Why I chose the BMSc Program:  I chose the BMSc program because I believed that it would best help me achieve my goal of going to Medical School.

How did my BMSc degree prepare me for my future goals?  My BMSc degree delivered a curriculum that formed a good foundation for the subject matter that I am being taught in my medical program.

What inspired me to pursue an advanced degree: I was inspired to pursue an advanced degree because after I graduated from Western, I still felt like I had a lot more to learn. I also wanted to put myself in the best position possible to help others.

Favourite Western memory:  My favourite Western memory is going to O-week Opening Ceremonies as a Resident Assistant (RA) with all the incoming frosh.

Best thing about being a student at Western: The best thing about being a Western student is being surrounded by so many different kinds of people to learn from.

Advice to students considering Western: Make every day, every experience, and every friendship count. It all goes by too fast.
