This site is the interactive portion to the newly published book, "Just Trying To Be A Doctor," authored by Dr. Stephen E. Griffith. Each year many students apply to few positions. The majority of students starting out on this journey never make it to medical school. For a young student, it is a nerve-wracking, at times embarrassing, yet also rewarding process. This site is a forum for readers to discuss the book, as well as their own experiences in applying and traveling through medical school.
