From Premed to Psychiatry Match: My Journey

From premed to medical school to matching into psychiatry residency — this is my full journey. In this video, I share my real experience navigating the path to becoming a physician, including my premed journey, medical school vlog moments, and what it took to successfully match into psychiatry. If you're wondering how to get into medical school, what medical student life is really like, or need honest med school advice, this video is for you.I talk about everything from premed extracurriculars, premed study tips, and the medical school application process, to surviving exams like the MCAT and USMLE Step 2, preparing for the med school interview, and what happens during residency. This is a realistic day in the life of a medical student / doctor perspective — not the highlight reel.As a URM doctor in training, I also reflect on identity, resilience, and what it means to pursue this path when the journey isn’t linear. Whether you're pre-med, a current medical student, or just curious about what medical school is like or how to become a doctor, I hope this gives you both guidance and encouragement.
