April Reflection

Total Spring Volunteer Hours: 32 April Hours: n/a This is it. The Masters of Pharmacology program is just about over. One more test on Tuesday in Cell Control and this year will be over. This past month has been a little different than how I spent March. I did a lot of my volunteering in March and a lot of preparing for exams/shelf. This month I have switched gears and started planning for the next year. I wasn’t able to do any volunteering this month but it is a goal of mine to continue volunteering during this upcoming year. I have spent almost all of my time studying for the new MCAT and making sure I am prepared for my test date in June. I have also been looking into what I will be doing all of next year. I am hoping to be doing some sort of volunteering in the medical field or working (hopefully both). This past month has been a lot of searching for opportunities in New Orleans. I want to continue to learn and grow in a hands-on setting to prepare me for Medical School. I also will be starting the reapplication process for medical school in May. As this year of Pharmacology is coming to a close, a new door is quickly opening that I am trying my best to plan for. This year has helped me more than I could have ever imagined. It was very helpful to have a year out of college to really learn about medicine and learn from other medical school students. This program has prepared me moving forward in my path to medical school. The 30 or so of us in this program have been through a long year together and hopefully we will continue to see each other this next year!
