Is it Possible to Succeed in Medical School Without a Background in Science? 

I’m a 2nd year medical student in Saint Vincent, Caribbean island. I didn’t have a science background before starting, it wasn’t easy at the beginning but I have adjusted fine

Based on my understanding Biology,Biochemistry,organic chemistry,cellbiology,microbiology,physiology,anatomy,Neuroscience and circulatory system.These are the fundamental blocks for medicine.If you are very good in above subject ,for sure you will graduate from medical school .

I'm a US Caribbean Medical Student as well. Studying in St. Lucia. I absolutely love your videos. To be honest, it was your channel that made me take the challenge head on to go to a Caribbean. You're an absolute inspiration. Much thanks!

This is quite the amazing channel.

You're a G. Fr. Thank you for this

I’m starting SJSM in Sept. Anguilla campus. Thanks for all your videos. I’m learning ahead of time what it’s going to be like and I really appreciate you taking time to do this.

Your story is identical to mine. Thanks for the advice and encouragement!

Medical student from Casablanca , Morocco :D your videos are amazing !!

First, congrats for the amazing helpful job! I am a follower since your first videos, and they all helped! IMG currently prepping for 2 CS. Decided to take success academy because of you, although you took it for Step 1. Chicago based rotations beginning next month! Thank you, Awesome job! Wish you all the best! Keep doing this...

Love ur videos....i always feel like ur videos end fast...would love to talk to u sometime

I have an interview on Jan 8th with St. James. I have been a Physician Assistant for 19 years with exp in Cardiac Surgery, Neurology and Orthopedics. Hope I get in and I admire your story. There’s always more to learn despite experience. Want to have more autonomy and expand surgical scope of practice.

Hey! I'm Ashley, a UBC Kinesiology alumni and a current UBC Nursing student. I am writing the MCAT in August and am looking forward to applying to schools across Canada! Technically Kin covered quite a few sciences - more so A&P, bio, gen chem, biomechanics, and social sciences. I have been self-studying the other sciences, like orgo, biochem, physics, etc. It is definitely way more stressful to do so but not impossible. I'm taking nursing to gain clinical experience and boost GPA a bit, and I am evening considering being an NP! Yay non-trad! Keep on making great videos :)

I love your videos they are so inspiring and helpful!! I am a psychology major and just recently came to the conclusion that I wanted to go into medicine. I haven't taken any serious science or math classes. What do you think about Pre med post bacc programs? do you think its even worth it to spend 2 years doing that and getting the required science classes? Should i maybe just take some science classes at a Junior college? do most US and Canadian medical schools have science pre reqs?

Your videos are full of great information. I do have one question which is have you seen any students in the age range of late 40’s or early 50’s going to medical school?

Hey Medumentary love your videos! Can you please tell me your opinions on Trinity and aimu, St Lucia?

I have a Business Administration degree from a Canadian university, but took Biology, Math, Physics and Chemistry long time ago back in a high school in Spain. I couldn't sleep all night few days ago thinking that I want a meaningful career and would like to become a doctor. After doing some research and reading the admission requirements and the content of MCAT exam, got slightly discouraged. Thank you for your video. It gave me some extra hope points. Would you recommend a school in the Caribbean? Which one?

I'm headed to SUSOM this fall! What would you recommend doing to prep for the basic science portion? I'm two years out of my biology degree in Canada and nervous of getting back into study mode... Any podcasts or tips and tricks?

Hey girl! I’m interested in in following your path. What mes school did you attended ?

I finished 4 years as an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer. Do you guys think I have a good chance of finishing med school?

Can I become a doctor without triple or double science I'm still in high school or can I choose them when I do my A levels

I commented on some previous video (I just love your videos !!)... Previous law student 👩‍🎓 here, even worked in the field 🙂. Last science courses (biology +chemistry major) in high school. No science background is required in Switzerland to study medecine, however you have to either pass an entrance exams at some universities or you can go to a university having hard exams (80 fail-rate) the first and second year, it’s up to you. I will have a lot on my plate in september 🙈

Just curious caribbean med schools do you recommend? also which one did you attend?

Hi, I just discovered your blog. What are the top 4 Caribbean schools? Also did you have to take the MCAT for your school?

I am finnish it student who like science and medical things! good to see you too :)

Hey love your videos, this related to me so much as a fellow Canadian. Thank you so much. Which med school did you go to? I was also looking to apply :)

Can apply to this medschool with my metric degree because i don't have a highschool degree yet and i,m interested in studying and love it but this is the 3rd time my pre med is very disturbed due to uncountable issues so, can i?

Since you are Canadian, Could you please tell me if OSAP loan is enough to handle the costs of moving for rotations to the US? I am afraid that i fell short on money. I am on my own. no family to help me out financially. my only hope is OSAP money. Please share your thoughts.

For anyone curious, in Canada for most medical schools, there are no prerequisite courses

First of all thank so much for your time. My name's Tinseow I some questions about medical school. I'm graduate by low so I don't have any science background but I have plan go to medical school and I'm age 34. I need more information can I start to medical school with low background and with my age 34??? Please give me some advice. I live canada calgary Alberta. Thanks my God bless you ❤️ 🙏

Hello ma'am, I am still in high school and I am doing well in Life Sciences, Mathematics and the other basic subjects but I'm not /did not do all to well in physical sciences and now I am forced to move to another subject which is not a requirement for medical school... Can I still do Medicine without Physical Sciences?

Canada has dropped all pre reqs as o late

I’m an English major and I was like, “should I add a bio minor if I wanna try to get in med school?” I’m scheduled to graduate early so that’s good. Maybe it’ll give me time to help decide. I’ve taken ANSC and other bio related classes (I’m taking microbiology 140 atm) in hope that it helps.

What are these prerequisite courses? Are they just for non science students who haven’t studied sciences in their 12 standard or Bachelors? Or is it just for Mcat and solidifying good grades and preparation for med school and getting admission!???

did you take any prerequisites or mcat?

Mam i m not gud in studies but i want to become a dr but i dn know do i can mantain m consistency in med school?! So can u please recommend me that can i go abroad for med school nd if i study hard there can i suceed as i have not studies well in mu school

My name is Mobeen, and I am 20 years old. I recently completed my O and A Levels, but I did not choose science subjects such as biology, physics, and chemistry during my studies. Due to various reasons, I was unable to pursue these subjects, although becoming a doctor has always been a dream of mine. Now, I am determined to achieve this dream and would like to understand how I can pursue an MBBS degree despite my non-traditional science background. Could you please guide me on the steps I need to take to make this possible? Specifically, I would appreciate detailed information on the following: 1. The feasibility of pursuing an MBBS degree without a traditional science background. 2. The process and requirements for applying to medical schools, particularly any prerequisites I might need to fulfill. 3. Information about the UCAT exam, including how to prepare for it, what resources to use, and where to start. 4. Any additional steps or advice on what I should do to achieve my goal of becoming a doctor. Your guidance and advice would be incredibly valuable to me as I navigate this challenging but exciting path. Thank you for your time and assistance.

Hi:) I am a registered nurse in canada and i really wanna study medecine. The thing is ... i would have to do a 2 years program here before applying to medecine here in canada. That's why I started looking for a medecine school on an island. But i would have to do 4 chemistry clases before applying. Is there anyone in the same situation? I am really confused between nurse practitioner or to go in medecine?? any advice here :)?
