I don’t know what to do to make sure I get into medical school- help?!

It sounds cheesy but I promise it’s true ; You’ve just got to be yourself. Medicine is a career and not a life, and so the university wants to know that you’re a normal person who enjoys normal things outside of Medicine. So if you like rock climbing, don’t be afraid to tell them or if you love heavy metal music, make sure you let them know! You’ll be the best doctor you can be by being yourself and trust me, that’s what the universities are really after.
