Personal Statement:
When I began preparing for medical school applications, I knew I had a strong interest in pursuing a career in family medicine. I was thrilled to discover the fmSTAT program due to its unique opportunities for enrichment and professional development, which set students up for success in applying to residency and beyond. From shadowing opportunities, retreats, 1:1 mentorship, scholarly projects, personalized support, and the tight-knit fmSTAT community, I knew I wanted to be a part of it!
