Have you ever wondered what medical school is like? Do you wish you had something to help you weigh the options between medical school, a doctorate degree, or some other field of work? Do you want to know more about what to expect in medical school so that you can tailor your resume and applications toward a reality rather than an expectation?
In this book, Taylor goes through the process of getting into medical school to graduating from it. He explains the physical steps involving the courses you'll take to the board exams you'll study for. He explores the emotions involved in each step and what transformations occur as you collect new experiences along the way. He tells you what it takes and explains the various benefits and drawbacks of MD versus DO, U.S. versus Caribbean, and doctor versus other positions within healthcare.
Inspiration for the book arose from Taylor's experience with the lack of tangible resources available to high school and college students while thinking about and applying to medical school. After graduating in March of 2020 and starting his career in the COVID-19 ICU, he set out to make sure the next generation of medical students has a better understanding of the process before committing themselves to a singular track.
Medical school is a great option for those who understand what it takes and what to expect. For many, it takes people by surprise. Patients need doctors who are lively, enriched in their work, and engaged with one another in collegial spirit. The best way to become the best doctor is to know about the process before it takes you by surprise.
