so my question is what are some good tips for staying focused and determined during pre-med, especially during late nights with little sleep?

What are some extracurricular activities I can do if I want to be a doctor and I live in the Philippines?

I'm a high school student. I want to be a doctor and I want extracurricular activities related to that. Currently, my extracurricular activities are all related to writing. I want to change that. Where I live, there aren't many opportunities. I'm open to volunteering online, joining research groups and the like. What can I do to add to my extracurricular activities? And where can I do these? Preferably in the Philippines and in Cagayan de Oro. #doctor #healthcare #medicine #pre-med

What is social life like during premed and medical school?

What are your experiences going into medicine? I've been watching a lot of youtube videos lately, and everyone that I've watched so far spends practically the whole day studying. Is medical school actually non stop studying? I do understand that medical school is hard, but there has to be some balance between free time and study time. Watching these videos are getting me nervous... #medical-school #medicine #doctor #college #pre-med

Smith or Bates?

Hi! I need to take a decision and choose the college I want to go to for the next 4 years. I got admitted to both Smith and Bates and will be playing soccer at whichever one I choose. I also plan to do Pre-Med with a Biology major. I visited both schools and absolutely loved them. If anyone attended these schools or know more about them, could you please share your experience not only academically but socially as well? Thank you so much! #SmithCollege #BatesCollege #collegedecision #college #Biology #Pre-Med

Can I get hospital volunteer hours virtually?

I want to be an ophthalmologist in the future, and I am currently a high school sophomore (10th grade). I know in pre-med/medical school admissions they ask a lot about what experience you have in the health care field, but I'm not sure how I can do that in the current times (the pandemic). I know the Mayo Clinic has some programs for high school students, and I'm applying for those - but are there other virtual opportunities that are currently available for this? Thank you! Have a great day. #high-school #experience #college #pre-med #admissions #ophthalmologist

What can I do to save years in college to become a doctor?

I am a high school student interested in pursuing a career in ophthalmology. I would like to complete my Pre-Med in 2 years, and I want to explore if there are any opportunities to do Med School in 3 years (condense the first 2 years and then rotations). I'm a high school sophomore, so what summer classes/courses can I take to save years in college? I am planning on taking several AP/Honors biology and chemistry courses through 11th and 12th grade. Could you suggest any specific courses or websites I can use? Thank you for your advice!! #doctor #student #pre-med #college #medicine

AP Chem or Ap Bio? Elective?

It is around the time of the year again where I have to pick my courses for next year and I am stumped. I want to be a doctor, so I have been focusing on classes to take to help me in the future. I love both biology and chemistry (I got A's for Bio freshman year and an A so far for Chemistry). I am also debating whether or not to take Anatomy or physics as my elective and either AP chem or AP bio as my main science course. (I also consider the option of taking a physics class offered by a school near me) If anyone could help me that would be great! Thank you! :) #pre-med #doctor #health #medicine #chemistry #biology

What kind of volunteer work should I do for anesthesiology?

I have worked with the Florida Department of Health in research, I have made blankets for the homeless and have helped develop a social media platform for pancreatic cancer awareness. I am going to school for my BS in pre med and ecology. I don't know if it is frowned upon to not get any hospital experience before my internship. But, I can't find anything that will let me get hands on experience unless I am a nurse of some sort. #internship #pre-med #anesthesia #hospital #volunteer #doctor #biology #medicine #hospital-and-health-care #anesthesiologist #college
