To say these past 18 months was a roller coaster would be an understatement. It always takes videos like this for me to reflect on just how far I have come, and the many lessons I have learned along the way. Today is an extremely long (sorry) but real medical student's perspective of the pre-clerkship years of medical school, reviewing the aspect of the process that YOU should know before entering medical school. Hopefully this helps the current or prospective med student wondering what in the world they got themselves into. Listen to this like a podcast since it's so long and I want to just thank you all for being part of what has made my med school experience so meaningful.
