I'm so into it! 2 months ago

I wasn’t so sure what to do with life until a few months ago when I decided I wanted to become a doctor. I’m in the last year of high school and next year I’ll be Chula med school!!! (It’s one of the most prestigious universities in my country.) Now the only thing I have to do is study my ass off. LOL… I’m serious.

It will take no more than 7 months until the final result.

Every time I think about this my heart beats so fast. (or it might be the coffee)



Medical School 2 months ago

I had almost given up on the idea of going to medical school. I am in my last semester of college, and I have decided to hit the preparation and application as hard as possible. I hope it works out.

Natural Doctors 5 months ago

Natural Doctors get a bad rap or at least I am beginning to notice some of the challenges that a natural healer and lover face in todays society, but it is still possible to live a fullfilling lifestyle this way, and this is what I’ve chosen as my desired type of doctor. U never know… there is just so much to learn and so long of a lifetime to do it! I wonder if I’ll ever get to where I know my potential can lead me.

I feel like I have a plan for this at the moment, like it’s within my reach :)

Been accepted 6 months ago

paranoid dreams 6 months ago

I called King’s today – and still no decision. All they said was that I’ll here from them either today (no such luck) or tomorrow (here’s hoping).

So yes, this is getting rather ridiculous, especially seeing as I have to notify UCAS about my final choices by next Tuesday. Argh.

edit:
05/05/09

I called them again today and found out that I’ve been unsuccessful – again. Oh well, I guess it’s Queen Mary, and then perhaps the post-grad route for me.



HELP! 6 months ago

I got into Michigan and Cornell and I am having trouble deciding which to go to. Any suggestions or insight?

tick tock, the clock is getting louder, ready for me to decide 6 months ago

I still haven’t heard back from King’s yet, which is super annoying especially seeing as we’ve got to make our final decisions by May 5th (?)

I also really need to start sorting out all my student loan stuff – so so stressful >.<

P.s. Medical schools can be so retarded. My friend Sarah got rejected from ALL her university choices – even though she’s a straight A student, and by As I mean all her As are 95 – 100%, she’s done lots of volunteering and work experience ans really wants to become a doctor, if people like her don’t get in, then there’s seriously no point. This is all so disheartening.

gcombina asks, “ok my cummulative GPA isn't great (3.0)but I majored in Business so I haven't taken any science classes yet. Do I still have a chance you think if I do well on my sciences classes. The reason my GPA is 3.0 is because of my first 2 years of college.”
