Guys... I'm not
Gina:
And see, I think that's a wise position to take.... having a pretty good idea of where you'd like to be now but knowing that God will place you where -- well, wherever that may be!
:)
Exciting times for you, Alex.
acomplishedartis:
yeah, that's the attitude Alex!
I try to do alike.

Hey all,
Just thought I'd give you the final end to this chapter.
I scored a 28, which was no where what I needed. I needed atleast a 33 or higher on my MCAT score.
So what does it all mean? Well it means for now, I probably am not getting into med school.
Where do I go from here? Well I keep moving forward. Finish my bachelors of science in biology and then take it from there as to where God wants me to go.
I still want to be a Dr. and I'm not giving up on that..I can't see myself doing anything else in this life. I went down that road before, looking, wondering, not wanting to work for what appeared to be the only thing for me to do with my life. It all brought me back to the reality though that, that is where I belong. Well now It's just going to take me a little longer to get there than what I was hoping. It also means ill be retaking the MCAT. Quite a nitemare and I don't look forward to having to do it again if that be the case but God never said it was going to be easy and in fact we know it is through much tribulation that we enter into the kingdom. So Jesus bring the rain. Let me love the sick, your flock and children as you did. Teach me what it means to be like you.
What do I take from all this? Well aside from what I Just mentioned; I have no regrets in how hard I studied for this exam and I am so thankful for all the prayers that were sent my way. I have never studied so hard in my life and I know it is no doubt that it is because of all your prayers and love. All of you who upheld me in your prayers day and night. For that I am forever thankful and I know it made a huge difference.
I went into my prepatory class scoring 17 and below on practice mcats, the highest I peaked was a 30 on practice towards the end of my long studying and on the final test I scored a 28. Not what I was hoping and praying for but God has a reason for all things.
Can't say I'm not bummed but I also can't say this means game over or the end. I know it doesn't.
Anyway thank you all for everything.
God bless,
Alex
P.S. if anyone knows any scriptural verses about overcoming adversity, beating the odds or scriptures of success that are uplifting, feel free to share them. :) Thanks.

Hi Alex
Ho well, that's how it was spooned to hapen. You still have the knowelege of all that much studies and better skills for studying long and hard. Don't let any institution to put you down. You have the right attitude. Now days with the internet you can learn so much from journals and respectful websites.
Does being a nutrition scientist catch your attention? Just wondering...

Hello Janine,
Thank you for your encouraging words. I suppose, if someone finds inspiration then great.
My selfish mind isn't finding much comfort in that thought right now though but that's not your fault or anyone else's.
But I don't want to end on that note, I am very sensitive to your encouragements, kind words and never ceasing prayers for me. I can't thank you enough for that.
Moises,
I'm not sure, I never looked into it and to be honest my mind is still set on one thing. I'm a stubborn guy, the Lord made me stubborn whether it's for the better or worst remains to be seen. In some area's I suppose it can be a good thing because it keeps me striving and moving forward. I'm not one to accept defeat but again if the Lord wants me in another field or another area of the medical field than He's got to speak up and move me in that direction otherwise I'm going forward.
I always had the impression God wanted me to be a Dr. So i don't know what to say other than if at first you don't succeed, try, try again.
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
I am taking nutritional biochem, I believe, next semester for my minor in chemistry with my B.S. of biology but that's up in the air and if I do take it, I highly doubt it will change my desire from wanting to help save lives to being more specifically involved in nutritional affairs only.
