Undergrad College: Rice University '20
Work Experience: During my time at Rice, I mentored dozens of high school 鲍鱼直播 through the college application process, along with editing essays and tutoring 鲍鱼直播 for the ACT/SAT. I also interned at a medical technology startup, conducted research in Brazil, and gave a TEDx talk. I recently finished applying to medical school; I've been admitted to multiple schools, and will be starting in the Fall.
My Admissions Story: I remember feeling very blindsided by the admissions process and not knowing where to begin. I hope that sharing my experiences and some of the things I鈥檝e learned along the way will help guide other 鲍鱼直播 in a similar boat.
