Highlight & Takeaways

Session 25

What do you do when your medical school dreams and personal life collide? You master the art of disciplined organization. Join host Deana Golini as she interviews Ashley Abing, an M2 at New York Medical College, who just balanced the academic intensity of second year with her own wedding weekend. Ashley, an alumna of the Brown University Master’s in Medical Sciences, shares how she transitioned from a first-generation immigrant household to Johns Hopkins and eventually NYMC. She dives into her chance discovery of Ophthalmology during her gap year, her strategy for managing “Ophthalmic” research, and how her Master’s program provided the academic “blueprint” to survive medical school didactics. If you’re wondering how to maintain your identity, your relationships, and your grades all at once, Ashley’s story is your masterclass. If Ashley’s journey provides the clarity you need for your residency path, like this video, share your thoughts in the comments, and subscribe for more insider blueprints for med school success!
