Perseverance

Med school wannabes listen up.

You can get in.

You will get in.

Well. You'll probably get in. Provided you aren't a complete douche, you will get in if you stick to the only rule that matters in getting in and past medical school.

Don't give up (DGU).

If you really want to get into medical school, DGU will get you in. You may not believe me now, cause you're on the other side of the fence, and you're thinking "How the hell does DGU overcome my 60% average and my thousands of misdemeanours on my police record?" IT WILL WORK. All you have to do is keep trying.

Sooner or later, somebody somewhere is going to let you in. It might take a lot longer than you expected or wanted, but if you persist you will get in. After a second degree, your chances go up. After living in the community, your chances go up. Every year you spend after school doing things will improve your chances. DGU IS THE KEY.

DGU is the key to everything in medical school too. There is no trick to learning how to start intravenous lines, to learn how to intubate people, to how to go back to work after your attending staff has just told you you're going to fail. There have been too many times when some technique or set of facts has seemed just beyond my comprehension, but persisting will yield results. DGU my friend, and you will graduate.

Navy seals and medical school. What's the difference? In the seals, they feed you. DGU.
