Glad to see you around here bro. It is definitely a great feeling seeing other members of the Divine 9 going into medicine. I am a proud member of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Inc. Hope all is blessed with you bro, God bless!

Omega Psi Phi checkin in.....and yeah you're right, black greek pre-meds are scarce, but thats pretty much due to the overall rarity of black pre-meds as a whole, especially male. I'm 95% sure that I'm the only black male pre-med at my state school of 11,000 students, excluding freshmen, and there are 3 black female pre-meds. One of which is my girlfriend, whose non-greek. I went to a minority program at the only med school in my state and they told us there were only 8 black males in my entire state to apply to med school this year, that is a rather sobering statistic.

I'm greek, but its not one of the divine 9. I didn't like their recruitment methods so I decided to join a social fraternity instead. Don't hold it against me though

Pi Kappa Alpha, I had planned on going A-Phi-A but I just wasn't feeling their method of recruitment. I joined Pike and really haven't looked back since, I'm thoroughly enjoying my greek experience.

Alpha man here
I agree about scarce black males that are pre-med. In my state there have been only six black males to get into the medical school over the past three or four years....I find out if I got into today but I am already accepted to a D.O. school I am VERY happy to be going to (To put it nicely, I won't be shed any tears if I don't get into my state school but its just SO much cheaper....) Where are the rest of you guys going? |

As, my A Phi Brother had said: 'I didn't know where to post it.' So, Nothing is Private about our private life. The Dr. see it. Why won't they say anything.-I am a psychology student was until I had graduated...However, (A Phi), it had seemed like a good place to post it here in the Healthcare section... |

Exodus 4:25 But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son's foreskin and touched {Moses'} feet with it. [a] "Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me," she said. 26 So the LORD let him alone. (At that time she said "bridegroom of blood," referring to circumcision.) Genesis $ 10 The LORD said, "What have you done? Listen! Your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground. 11 Now you are under a curse and driven from the ground, which opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand. 12 When you work the ground, it will no longer yield its crops for you. You will be a restless wanderer on the earth." However, we as professional are suppose to ignore the symptoms of the human being and treated as a human being. Meaning: 'No, his color did not turn that color because he was failing...' 'No, had nothing to do with constipation.' Rather than, his skin is that color because it is enriched with the natural nutrients of the soil. |

Sophisticated lady of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc! Shout out to all members of the D9 family!
Unfortunately at my institution, we are not greek heavy. I think I can count everyone that is D9 from the medical, dental, and graduate school on both hands :-(. |

It is never too late to express your interest in a greek letter organization. There are even members that have joined our organization (as I'm sure in the others) as senior citizens. A little tid bit..."pledging" is not really a term that should be used. Just a heads up :-). |
