Everyone on /sci/ bullies me when I post in the /med/ general thread and I really don't like it. It's totally demoralizing, they say things like I'm too dumb to get into medical school and I should give up. My GPA is pretty mid because I went through depression and difficult circumstances in undergrad. My MCAT is decent. I'm now applying to 1 year master's programs that have linkages to medical school, so if I get above a 3.3 in the program I'll get right into the medical school (my MCAT is already above their minimum so I just need the grades).How do I cope with the uncertainty of getting accepted into medical school or the master's programs? And how do I deal with all these people on /sci/ bullying me and saying I should give up? It's so demoralizing.
>>32570187Also everyone in my life except my father and some close physician friends seems to want to talk me out of medicine, I think because it's crabs in a bucket mentality. They don't want me to succeed because they think it makes them and their kids look worse.
>>32570187It is not bullying to be advised that competition for - and once within - med school is intense, and "pretty mid" grades may not be enough. By all means, do chase your dream, but be prepared for the real possibiklity of disappointment
>>32570236Yeah I get that but my science grades are good, I failed fucking english 101 after a death in the family and I fell into a depression. the ama said that students who earn above a 497 on the MCAT are capable of passing board exams and I scored well above that, so why can't I be a doctorwhat am I going to fucking fail out of medschool? I don't think so
>Taking trolls from 4chan this seriously I think you have more problems to worry about than your GPA.
>>32570251no well seriously it gets under my skin because i already have thoughts of self doubt and stuff
>>32570187some mediocre high school students really get their act together when they go to college and end up being good doctorssome others don'tmy sister has a friend who's a taxi driver now even tho both are doctors, she earns a lot of money but he hasn't ammounted to muchalso depression and leaving stuff midway are ok in other fields but medicine is very intense, I'm not entirely sure it can be donet. my dad is a doctor too and wanted me to be one too but I can't be arsed, it was all too much.
>>32570259Don't worry about what fags have to say about you, online and offline. They're haters. They're losers with nothing going with their lives so they bully those who do. You'll be fine, just stick to the books and get shit done.
>>32570343thanks yeah it's so fucking annoying i have haters too at my uni who want me to literally KMS because I disagree with trannyism and abortion
>>32570343Just our society is so fucking gay and I'm so sick of it. I really hope things change and I hope to be part of that change. I hate all this modern gay neoliberal faggot shit
>>32570187People get bullied for a reason and that reason is usually because they ask for it.
