Ask a Medical Student Blog

Hey guys,

I’m Eugene, a third year MD/PhD student at Penn. One of the JMPHS leadership people wanted to do a blog where people can ask questions about various aspects of being pre-med, applying to medical school, and being a medical student. Since I’m in lab most of the time these days and get all sorts of down-time, I figured I’d sign up. Here’s how this will work. You e-mail me your questions at eugenekh@mail.med.upenn.edu. Please put “Ask a med student” in the subject line. I will pick a few worthy questions and post my answers on a regular basis. Feel free to ask anything - I won’t reveal who asked the questions.

A little bit about me:

I’m from Brooklyn, and I did my undergrad at Columbia, where I majored in biochemistry. I graduated in 2005 and came straight to Penn. I’m doing the combined MD/PhD program, so I expect to be here until roughly 2013. Chances are that some of you will finish college and medical school before I will.
