Before my first year of medical school, I got the opportunity to participate in the Pre-Matriculation program. . I'm a first-generation student and I was really nervous about coming into medical school. I didn't have that guidance. Because my parents didn't go to college, they couldn't really help me through that process. And they definitely didn't know anything about the MCAT, or about how to get to into medical school. . So, it was really helpful to have Pre-Matric’ and to have mentors and TA's, who were second-years, that could tell me, 'This is how I got through my first year.' . That, for me, just eased my nerves. . If I see people who look like me, people who are also first-generation students, who also come from low income households, and if they made it through their first year, then that gives me hope and the security that I can make it as well. . It's not something that I really understood until I was in their shoes and I was able to become a TA. . So now we're second years and all these incoming students who are underrepresented students, they have someone to look up to, who they have these things in common with. . It’s so important to have that representation of someone who looks like you, who has made it through — and you can kind of look up and see the light at the end of the tunnel. .
