Sarah Asprec: Final Photo Essay

The Pre-Med Student Life

Entering college, you will soon get asked the repetitive question of "what's your major?". Some may say how fun one major can be, or another may tell you how switching to another one is better. None, however, compares to the campus-wide sympathy for those who choose to enter into Pre-medical (Pre-med). Pre-med majors are known for an even more demanding college lifestyle. It doesn't come to surprise when you hear that a pre-med student stayed up till five in the morning studying for a seven AM exam, or when you find one buying their third coffee for the day. Yes, it may seem exaggerated, but I chose to follow around three pre-med students in their day-to-day life, and you can see for yourself whether they are the "harder" working students.
