Every time I watch a video of yours it's usually because I'm feeling hopeless. Every time I finish a video I'm left feeling inspired and motivated again. Your videos provide so much more than information and guidance, they also give us hope. Thank you Andrea!

I would love to see a video of D.O. vs. M.D.

Thank you so much for your insightful videos! Sometimes I feel like giving up but what you said at the end is so true, there are people out there who have to face great difficulties to study/ get through their daily lives and so we need to be grateful and work hard to chase our goals :)

I would definitely say that perseverance and self-motivation is extremely critical to success. Whether you have a unique story or not, everyone faces adversity in many different ways. However, attack adversity and remain humble, yet hungry. Andrea thanks for all of your advice and great channel!

I love the fact that you are very humble

Love how your channel is blossoming Andrea!! Thank you for your time & dedication

Andrea, my daughter is 2 years old right now. But someday, I'm going to send her to you to guide her in her career.

Secret to success,

You are so cheering!! Its a pleasure to watch you :-)

you're my biggest inspiration!!!

Thank you For All the vídeos you do!! I always watch them. They are very motivational and they help me through the carreer! Greetings from Mexico

I'm definitely going to be making a schedule in order to incorporate all the tasks I need to do during the day while balancing med school and studying. Thanks for the advice!

I love your videos and your blog SO MUCH :) Everytime I see that you uploaded something new, I stop doing everything I was doing to watch it :) I really want to become a doctor and you inspire me a lot. Thank you :)

Hi Andrea, I am a medical grad from India and i am currently stuggling with residency prep here. Your video was really insightful and i want to thank you for sharing you tips. :) have a good day!

I totally agree with you Andrey, having a mentor is such a big deal for someone with high goals! this year I'm taking my MCAT and no teacher has ever believed in me and my hard work so sometimes I feel disappointed and willing to give up on my dream since my teachers treat me like I'm stupid!

Ok so this is kind of an unusual question: How time consuming is it TRULY to be a doctor? I know it varies with your specialty but is it possible to be a part time doctor and to even have a family that you watch grow??

Could you do a video on finding good mentors? 😊😊

I absolutely love your videos! You have the perfect amount of information in them. It is usually hard to find solid information about how people got into competitive specialties, so I am very grateful for your honesty. I have also been interested in Ophthalmology since high school, and I'll be sure to take your advice on getting a mentor. I hope to do research in Ophthalmology, also. Thank you so much Andrea! :)

I'm about to start med school in just under 2 weeks, so I've been watching your videos and really absorbing your advice!
