    I graduated with a 1.6 GPA, and at the bottom 11 percentile of my senior class. I Ended up doing 10 years in the military 3 Army guard, 7 US Navy. I became a corpsman in the Navy specializing as a respiratory therapist. During my time in the military and a year after separating it took me a total of 11 years to get past remedial courses, undergrad, and PA prereqs. I recently got accepted to PA school. This story is all too familiar. Glad to see that there are other black men out there finding ways to overcome and achieve success.

Got caught up in the reaction force when Russia invaded last year and hot off a divorce a couple months ago that turned sour, all of which held up my educational goals. But now that I’m on my own I can actually focus everything on education. I totally forgot I made this comment tbh, I’ve since turned my sights on a law career. I actually start classes next week tbh. It was a rough 3 years. Deployed twice and the divorce happened, which was planned but the real her came out and our son got caught in the middle. So now that I’m living alone and In a new state. Im back on my bs. And I’m in a non-deployable unit so I can focus with no distractions. I even sat down and had a conversation with a physician who didn’t start medical school until he was 32 who also reassured me that it wasn’t too late, but the whole divorce thing took a huge mental total on me, only because I had to leave my son behind, I couldn’t care less about the wife. But yeah, that’s where I’m at now 🤣

    Hello Antonio J Webb. I share a similar story to you in that my lack of knowledge of the medical school process (I am from the UK) but unlike you I did not have the conviction of wanting to study medicine from 17 years old, my conviction and volition to study medicine developed at the relatively mature age of 24 years old. I plan on applying to medical school at either 26 or 27 years of age because most medical courses in the UK are 6 years I will graduate at either 33 or 34 years of age, doing a course like one did the Georgetown Post Bac GEMS programme to enable me to apply to medical school, 10/11 years after someone who chose to do Medicine earlier from 18 and qualified at 23 years old. I am currently an ECG technician, as an ECG technician I am developing traits I would not otherwise have (such as empathy, patience and building a rapport with the patients I see) had I applied to medical school with just brief work experience. I now know the difference between a job and career, a career offers development, increased opportunity and responsibility; most jobs do not. You are an inspiration, you were not moulded by you environment. Thank You

    Dr. Webb you are a great encouragement. I took the MCAT last year and made a 483, I took it again and made a 488 after hiring a tutor and completing a Kaplan course. I plan to do the same as you did and take off a full year to diligently study for the MCAT with no distractions besides continuing working as an ED Scribe. I’ve currently completed one medical school interview and received my letter of denial 3 days ago. It felt like a giant slap in the face but I will not let it discourage me from becoming a physician. I look forward to one day receiving my White Coat and passing all medical boards. It makes my day receiving a notification that you’ve posted a new video. There is always something new to look forward to in your post. Keep up the good work!

    Congrats bro, this is a perfect example why I tried to never judge some of the Joes that I worked with. They aren't just PV2s, PFCs, or SPCs, they are real human beings with a ton of potential and capabilities. I gave so much respect to all of them pursuing degrees while active duty. I know a few junior enlisted that have gone on to PA school, dental school, and med school.

I am looking to set myself up for med school within the next few years as a non-traditional student (I am 26). Your videos are always helpful and your message of perseverance and goonies-never-say-die attitude is inspirational to many people.
