systems, and the components of the shoulder I do not feel confident in. A few reasons I chose the cardiovascular system are arterial blood gas volumes, pharmacology, and some of the test procedures. The concepts that are the most clear to me is the anatomy of the heart, most of the pathologies pertaining to the cardiovascular system, the pathology of the airway of the lungs, percussion and postural drainage procedures, airway clearance and coughing techniques, gait patterns and gait…

Personally I have always felt that the best doctor in the world is a veterinarian he can’t ask his patients what is the matter he just has to know” Will Rogers. There are animals injured and with no homes. It is a vet’s job to save their lives and make them feel cared for. A veterinarian is someone who loves and saves animals that are hurt, in order for you to be one you have to know what’s wrong with them. The educational requirements needed to become a veterinarian is a bachelor’s degree and…

needed time to study each word, memorizing is not enough. Memorizing a word signals the brain that the word has been seen, but it does not identify the word with the meaning. 2) What resources can you utilize to learn medical terminology, as well as anatomy/physiology? There are many resources that you can pull from and use to learn medical terminology, here are two that I think would be helpful. From experience I think flash cards are…

In a recent interview, an interviewer seemed very doubtful in my abilities to do well in medical school because I took my MCAT three times. This has been on my mind a lot and made me wonder if the admissions committee here had the same notion. I would like to spend time to clarify and hopefully eliminate any doubts the committee may have in my ability to do well in medical school and also be a great clinician. Some may view the fact that I took the MCAT three times as it took me three tries to…

The pressure of finding who you are or what you want to become in the future can be quite challenging. There are a list of things that I can do in life. It also take time to find who you are. It may take time for others, but once you find something that you will love to do. The best thing to do is to work for it and if it is not what you plan it would be. Well, there will be another journey that you will go through and that just makes you grow as a person. My love for math and science all…

1. Do you wish to include any comments (in addition to those already provided in your AMCAS application) to the Admissions Committee at Tufts University School of Medicine? Through my unconventional path to this point, I have encountered a number unique and broad experiences. Not all of these experiences have been becoming. Nonetheless, I have taken great strides to learn from these experiences and use them to make me into a better person. I also believe these experiences will shape me into a…

Every year thousands of prospective medical students spend hundreds of thousands of dollars paying for tuition, only to find out that a medical profession does not suit them. Many people aspire to become doctors, whether it be to help others or for the high salary. Yet, they often do not know the difficulties faced by doctors as they study in college, become admitted to medical school, complete their residency, and find the work setting that best suits them. The purpose of this research project…

Thank you for everything you have done for me throughout my high school career. I feel fortunate to have had you for both biology and anatomy. I remember our 4th quarter project freshman and junior year. In biology, I had to research a career that interested me and present it to the class. During this project, I discovered I was interested in becoming a nurse anesthetist. Junior year we had to do a similar project, but take it one step farther and shadow a person in our chosen field. At this…

I’ve always been interested in the medical field. When I was born I was in complete heart block. I had to be transferred to another hospital so they could put in a Medtronic Pacemaker. From a very young age, I was always interested in my pacemaker and how it works. Some days I would spend a lot of my time just thinking about my pacemaker and other surgeries that go on, on a day to day basis. I’ve have been told the common information about why I needed it but I always wanted to know more…

Cadaver Observation and Interaction The cadaver interaction is the last part of the HAPI lab. The cadavers are previously covered up until we reach this stage of the program to prevent undue distraction. We reveal the cadavers and students can come around to see how everything that we have observed and discussed fits and is connected in the human body (Figure 6). It is of critical importance to ensure that the students can not identify the cadavers. The face remains permanently covered and not…
