Pre-Med, Gap Years, and MCAT

I enjoyed medicine since the 10th grade when I took Biology Honors. However, I did not decide I wanted to be a doctor until later on. Although, this idea was in the back of my mind, as I wanted to fulfill my mother's dream of her becoming a doctor (but was unsuccessful due to personal reasons) and fulfill my Dadaji's (paternal grandfather's) dream of me becoming a doctor. After enrolling into Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, I decided to double major in Biochemistry and Acting. After my first year, I realized that if I want to truly pursue the dream of becoming a doctor, I cannot put my feet in two different areas.

Thus, I changed my major to a double major in 1) Exercise Science and Sports Studies and 2) Nutritional Sciences, and a minor in Biological Sciences, while completing a certificate in Women's Leadership.

What is PGY-2 like?

The second year residency could be quite challenging. Although in first year, you’re trying to understand how the hospital workflow is, as well as how the electronic medical record system works, you also learn how to manage patients at the level of an intern. This basically means you are admitting patients getting the most information you can, so you can interpret it with your attending and senior resident. However when you’re a senior, you’re not responsible for interpreting objective data, and ensuring that patient care is optimized. And the beginning, it is a learning curve to ensure that everything gets done. As time goes on, you become more independent to be able to make clinical decisions. Second year can be challenging, because not only are you learning how to be a senior resident to an intern, you’re also learning how to lead and teach while making clinical decisions.
