How to succeed in medical school: Medical School is hard

            For some students medical school is a breeze but it is not for the majority. For most of us medical school is quite hard. I have to work really hard to do well, to succeed. Even then there are stumbling blocks. You might feel you are not good enough, you might  fail an exam or even fail a class. However so long as you stand back up, put your head back in the books you will succeed. Make a plan on how you'll study and follow it. Get help if you need to, get help from counselors, friends, the internet; dont be too proud. And the most important thing I would say is test yourself. Always test yourself by doing sample questions, sample practical exams sample everything to see where you lie. Enjoy this motivational video and listen to the words of Gary Raser in the back ground. It is not about medical school per se but principles of success are universally applicable.
