And below is a collage compiled of 7 Congratulations, and 2 rejections. Wow! I remember crying when I had not won the Gates Millennium or QuestBridge Scholarships. Those applications were insanely intense and I worked really hard on them (inserts crying face). But hey! You win some, and you lose some, right? RIGHT. And here is my dedication to patting yourself on the back when you do accomplish something! While the things you seemed to have worked the hardest for don't always fall into your lap, remember to be happy and thankful for the other things that you did accomplish which mean just as much! And whoever you are reading this, in which every stage of your medical school journey, please apply to scholarships! I cannot stress that enough. It's tiring, and sometimes annoying, and trust me, I know about those extensive essays. However, you feel great after having won one, or two. These scholarships are out there, and organizations are willing to give them to you! In my above post, you can find yourself a list of scholarships to apply to. Goodluck, and may the odds be forever in your favor! Just remember: you win some, and you lose some.
