Next, for pre-med studies you probably should concentrate in science courses. I suggest taking as much Biology and Chemistry as you can. Think about how you did in these kinds of classes as you worked for your GED. Get to know your professors. Often they have contacts at other schools and may be able to ease your entry at Northeastern, or elsewhere if you so decide. If you need help in a class these are the people to go to. Let them see you’re interested, and as they explain problems, try to get a feeling for how they think about the problem.

Your dream is an achievable goal. Pursue it. Your determination is evident in your posting. You can try, and perhaps fail. But if you don’t try, you’ve failed already.
