“I am 33 and attended the OldPreMeds Conference last year in California—it was a life changing experience. I hope the conference comes back one day and isn’t discontinued permanently. I have always wanted to pursue medicine, but was told by so many that it was a path only for pure geniuses. I have never personally known a doctor in my life and I was the first in my family to even go to college. I had the impression that doctors were so smart that I would never be able to carry on a conversation with one. Through the OldPreMeds Conference, forums, and Dr. Gray’s “The PreMed Years" podcast I was able to go from a dream to an actuality. Dr. Ryan has an incredible talent for breaking down information and conveying it in a way that not only makes sense but is encouraging. It amazes me at how difficult it is to find information as a premed—even after meeting with a premed advisor years ago I had no clue what to do until listening to this podcast. This podcast, as well as “The PreMed Years", has propelled me into being what I feel is the making of a stellar candidate for medical school. I went from a full time job doing something I didn’t really enjoy to having a definitive plan for applying to medical school and entering into a DIY post-bacc program in only four months after finding this podcast! I wondered for EIGHT YEARS how I could possibly begin the path towards medicine; it only took FOUR MONTHS of listening to Dr. Ryan’s podcast to figure it out and actualize the plan. I left my job and am only one year away from taking the MCAT and applying to medical school thanks to Dr. Ray and Richard Levy’s service to the premed community. It is obvious that I cannot recommend his website and podcasts enough.”
