Abstract

As a Cabot School alumni, I returned to Cabot School to talk to the students about opportunities in medicine. Cabot School is considered environmentally disadvantaged by the Agency of Education. By definition, "the individual comes from an environment that has inhibited him/her from obtaining the knowledge, skill and abilities required to enroll in and graduate from an undergraduate or graduate school." The percentage of students achieving proficiency in math and reading/language arts is lower than the Vermont state average for the 2016-17 school year. The goal of this project was to share my journey to medical school with the Cabot students and introduce them to careers in medicine.
