INTRODUCTION
Many people dream of becoming a doctor – and the key word in that statement is many.
The competition for admission to medical school is incredible. There are only 159 medical schools in America as of this writing – and over half of all the applicants to those schools are rejected every year.
Why do those applicants fail to get admitted? Is it their grades? Their test scores? Surprisingly, academics frequently have little to do with the medical schools’ decision-making process.
Obviously, to be a viable candidate for medical school, you have to display high academic achievement as an undergraduate student – but most applicants are aware of that requirement and fulfill it. Therefore, the medical schools often have to choose between students with similar educational credentials.
What then makes the difference?
Even though I had successfully gone through the process myself, I still didn’t know the answer. Was I just lucky enough to have done all the right things? I was curious enough to want to know why I had succeeded when most of the other applicants had failed; especially since, the fact was that many of them had good grades and good scores just like I
