I wish to be in the top 10% of my medical school class. I am very intelligent, and a very hard-worker. However, I'm pretty sure the rest of my class is also very intelligent and hard-working and thus scoring in the top 10% is no easy task. So, this realization has got me wondering whether or not I'll be able to be in the top 10% of my class and still have time to train and be competitive in the sport of my choice.
Basically, my 2 responsibilities will be studying and training/competing--no family or money issues to worry about. I'm just worried that studying and going to class will take up 100% of my awake time, especially if I want to be in the top 10%. Should I just give up my sport come medical school, and resume it during residency or something? Are my worries legitimate?
