Goals

There are many goals for this Melanin Mentor, MD project.

Chief among these goals is to provide Black pre-med students with appropriate and valuable advice on what makes one a strong applicant to medical school. Topics will include coursework, medical exposure, service opportunities, research, and leadership, among many, many, many other topics.

Information will be provided in a relatable and easy-to-understand format and posts will be regularly uploaded to the site.

The big goal is to increase medical school acceptance among Black pre-med students. The ULTIMATE goal is to increase the number of Black physicians in practice, with the hope that doing so will lessen the healthcare disparities in this country related to race.
