“Hello everyone! I am thrilled to announce our book Diary of a Med Student is now officially on sale on Amazon and Barnes & Noble! Amazon Link: http://bit.ly/buydoams We at the UCI School of Medicine have been blown away by the support our project has garnered, receiving more than 200 medical student stories from over 50 med schools across the country. I believe this is a great resource for pre-medical students to see what it’s like to be a medical student. We are so excited where this book could lead and what it could mean for UCI. Please feel free to share these links, as well as the attached cover of our book, to friends and family. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the DOAMS Scholarship Fund dedicated to incoming and current medical students. Details to come on our website. Huge thanks to SketchyMedical for writing our Foreword and to Dr. Abraham Verghese, Online MedEd, and Boards and Beyond for contributing praise in the book. A very special thank you to UCI’s Dean Stamos for writing our Preface and Dr. Shapiro for writing our Afterword. Thank you and let us know if you need anything at all!”
