Hi there Y sorry in advance for typos. Hi Tyler. I went to a really bad high school. I took honors my junior and senior years as well as academic decathlon just to feel i could compete with other high schools.I too wanted to go to med school. My dream was Vanderbilt but I didn't apply because my sat's were in the thirteen hundreds and I thought I wasn't good enough. I got accepted to the honors program at the u of arizona on a regents waiver. Thought my dreams ouwould come true but you just never know. Mom got sick and I had to drop out. Years later went to a local medical tech school for phlebotomy. It was one of the best things that ever happened to me. I was in the med field but not dictated by my career. I was good at what I did but didn't worry about prestige like I did in college. Now the sky is the limit for me because I recently went blind and can go to school for whatever I want. Scary l o o l. I feel like a senior in college again. I'll be starting at the community college level like a lot of my young twenties friends are doing. Smaller classes, less money, easy trandfer. Wish I had started with comm college before....the trans to univ was really tough.

Above all though, don't compare yourself to others. You are your own person, and as long as you are true to yourself and like yourself, are proud of your own accomplishments, you cannot fail. Good luck and keep us posted.

Hugs,
Rayna
