A poem about #firstgen#medstudents and #physicians written by @OpenAI:
First generation med students,
With dreams as big as the skies,
Fighting through the struggles,
With determination in their eyes.
They pave the way,
For those who come after,
Breaking barriers,
A shining example,
Of what can be achieved,
With hard work and ample.
Their legacy will live on,
Through the lives they touch,
A true inspiration,
For those who have much.
With each patient they heal,
They honor their past,
#FirstGen Quote #1
"Being a First-Gen #MedStudent means my family gets disappointed in me and believes I am distancing myself from them when in actuality I am just trying to pass my test."
