Doctors mentoring #FirstGen, underrepresented minority, or disadvantaged med/pre-med students through medical school. Tag us to share advice & accomplishments!
Never underestimate the power of a first generation student. They are built different and will go very far when given an opportunity. There is a lot more packed into a single person than the average applicant.
Thank you to the Student Academic Success Programs and Research Group at @OhioState for inviting me to present my research on āSupporting First-Generation Pre-Medical Students to Increase Matriculation to Medical Schoolāand for their generous funding! @OSU_Urology#FirstGenDocs

Mentors who were comfortable in their own skin & unapologetic in their mission to advance equity gave me courage to pay it forward. As a #firstgen physician, I know how it transformed me. I educate to offer trainees the same. #RepresentationMatters@FirstGenMD#MedEd

One of the greatest reminders of why becoming a doctor was worth the stress and tears: hearing a Mexican mom say "I'm glad my doctor speaks a language that I can understand." #RepresentationMatters#MedTwitter#SiSePuede#firstgen

#MedStudentTwitter ā what were some of the expected and unexpected expenses that you encountered during your fourth year and the transition to residency? Things like Step 2 CK registration, ERAS expenses, moving costs, etc⦠@olsonplanner@Inside_TheMatch
I remember a mentor I had told me Iāll never get into medical school. During my residency interview today the PD told me āYou have the most outstanding LORs I have ever seen and everyone said youāre one of the best med students theyāve worked withā š„ŗI cried- after my interview
YāALL: lemme tell you about all the places that rejected me for residency⦠then invited me for fellowship⦠& now invite me to give Grand Rounds & Visiting Professorships! šŖš½
Remember: #Match2022 rejections arenāt personal. Youāre #StillDope!! And delayed is not denied. āš½
Omg just got my first rejection š. Ngl I shed a tear in the bathroom but Iām reminding myself that this is part of the process and it will all be ok. #WeSTILLGotThis#PedsMatch2022
From barely a 3.0 Undergrad GPA and <10 percentile MCAT, to induction into the Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) Medical Honor Society. Lifeās a trip, and Iām super humbled that I get to be a part of it. #OrthoTwitter#MedTwitter
USMLE scores have little to do with the kind of doctor you will ultimately become. These tests do not assess listening skills, empathy, kindness or compassion. Plenty of doctors with low scores are beloved by their patients.
