Workshop Description:
Are you a first-generation student aspiring to become a doctor? Join us for an empowering workshop featuring a panel of medical students from UC San Diego who are members of the Latino Medical Student Association (LMSA). Hear their personal stories of overcoming obstacles, navigating the medical school application process, and thriving in medical school. Discover how their backgrounds as first-generation students have shaped their journeys and fueled their passion for healthcare and advocacy. Gain valuable insights into what it takes to stand out as an applicant and how to stay motivated throughout your pre-med journey.
This is your chance to hear directly from medical students who have been where you are—no second-hand information or misconceptions, just real experiences and practical advice from those who understand the process firsthand. Come prepared to ask your questions and get honest, insightful answers that can help you better navigate your path to medical school. Whether you’re at a community college or university, this workshop will inspire and equip you with the tools and confidence to achieve your dream of becoming a physician.
