Because, first of all, I had decided to be a doctor in fourth grade.
Right, right.
And this was based on a...
a professions day where a doctor came to our class, and I was so impressed by this person that that second I decided to be a doctor because he was kind, he was thoughtful, he answered my question, he appeared interested in what I had to say.
And so saying if you're poor and you don't have resources, saying I'm going to be a doctor is easier said than done.
Sure.
And in fact, I did have challenges.
But I'll tell you a couple stories, though, that tells you how the system works, even though you haven't done all the typical things to make it work.
And so I'll tell you how I got into medical school and how I got into college.
I was so clueless about college, even though I said I was going to go to college.
I was in a science class and there was a girl sitting next to me and she was filling out her college application.
I had no clue about that.
You had to apply or?
Yeah.
I was sort of waiting until I was supposed to have to.
Sure, sure.
So I looked at this girl.
I asked her what she was doing.
She said, well, I'm applying to college.
And this is the application.
