    I love to see a fellow percussionist who is also interested in medicine! I competed in marching bands and indoor winter percussion ensembles for a few years during high school and my freshman year of college! I’m currently prepping for the MCAT but happy to see that a fellow percussionist is succeeding!

    Hi Michael!
    Thank you so much for the helpful video! 😊
    Can you please do a study routine or best study strategies that have worked for you in college? I would be very grateful.

    Can you please make a video on your Research and Clinical experience? Go in depth. I would like to know how you got both Research and Clinical oppurtunities, what to expect, any knowledge that needs to be known before pursuing these oppurtunities, how to manage course work and both oppurtunities, etc. Please and Thank you!
    I am a Junior Biology Student (due to dual enrollment credits) and I have 3 years to do everything. My knowledge is rusty because I have not started my main courses (starting next semester) and I want to shadow and do research but am anxious because I don't know if I can handle it just yet. Eventually I will have to, but I would like to start early.

    I currently have my BSN I am only 22 years old. I am currently taking my science pre reqs for med school I only need 7 classes to finish. I live in Texas so I will be applying to my state schools. Is there any tips you can give me of anything extra I can do? I currently work 3 days a week and have a flexible schedule to take the rest of my pre reqs.

    • @michaelgongwer
      @michaelgongwer  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      That’s a unique but cool situation! I would just make sure your activities demonstrate that you are committed to becoming a doctor as opposed to continuing as a nurse. So if possible mix in a good amount of physician shadowing and/or research since I assume you already have a lot of patient exposure with the nursing degree! And obviously do your best to get good grades in the prerequisites and do well on the MCAT

  • @BamCam22YT

    Is getting into D.O. Or M.D. school unrealistic with a 3.5 gpa w/ good extra curricular, LOR’s, and MCAT?

    • @michaelgongwer
      @michaelgongwer  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It's not unrealistic (especially DO), just apply broadly and make sure your essays are really strong!

      Michael Gongwer good advice about essays. I didn’t have standout stats and interviewed at good schools because I worked hard on my personal statement. I help students with their personal statements with my TH-cam channel. Check it out for free tips and tricks.

    Can you make a videos talking more about your rejections and do you think your extracurricular was the only reason those schools didn’t send you an acceptance letter?

    • @michaelgongwer
      @michaelgongwer  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It's really hard to say why the rejections came, I'm sure it wasn't the exact same reason for every school. The extracurriculars probably played a big role but it also could have been where I went to undergrad, essays, or something else completely random. This isn't exactly a transparent process haha
