Hello everyone! My name is Lauren and I am a senior at FSU. I have been an SBA with kaplan alittle over a year now! It has been so fun to grow with my fellow peers! I would like to take a moment to talk about what my Summer 2024 looks like! I plan to graduate this fall, so it is definitely coming sooner than later flooding me with mixed emotions. I am looking forward to my future in medicine and wanted to share what my summer has looked like so far. I indulged in summer classes for the first 6 weeks of this summer, which was overwhelmingly fast-paced. Im sure those of you who have taken 6-week courses can agree they are no easy task. Since I have finished those I have quite some time on my hands before my last undergrad semester. I am using this time to do a variety of things I love. I have started volunteering at the local food bank. I also am taking a CMA course that I will finish in about a month. I currently work part-time at the hospital which has been a blast. Beyond that, I am going on a trip to Mexico for my 21st in August which I am SO SO SO looking forward to. I spend much of my free time now at the pool or on the tennis court. As much as I love downtime as a pre-med student many of you know its hard to take a moment to relax when there is so much to prepare for. I am going to start studying for the MCAT in a few weeks to apply for the next cycle! Would love to hear what you guys are doing, any tips or tricks? Thank you guys for taking a moment to hear about what I have going on this summer, keep up the amazing work! 💗💗💗

    Hello Lauren! Thank you for sharing your exciting Summer 2024 plans with us! It's amazing to hear about all the wonderful things you've been up to, from your dedication to volunteering at the food bank, taking a CMA course, and working at the hospital, to your upcoming birthday trip to Mexico! It sounds like you've been keeping busy and making the most of your time. Balancing academics, work, and personal interests can be challenging, but you're doing a fantastic job at it. Starting to prepare for the MCAT shows your drive and determination towards your future in medicine. Keep up the great work, and remember to take breaks and enjoy some relaxation too. Have a great time in Mexico!

    Hey Lauren! I'm also going into Senior year, and it's so bittersweet; I can't believe how fast the time has gone! I swear we just started freshman year, and somehow, we're about to be experiencing all of the "lasts" of undergrad. I'm so excited for the fresh start and new opportunities that come along with post-grad, though!

    I love that you've got a trip coming up for your 21st, it's going to be so fun! I had my 21st in May and spent it in downtown Chicago, it was the most fun weekend with my friends! Virtually celebrating with you, happy early birthday 🎉
