UCD SEAM Medicine-Focused Study Tracker

I'm building my academic knowledge from the ground up.

This is to be the best applicant for UCD once I'm old enough to apply.

As of March, I have 9 months until applications open.

Philosophy

After much research, I'll be (mostly) following Khan Academy

Wildly regarded as the best self-study tool online

This plan is set to lead into heavier, more complex topics; these 9 months are to solidify my foundation as an academic.

[MaxWrite.Online] is also my public study journal; proof of my daily commitment to be the best SEAM+ candidate possible and ultimately earn that M.D.
