im not even in med school and i feel step 1 tension

I just got accepted today.. ohhh booyy...

I'm only in highschool, but this video gets me excited for the journey.

I’m a freshman pre-med and whenever I’m feeling stressed and burnt out, I watch your videos to remind me what I’m doing this for. Thank you.

I’m a nursing student dropout because I felt like I went that route because I was afraid of the rigors of med school… but I couldn’t help but shake the feeling that I’d regret it for the rest of my life… so I decided to follow my dream… I am a pre-med student now at 28 years old and I can’t wait for the journey… just remember if your dream doesn’t scare you, it’s not big enough haha that’s what I told myself 🙏🏾

I got stressed watching this video lmfao

So much respect for those who go through this process. I couldn’t do it 😂

I’m on my last year of med school here at Ontario! Woohoo 🙌🏼 🎉 If you’re thinking of going to med school, DO IT! I made lots of friends that I think will last a lifetime, it’s a great environment, although sometimes it will feel like it’s beyond your knowledge, but don’t give up just because of that, it’s a rewarding experience as the years go by! And good luck! Ain’t no baby OTW going to stop me from achieving my dreams of being a doctor! It was definitely an unplanned pregnancy but my friend who is the father of our child is definitely going to help me through it all hopefully, but I know for sure my sister and family will 😆, I was pregnant at 16, a mother at 17, I still graduated high school, college, and university, so I believe I can still achieve my MD even if I have an infant with me. I so can’t wait for next year!

I'm not even in medical school but I like your medical school videos explain how it works.

Why am I watching this im a freshman in high school who doesnt even want to become a doctor lol

When you're 5 years away from med school but you cant help but prepare now Edit: just found out there is a mini war in the comments, I don't worry about it, I am relaxing and having fun by hanging out with friends and stuff😂😅

Medical school was one of the best years of my life. It was easier and more fun than college because I studied things I was actually interested in for my future. Yes Step 1 was a pain to study for but it was an easier exam than the MCAT. Third year was great because you actually got to see and learn from patients. Medical school was definitely a breeze compared to residency!

I'm only 8th grade and this gets me ready for the journey! This video motivated me to study more and hard.

He’s right. Med school was some of the best years of my life. Getting to dissect cadavers in first year, learn physical exam skills in second year, see patients in third and fourth years, and scrub in on surgeries. It was demanding and rigorous, with all the lectures, labs, studying, and exams, but an enjoyable journey all the same.

I just got accepted to medical school, and this video is so motivating! I can’t wait to document my journey through med school 👩🏽‍⚕️

Definitely feeling that step 1 tension.

this is all i want for my life.. i really really hope i can do this

I'm just in highschool and I'm really interested in biology and medical field ever since 6th grade and I wanna convince and prove to my family that I can get in a medical university and I'm hoping for the best!

Starting medical school this August 2019 and this video was perfect timing! I'm looking forward to 3rd year when I finally get to see patients at the hospital

I am still in high school studying to become a neurosurgeon one day. I am doing my best to prepare myself for the life long responsibility I will have in the future.

I'm in 8th grade. I know I have a lot of time before me but, becoming a doctor specifically a dermatologist has always been my dream. My parents never forced me to do it. They understand as they both work in the health care field. I don't regret it. I know it won't be easy but, I know I can do it. Be proud of myself and make my family proud.

You should make for your next video Residency. I also probably like maybe third year.

Im just in 5th grade and so much motivated by your vids

This makes my BScN (bachelor of sci in nursing) program look like a cake walk! Huge amount of respect for the brave souls who do this

These videos help SO MUCH. As a non-traditional student who had a different career before, Mortgage Loan, then fire/EMS and Tour bus driver for rock and roll groups, I finally feel mature enough to take on my dream head on!

i got anxiety just watching this 😦 Rethinking my life choices right about now..

I just dropped out of school. Don’t know why I’m watching

This makes me really excited about medical school. I'm going into year 11 (junior year, i think) and I've wanted to be a doctor for the longest time. Watching videos like these remind me why I'm studying hard now.

I'm in middle school but I'm so hyped for Med School, have been dreaming to become a surgeon and to save lives since forever. If you read this I wish for you to achieve all your dreams and goals

I'm entering a Pre-med program this fall and this makes me so excited to meet my goals of becoming a surgeon--my ultimate goal from the time I was four years old!

I'm fresh out of the womb and nearing kindergarten, this videos shows everything I need to know

I'm a freshman in aerospace why can't I stop watching this

Lol I’m not even in medical school nor am I even interested in medical school lol, but this was interesting to watch and I’m have so much respect for people that choose to become a doctor!

I’m here because I love greys anatomy but this is too much *Update: I am studying business instead*

I'm a med student from India and I'm just here to get to know about how med schools in India are different from America. I'm shocked that there are so many differences 🤯

I swear ima come back to this video in a few years time when hopefully GOD willing im accepted 😭😩🙏🏾 its gonna be one heck of a ride lol

Okay, road to being an anesthesiologist here we go

I wanted to be a neurosurgeon but looking at this I won't be able to do this, not with my anxiety and overall idiocy. So chill gotta find a new dream job

I’m a pre-med bio major and I can’t wait to find myself through all of this hard work. I’m looking forward to the ob/gyn clinical rotations.

I went to medical school a long time ago (1988-1992). USMLE wasn’t a thing yet. Back then it was the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME) parts 1, 2, and 3. Similar exams and pressure though. Residency applications back then were via the National Residency Matching Program (NRMP). Probably similar to the current setup. It was like military boot camp…I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything but I wouldn’t want to repeat it either.

After watching this video, I am excited to take on this arduous and challenging task to achieve my goal to treat patients!

i’m 13 and yet watching this video excited for everything that’s going to happen in the future

I am literally a freshman in highschool and I want to be either an orthopedic surgeon or an cardiologist. Am I the only who is kinda of excited for the work the comes with med school? Like although it’s a lot of work and studying, your learning new things and the process and you are going to sound hella smart when your talking to patients and othe r people. I am kinda scared but not at the same time cause it’s all a part of a the process.

Did you find that it was easier to make friends in Med School than during your undergrad? Sincerely, a severely-introverted matriculant.

I’ll be back when I am a med student already, currently a grade 10 student. Long way to go but 1 thing for sure is I am gonna be a doctor!

I'm a freshman in highschool that recently got accepted into a biomedical academy for my sophomore year. Let's hope in the next eight years, Med school will get easier

I am first looking forward to being accepted into medical school. Next, it'll probably be the rotations. I am particularly interested in OB/GYN

I love how for closed captioning when you said “ERAS”, it turned it into “ear ass”

Next year I'll be taking the college entry exams...I have a long journey ahead of me but when I think of why I wanted to be a doctor in the first place, it helps me push through. I'm gonna work so hard to get there. 🙌🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

since everyone is sharing how excited they are for the journey of becoming a doctor, ill share mine. i’m 12 and have always wanted to go to med school, so this video made me really psyched.

" find your group of friends " Cant relate

This was a great video. I bet the satisfaction for completing medical school and starting residency must feel overwhelming.

Totally worth it :)

decided to drop the dream. best of luck o those who persevere

Can you do a video on different specialities and how you decided your specialty? I know I want to go into medicine but I have no idea what specialty I want to do

yeah it takes 4 years to complete the basics. my dad is an neurosurgeon and is very high ranked and it took him 12 years to complete his special

Yep! More and more study time. I am in my final year of med school and it's still a lot of studying.

Lord have mercy Fall 2020 start. My BP went up watching this. Thinking how old I will be Residency 😱

Wow. I didn’t know US med school system was so different, interesting video. Here in Perú, we do 03 years of university based lectures -> 03 years of clinical practice -> 01 year of internship = 07 years before leaving mes school and getting a MD. After that, we spend 01 year working on rural communities. An finally we apply for residency, which can take 03-05 years depending on the specialty.

going to be a senior in HIGH SCHOOL but i still watch this and god, i'm ready and excited to take the ride!!!

My favorite classes were physiology and pharmacology. And my favorite rotation was Internal Medicine. 😍

I am only in six grade and my dream is to become a doctor and this video is literally helping me so much I seriously can’t wait for the future!

I made it to yeaf 2 yay🙌......thank you for motivating me

im still a high school student and im already watching this

I feel stress and pressure from just watching this!

I’m not in pre-med nor do I ever plan on attending medical school. I just watch these type of videos sometimes as a coping mechanism for my anxiety.

The system is so different here in Europe...

dont give up future doctors!!1

Grey's Anatomy has me questioning whether or not I want to be a doctor😂, I mean I wanted to since I was a kid but stuff happened that just knocked me off course. I hope I could get back on the horse. Your videos are really inspiring👍

I’m going into eighth grade and man this gets me hyped for the journey of becoming a anesthesiologist

Oh i thought ERAS standed for Extra Ridiculous Atrocious Standards

I’m not pursuing the medical field but this is interesting to watch nevertheless 😆

Thank you Although Step 1 was difficult to prepare for, it was a simpler test than the MCAT. The third year was fantastic because you got to interact with and observe people. Medical education was undoubtedly much easier than training!

Who else wants to be a psychiatrist?

I wish you also acknowledged that there is a DO degree with COMLEX 1/2 board exams..but it’s okay lol. Great video! I just matched orthopedic surgery and will be graduating next month 😊

I wish I watched this video before my 4th year

I'm gonna get here. Only in high school, but I promise you I'll be there

Great video! As usual. Always enjoy these videos. Lots of great information

Just the video I have been waiting for!!! Love you Dr.J!

Dr. Jubbal, Could you do a video of all the subjects in the medical school curriculum? I am currently going to nursing school. I would like to take classes to prepare me for medical school other than MCAT prerequisites.

Man I wish there was a channel like this for dental school, these videos are amazing

I'm an engineering researcher but this video was interesting

I love how I'm watching this as a softmor in high school

Turn on the subtitles at 5:29

You have good taste in music thank you for the advice

Great video! However you could've included OMS as well since they run parallel to MD MS.

You sir, are doing god’s work. Thank you.

Awesome video homie! If you’re competitive enough on paper for specialties that aren’t super competitive like anesthesia or EM, are audition rotations all that important?

I’m only in high school but these vids give me such inspiration and motivation. I can’t wait to achieve my dreams

could you make a video about getting into residency into the US for international students?

i was filled with anxiety and stress as a pre medical student in india..its one of the hardest fights to crack the NEET exam. but after watching this i found out the truth that its juat a phase.. and in our slang....picture abhi baaki hai... thank you Dr.jubbal for making me analyze the real hard fact sof struggles for bieng a dedicated doctor for a lifetime.i came out of my pain and fear for a silly entrance examination

I love this video....

Just gonna enter med skl entrance exam....this vedio kinda exhaust me cause u feel the tension already....but pretty exited 4 this whole new journey.. . Wish me guyssss ^-^

"the sense of accomplishment you feel for completing the most rigorous professional degree in the world" How does everyone feel with this comment made by Dr Jubbal? Personally, this idea excites me

🌱🙌🙏 this really gets me excited and thrilling

idk why i’m watching this, i’m in 8th grade and now i’m stressed out 😂

So helpful. Looking forward to MD Biochem

I really want to become a nurse but I feel like I won't be able to handle the stress/ I'm won't be good enough and I'll never reach my goal

I am only highschool but i am enjoying watching medical videos here in youtube, and hoping to be a good surgeon in my future 🙂
