ADVICE FOR PRE-MEDS AND PRE-DENTALS | TIPS FROM A DUKE UNIVERSITY STUDENT

Hey guys! Today's video in my back to school series is advice and tips for freshmen who are thinking about medical school or being on the pre-med path! I go to Duke University where we have plenty of people who are planning on going to medical school. I was a pre-med for my first year in college and now I am pre-dental and they are basically the same path, so I thought I'd share my advice on what I've learned and what I wish I had done differently! See the timestamps below for the topics if you want to hear more about specific ones :)
