Soto Colo I know! It's so annoying. If hundreds of people have done it, it's possible for all of us. You just need the right conditions set up to get there, and that's it you're good to go :)
Holy - so good to know most top kids DON'T go to class. I'm a 3rd year med student in Australia and have NEVER gone to a non-mandatory class and have consistently been top of class for last 2 years. It is much more efficient use of your time to just study yourself. Keep it up bro!
What you said about rising to the bar really resonates with me. School starts in 1 week and I'm taking 18 hours (mostly science credits) while juggling a job, scholarship requirements and leadership positions. I can do it, thank you.
The missing events and weddings and seeing your friends out there thriving hit me like a brick. Already seeing and feeling this as a premed but gotta do what you gotta do right 🤷🏽♀️
You and Shaman are so different. I should watch your videos in the morning when I need a boost of motivation. Your voice is like the guy in the background of a motivational video of people climbing a mountain or winning a game lol.
Thanks for this video! It’s so refreshing to hear someone optimistic! I’m still a premed and it’s so disheartening when your pushing and struggling mid semester but you have deeply rooted reasons and passions for why you feel called to medicine that far surpasses the financial aspect and all around you everyone is telling you “don’t do it. Just become a CRNA. Medical school is so hard you won’t be able to have a family or blah blah blah.” So when you are struggling and all you are hearing is everyone telling you you are nuts and wasting your time, it’s easy to have a tiny voice in the back of your head make you question if you are right or if they are just negative because my reasons aren’t theirs. So I’ve just kept pushing on and working hard because their negativity has not changed my convictions of why I want this so bad but it’s still nice to finally see someone say something remotely positive! I really appreciate the time you put into this! It’s the first video I’ve seen of yours and I am looking foreword to watching mor of your content over winter break. Thanks again! 🤓👊🏻
If you don’t know I’m always the first viewer and commenter for Puneet’s channel as well. Expect me everywhere my friend. And great video.... very true and puts things into perspective.
Jas Wo Am I wrong? Most of what a doctor does involves putting you on long-term pills when they should be telling you to take care of your health instead. But they got to get that money, baby!
I completely agree with what you said. Hard things are still doable; the most intimidating thing is when someone tells you that something is “too hard.” I’m a freshman in highschool, and they opened up AP classes for us to take. I decided to take one, as well as honors chemistry and geometry, and a gifted language arts class. Although my teachers vehemently discouraged me not to take it, I did and it was absolutely doable as long as I managed my time. Thank you for the video!
finally, a video with quality insight and advice. I like how this video focuses on what medical school is right for a person and how that person can grow in the program instead of making a youtube viewer feel incompetent or doubtful of their abilities to become a doctor. 10/10 video! Thanks for posting.
Thank you so much for this video. Your mentality about life "I can do it, even if people tell me it's hard" is something I wish I had a lot earlier. All throughout high school my counselors/my parents would tell me taking too many AP classes/doing that extra thing was too hard, and I would believe them and second-guess myself. I admire your hard work, belief in yourself, and your ambitions!
This is a video I really needed to watch, I always have people telling me I'm not going to be able to handle med school, thanks so much for changing my outlook, now I feel like I can do this
Thanks I needed to hear this. I'm still trying to pursue becoming a doctor, but some days it's tough hearing how tough it is getting into medical school and how tough medical school is. I'm constantly wondering if I am good enough. Hearing your thoughts and experience just made me feel a lot better. I'm not afraid of hard work, so I will just have to keep grinding away.
Damn, dude, it might be dangerous for you to be a doctor. You can't even focus during a conversation---and you're going to have people's health in your hands? You can't even defend what a doctor does, just say "I love doing it." YOU are what's wrong with medicine today, becoming a doctor with absolutely no idea of why you're even doing it. Goddam.
I genuinely love your videos as it gives me great motivation to reach out to my goals, and not only keep thinking about doing the hard-work without getting my hands dirty in the first place!
Thank you! I needed this inspiration so bad! I quit studying recently for the mcat because I thought if I didn’t do well and get in this cycle I would give up. I’m 28 so I feel super old. I want to do preventative medicine and I’m afraid I won’t be able to use nutrition therapy like I want to. I’m super into Buddhism so that is dictating how I feel. As far as wanting to live a simple life. I definitely think I can handle it and would rather study and learn new things than have a family. But I also want to travel most of my life and I feel like with this video I’ve realized that “having a life” and traveling is possible. Coming from someone who has self esteem issues and never considered myself good enough to become a doctor, thank you!
This couldn’t be more true. Wish I could’ve heard this advice back when I was in high school and college. Thanks for the video! I hope it inspires others to pursue medicine/ tougher challenges in life ♥️. Before I entered my vet school, I was extremely fearful of having to give up on some personal things in my life but after completing my first year, I realized I didn’t have to. People are always trying to scare you but you just have to believe in yourself and your capabilities.
After watching this video, all I can say is WOW. I'm an M2 and have thought the exact same thoughts (from counselors stopping me from taking 6 AP classes at once to seeing all of my friends getting married and not being able to attend every wedding). Your explanations are SPOT-ON - keep up the great work! :)
I’m a senior right now and ever since I started high school and got exposed to the medical field through my health science clinical classes, It always encouraged me more to become a doctor. When I got stressed out i always doubted that I’d ever be a good doctor because I’ll never have time for me to be me. I felt like I didn’t believe in myself enough and this dream is going to always stay a dream. This vid helped me realize that everything is possible and I shouldn’t doubt myself just yet. Thank you so much :)
Thanks mate!! Can't wait to ALSO hear the non-medical stuff. Thanks for all your motivation, I agree, if you learn how to manage things well, there's anyways time for a more balanced life!
Family Pratice is an underappreciated job for all the time and hard work put into it. You may not be using all the skills and knowledge you've acquired often but seeing families respect/admiration for you is rewarding. With that said I'll never work at a family clinic again.
Thank you for making this video it really helped clarify and confirm the advice I have heard from doctors as advice on going into the medical field. I agree with your point about if you push your self you will be able to do it. I have had a lot of people say that as a junior in high school that I cannot handle being a competitive athlete and be in a two-year program of college classes plus high school, AP classes, IB classes, and honors classes. Your point is exactly right people can handle it if they try hard enough and have enough determination I have been able to. Thank you for the advice!
im a sophmore at UCF and your positivity on the whole outlook of college and letting us know we are capable of greater things than we thought were possible, just got you another subscriber!! definitely checking back in for more videos!! keep up the great work
Here I am thinking Shaman and Puneet are the super inspirational ones and then you come to blow that away!😁 great video!! And I am someone who is not involved in medicine
It was hilarious when you talked about going to class. Professors at my school always complain about us not going to lecture. Literally 6 people out of 70 will show up. But yeah I agree, you don't necessarily have to put your entire life on hold for 4 years but as with everything, there are priorities. Sometimes you have to choose your career, your future, etc over that wedding, party or family event. Such is life. *shrugs*
Thank you thank you thank you! So refreshing and awesome to hear someone make a video encouraging people to make the commitment of aiming to become a doctor if it's something they want
People have always told me the next stage of something (usually academics) is always going to be difficult, but ironically i find it has always been easier for me thankfully. I never get scared though some doubts creep in tbh but in the end I’m always like “it wasn’t bad after all” ...All that being said, I wish I watched this video 4yrs ago/wished this video existed then... would’ve been so much of a boost 💕
Thank you so much for sharing with us fact that medical school is not that gloomy. I am quite relieved now and more confident on my decision. Thank you 🙏
Thanks for sharing this. Can you do a video of how to find out about medical schools? For example how to know the study pattern or curriculum of a med school. Right now, i have the idea to call different med schools to ask them about this before sending my amcas application to them. What is your opinion on this? Do you have any other methods? Also i know scholarships are almost a no-go area when talking about medical schools, but do you happen to have any info on this
I’m currently in Year 12 and this video has definitely encouraged me more to study medicine, as I was seriously contemplating whether I was willing to sacrifice major amounts of time in my life. But as you said, various choices lead to various standards to push yourself to
Thank you so much for this video. I'm in the middle of the application cycle and I'm seriously going to keep these tips in mind as I decide where I end up.
Graduating nursing school in a couple months and really thinking about Med school. Just doing my research. Thank you for this video! Great information.
I’m taking a year off from medical school and this was a nice confirmatory video. I would challenge I gave a lot more than what he mentions, or maybe it took me more off guard. Either way thanks for being one of the optimists in the world of med.
Thanks for the encouragement. I am married with two children and it scares me that pursuing my MD will cause me to neglect my family. This video has made me more at ease with the hope of being able to be good in school and be a good father and husband.
Just became an MS1 and our classes aren’t mandatory, but I feel kinda paranoid of missing things so I go, but then afterwards I’m like “why the heck did I just waste my time” lol
I'm taking 7 AP classes in my last year of high school because I'm getting a head start this summer. I want to go to medical school in the future and get into a five-year ophthalmology residency. I heard that doctors usually get paid during residency, but does the salary depend on what kind of residency you're going into?
As soon as u said California VS Louisiana I could’ve dropped dead ahahah. I’m in my first year of pre med and I’m struggling! I love y’alls videos and they’re encouraging. Thank you and good luck with school too:)
I am so excited to go to college next year, I am still deciding my short term goals for undergraduate. I am planning between getting my masters in biology to teach and adding my prerequisite for pre-med, or taking public health and minoring in research. My long term is get my spot reserved at my university in the D.O. program.
Well said, I try to to never complain or joke like others saying that I should have done something else regardless of having only four hours of sleep during the week, being scolded by my professors who are obviously doctors, and sometimes sleeping for only 30 min throughout the years... haha its all about discipline once your in and staying motivated.
Hello! Can you please talk about your schedule to prep for the SAT's? And what resources you used/what an ideal bachelors would be to prepare for taking an MCAT!! Thank you this would be *extremely* helpful and life changing!
Hey I really appreciate you making this video. I don't feel like there are a lot of this topic videos that are straight to the point. I can't wait for more :)
music actually was a huge factor for me, that just kept me going, other than that just the pressure to learn the material. you actually will want to learn just like you'd want to master hitting those notes if you're a singer practicing for a performance.
Man I remember in my undergrad when I switched programs things didn't workout properly, I wasn't able to take classes the way I wanted to since there was no room so I had to take like 4 electives and 1 core class, so I was left with taking like 5 core classes in the semesters after that. People kept saying there's no way I could handle it, but once I did it they didn't say anything else lol. My advisor at first didn't recommend it, he said I could if I wanted to but he said it'd be hard etc, but then my final semester he encouraged me to lmao.
Thank you so much for this. It makes me feel less apprehensive about striving for med school. My biggest fear was giving up my social life for med school.
it's hard to take the profession srsly anymore since they changed the residency requirements from 80 hrs a wk to 40 hrs a week. Now it's a party profession and party school just like law & the law school where they have 1 exam a yr/semester for the entire class... althought it's practically ur grade. but still -- hard to find any MD that studies or knows their stuff ...
YourStudyMate I can agree with you that during residency, significant sacrifices must be made. Once you are an attending however, in general you can craft the life you want based on location, hours, pay, etc..
YourStudyMate Also I can guarantee that to be a successful entrepreneur, you have to work just as hard as a resident if not harder. Even then, an entrepreneur is not secured a significant salary at the end and the company can fail at time.
Oh my gosh I really wish my classes weren't mandatory😭 ALL of my classes, even freakin lectures with audiobook professors are mandatory and it makes my life MISERABLE. I have no time for anything and days with classes from 8-8 is just so impractical cause I have time to eat in between and by the time I get home, I'm dead on my bed☹️
Big Question!!!!!! Can you possibly ever graduate medical school early? Just by taking out a research year or clinical rotation year or taking the USMLE 1 earlier or etc?
I am halfway through medical school and I feel that my mental health has greatly deteriorated. There are many days where I am frozen in bed and overwhelmed by the workload. How can I find the motivation again?
why is there an updated version of USMLE each year as well as the Kaplan MCAT? does the material change drastically? and same question goes to the Fundamentals of Pathology book. I'm really curious to know if I can study any of these if it was a later year like 2015, 16, or 17. Thank you by the way for all the great videos!
Other channels: DON'T DO IT, don't follow your dream it's too hard.
This channel: Do it, you can do it. You'll be fine just believe in yourself
Soto Colo I know! It's so annoying. If hundreds of people have done it, it's possible for all of us. You just need the right conditions set up to get there, and that's it you're good to go :)
Soto Colo My bro, you're gonna destroy it! I believe in your genius, so you should believe it too. Good luck with the hustle :)
Tz to
I lost a bunch of "friendships" due to my commitment to studying, and this is exactly what I needed to hear. That it's normal. Thank you.
theravenjoie And no matter how you explain no friend will ever understand if there not in med school I bet
Relatable
They weren’t your real friends then. My solid friend group have been supportive of me all the way so far
The payoff will be worth it. Your friends will judge you but the payoff is worth it in the end. Just gotta keep those people that will support you
11:48 "Go for it, go for it and be a doctor." I just really needed to hear that. Thanks for this video!
What you need to hear is "Find a different job."
Kevin Day how about you shut up and let people do whatever the fuck want? stop being so negative
you're gonna be a GREAT doctor one day!
Holy - so good to know most top kids DON'T go to class. I'm a 3rd year med student in Australia and have NEVER gone to a non-mandatory class and have consistently been top of class for last 2 years. It is much more efficient use of your time to just study yourself. Keep it up bro!
Rish do the teachers give you the material to study and you just show up and take their tests? Sorry, I’m super confused 😂
Angelica they record their lectures
Hey which medical school are you doing to?
What you said about rising to the bar really resonates with me. School starts in 1 week and I'm taking 18 hours (mostly science credits) while juggling a job, scholarship requirements and leadership positions. I can do it, thank you.
Good luck! That's a lot.
wow that's super amazing, you got this!
How are you doing it?
Good luck..med school in italy.. 40 hours a week for me...but on the bright side I can do the USLME .. so worth it ..I guess😂
The missing events and weddings and seeing your friends out there thriving hit me like a brick. Already seeing and feeling this as a premed but gotta do what you gotta do right 🤷🏽♀️
You guys should update the pic of the channel. All three of you should be in the pic wearing your coats!
You and Shaman are so different. I should watch your videos in the morning when I need a boost of motivation. Your voice is like the guy in the background of a motivational video of people climbing a mountain or winning a game lol.
Literally about to cry. This was so inspiring!
8:06 dang that mindset 😫🙌🏽
GOALS 😂

*Serving truth tho*
I didn't know Abishek Bachan was your brother.
Suraiya Shiwnarain is it??
love food you serious mate 🤣
After seeing this comment i started to actually find similarities between him and Abhishek
Suraiya Shiwnarain THATS WHAT I THOUGHT TOO
😂😂😂😂
If you don’t know I’m always the first viewer and commenter for Puneet’s channel as well. Expect me everywhere my friend. And great video.... very true and puts things into perspective.
Kobe analogy 🤣🤣🤣 good video. I feel more ready than ever for my journey. Thanks for this pep talk.
Why do you want to be a doctor---besides the money.
The realest review of Med School. Thanks for the positivity, it has put all my worries to sleep
He is VERY attractive
That's what u took from this video?
Flyer Whopper yes
Omg yes! I only clicked on the video to watch him. Who cares about the content lol
Anna Paula Lol, I'm a guy but I do see it. He's rocking that eastern look
yasmin hassan thats quite a bit rude because he does put a lot of work and effort in these vids :/
You guys inspire me😊😊😊 2 years away from applying.
Kevin Day dude wtf
Jas Wo Am I wrong? Most of what a doctor does involves putting you on long-term pills when they should be telling you to take care of your health instead. But they got to get that money, baby!
Kevin Day You're such a fucking idiot
@@kevinday1697 when ur sick I hope she's your doctor so u can feel her paycheck.
I completely agree with what you said. Hard things are still doable; the most intimidating thing is when someone tells you that something is “too hard.” I’m a freshman in highschool, and they opened up AP classes for us to take.

Kevin Day this is a dumb comment are u even a doctor?
Maliya Mcqueen he’s not a doctor I’ve seen all his comments and he’s just spreading negative light in the medical field
I like how you are both quick to insult me---yet neither one of you have made ONE argument against anything I've said. Typical.
Kevin Day because what you say doesn’t scare me from pursuing my dreams sorry, I love what I do and enjoy medical school 😊
Damn, dude, it might be dangerous for you to be a doctor. You can't even focus during a conversation---and you're going to have people's health in your hands?

I’m still debating on medical school but In my heart I would love to help others ❤️
The most practical and honest video of a med student. Thanks man.
Everyone always speaks on how hard it is. No one gives us the confidence or assurance that we can do it! Good video.
this video literally made my day. other channels: its exhausting you wont make it
this channel: you can do it. go for it!!!!!!! tysmmmmmmm
im a sophmore at UCF and your positivity on the whole outlook of college and letting us know we are capable of greater things than we thought were possible, just got you another subscriber!! definitely checking back in for more videos!! keep up the great work

The trifecta theory is super interesting- thanks for the insight! Great video!
Thank you so much for sharing with us fact that medical school is not that gloomy. I am quite relieved now and more confident on my decision. Thank you 🙏
Thanks for sharing this. Can you do a video of how to find out about medical schools? For example how to know the study pattern or curriculum of a med school.

Dam I’ve wondered the same thing! Like when people say they’re interested in a specific specialty and know the right schools for that?
Does anyone know what's his medical school?
let me know when you find out !
I’m currently in Year 12 and this video has definitely encouraged me more to study medicine, as I was seriously contemplating whether I was willing to sacrifice major amounts of time in my life. But as you said, various choices lead to various standards to push yourself to

Graduating nursing school in a couple months and really thinking about Med school. Just doing my research. Thank you for this video! Great information.
Honestly still don't know who is older you or Shamaan
Snappers-snoop him
Funny thing i always thought harman was the goofy and youngest one among them. Turns out he’s even more hardworking and the eldest 😅
I thought I was going crazy bc I didn’t know this was a different person😂but i knew something was off
I’m taking a year off from medical school and this was a nice confirmatory video. I would challenge I gave a lot more than what he mentions, or maybe it took me more off guard. Either way thanks for being one of the optimists in the world of med.
What university do you go to?
love the basketball analogy lol you could take Kobe bro no doubt, second-year med student and hope to get a step score close to yours
Thanks for the encouragement. I am married with two children and it scares me that pursuing my MD will cause me to neglect my family. This video has made me more at ease with the hope of being able to be good in school and be a good father and husband.

I'm taking 7 AP classes in my last year of high school because I'm getting a head start this summer. I want to go to medical school in the future and get into a five-year ophthalmology residency. I heard that doctors usually get paid during residency, but does the salary depend on what kind of residency you're going into?
Dude Sah I’m pretty sure doctors have to get paid during residency due to the fact that it’s a full time intensive job
Dude Sah It depends on location, what hospital etc. Usually 50-60k.
Hey dude, thank you for this, I'm going in a slightly different path (vet school), but this was super inspirational regardless.
I like you and your family so much. So humble and hard working.
Thanks for this insightful video Harman! Looking forward to more of them!
As soon as u said California VS Louisiana I could’ve dropped dead ahahah. I’m in my first year of pre med and I’m struggling! I love y’alls videos and they’re encouraging. Thank you and good luck with school too:)
Yes so right about missing all the family and friends stuff but if you really like field and you're passionate about it's all worth it
I am so excited to go to college next year, I am still deciding my short term goals for undergraduate. I am planning between getting my masters in biology to teach and adding my prerequisite for pre-med, or taking public health and minoring in research. My long term is get my spot reserved at my university in the D.O. program.
were you and your siblings born here? I love the way you guys explain things and break it down you guys are going to be great doctors!
I think they are all born in the U.S, - I know Puneet is born in Pennsylvania and Shaman and Harman were probably born around there too
Angelica Soto referring to non white people as people of colour suggests that white people have no colour so your obviously a racist
Angelica Soto I’m not even white haha and it’s these labels that widen the racial tensions even more
Rip rMCAT 2018.
Well said, I try to to never complain or joke like others saying that I should have done something else regardless of having only four hours of sleep during the week, being scolded by my professors who are obviously doctors, and sometimes sleeping for only 30 min throughout the years... haha its all about discipline once your in and staying motivated.
You need to do vlogssss! Btw I love your stories on insta haha
Great video, great tips! Thank you so much for taking the time to help us! 💖💛💖💖
Hello! Can you please talk about your schedule to prep for the SAT's? And what resources you used/what an ideal bachelors would be to prepare for taking an MCAT!! Thank you this would be *extremely* helpful and life changing!
Hey I really appreciate you making this video. I don't feel like there are a lot of this topic videos that are straight to the point. I can't wait for more :)
How did you study for 12-5 continuously?
music actually was a huge factor for me, that just kept me going, other than that just the pressure to learn the material. you actually will want to learn just like you'd want to master hitting those notes if you're a singer practicing for a performance.
You are seriously help me so much and calm me down, I actually think I can do it now, thank you so so much you are amazing.❤️🙏🏻☺️
Man I remember in my undergrad when I switched programs things didn't workout properly, I wasn't able to take classes the way I wanted to since there was no room so I had to take like 4 electives and 1 core class, so I was left with taking like 5 core classes in the semesters after that. People kept saying there's no way I could handle it, but once I did it they didn't say anything else lol. My advisor at first didn't recommend it, he said I could if I wanted to but he said it'd be hard etc, but then my final semester he encouraged me to lmao.
What medical school do you go to?
Yale
Wow, thanks for this video! Answered a lot of questions for me! Please do more video’s
Mindset and perspective is on point. Kudos.
Thank you so much for this. It makes me feel less apprehensive about striving for med school. My biggest fear was giving up my social life for med school.
Thank you for this! This is such a great mindset, and is very reasuring for me.
it's hard to take the profession srsly anymore since they changed the residency requirements from 80 hrs a wk to 40 hrs a week. Now it's a party profession and party school just like law & the law school where they have 1 exam a yr/semester for the entire class... althought it's practically ur grade. but still -- hard to find any MD that studies or knows their stuff ...
How did you prep for STEP? Resources and tips, please!
You basically have to give up your whole life in order to save other peoples' lives
lol didn't he just explain how that's not true. Being successful in any career, not just medicine takes a similar amount of work..
I strongly disagree with your statement Aditya
YourStudyMate u don't need to "give up ur whole life" it's about time management stop over exaggerating
YourStudyMate I can agree with you that during residency, significant sacrifices must be made. Once you are an attending however, in general you can craft the life you want based on location, hours, pay, etc..
YourStudyMate Also I can guarantee that to be a successful entrepreneur, you have to work just as hard as a resident if not harder. Even then, an entrepreneur is not secured a significant salary at the end and the company can fail at time.
Oh my gosh I really wish my classes weren't mandatory😭 ALL of my classes, even freakin lectures with audiobook professors are mandatory and it makes my life MISERABLE. I have no time for anything and days with classes from 8-8 is just so impractical cause I have time to eat in between and by the time I get home, I'm dead on my bed☹️
oh my God! You just calmed me down. Thank you so much
As mentioned countless times. Timestamp 11:48, Thank you.
Excellent excellent video... Very great insight and perspective...
Loved this video! Exactly what I needed to hear 🙏🏽
This was encouraging and I really needed it rn
Big Question!!!!!! Can you possibly ever graduate medical school early? Just by taking out a research year or clinical rotation year or taking the USMLE 1 earlier or etc?
How do you figure out which med schools have 9-5 mandatory classes and which are structured like yours?
Thanks. Great analysis of this topic.
I’m in medical school now and it’s pretty easy compared to the real world. Dramatic much?
Really I want to be a med student but I’m scared
Can you guys do a video about getting a residency position and how to get there?
I am halfway through medical school and I feel that my mental health has greatly deteriorated. There are many days where I am frozen in bed and overwhelmed by the workload. How can I find the motivation again?
He said “playing with Kobe” 😢
why is there an updated version of USMLE each year as well as the Kaplan MCAT? does the material change drastically? and same question goes to the Fundamentals of Pathology book. I'm really curious to know if I can study any of these if it was a later year like 2015, 16, or 17. Thank you by the way for all the great videos!
Would advise us to work part time while studying
