This interactive workshop welcomes community college and university premed students, parents, guardians, and supporters for an open conversation with Rachel Grubbs, Founder and Advisor at Polaris Results. Participants will gain practical insight into how families can encourage academic growth, support healthy decision making, understand the medical school application process, and help students remain focused without adding unnecessary pressure. The session will also address common concerns surrounding coursework, extracurricular activities, timelines, application preparation, and the emotional realities of pursuing medicine. Come, ask your questions, and get answers in a welcoming environment designed around student success. Hear directly from an experienced source instead of relying on second hand information, bad advice, or people who have no clue about the admissions process. Every premed journey is different, and informed support can help students move forward with confidence, resilience, purpose, and belief in their white coat dreams while staying true to their individual goals.
