We pick up from the previous episode to continue talking to Dashon about what happened after he revealed to me that he had been diagnosed with ADHD in high school. At this point, he's considering a Master's program to help improve his chances of getting into medical school, but his post-bac grades are hit or miss. Find out what finally gets him on track and what happens when he retakes the MCAT! 

ACCEPTED! He had low grades, low MCAT score, and ADHD to overcome. After almost 4 years of mentoring Dashon, he and I sit down to have an official, but fun conversation about his story of trial and tribulation turned triumph!

In the weeks following the death of George Floyd by a Minnesota police officer, I talk about systemic racism and its role in the healthcare system. When humanity is debated or denied, what is the impact on a system or society? How do you envision the type of doctor you will be?

After a long hiatus, I finally bring you the last part of the Anatomy of a Total Pre-med Makeover series. What does it mean to be transformed? What happens when you are transformed? How do you transform? I help you to answer these questions so that you can complete your total pre-med makeover. Its time to become the version of yourself that you've always wanted to be.

I also make mention of the Tour for Diversity in Medicine (www.tour4diversity.org). Check them out!
