Ep. 14: Timing the Premed Journey: Part II

Applying to medical school starts with putting our best foot forward. In Part II of Aspire Premed’s “Timing” series, Dr. V looks at what happens if despite our best efforts, we’re not yet ready to move forward in this application cycle. For some, taking extra time - in the form of a gap year, for example – might make sense, and might give an opportunity to showcase growth and improvement. In this episode, Dr. V focuses on some helpful considerations when deciding whether to move forward in this cycle or a future one. She also reviews how imposter syndrome can hold us back as early as our premed years, and discusses an approach to tackle this. At the end of the day, everyone’s path is different, and only you can decide what’s best for you. Today’s episode can provide inspiration and insight as you navigate your journey.
