Would Someone with a Background Similar to Kevin Gates Get Accepted to Med School?

[shaq93]

For those of you that don't know of Kevin Gates, he is a musician from Baton Rouge, Louisiana who has served time in prison for what I believe a drug conviction. Before you discredit him because of this, while in prison he obtained a master's degree in psychology, he scored a 31 on the ACT at 16 years old while living in a financially disadvantaged area, and he is rather articulate when he wants to be as you can see from watching his interviews. Given this, do you think that Kevin, or someone like Kevin, without the abundance of tattoos and diamond encrusted teeth, would have a shot at gaining acceptance to a US MD/DO program if he had a competitive GPA and MCAT score?

Idk this guy or what his crime is but if he was convicted of something as serious as drug trafficking or murder then he will never be admitted. It is unimportant how intelligent he is, there are 30,000 other applicants who are not drug traffickers or murderers lol..

He would most likely get his ass eaten up by the ADCOMMS.

This post is hysterical!

I am a firm believer that anything is indeed possible. HOWEVER, a ex drug trafficker? ex convict? being a doctor? being MY DOCTOR?
lol... you see where I'm going with this. Let's say that he some how, he received an M.D. or D.O. Who would in their right mind would trust him to be their doctor? which hospital/clinic would give him the opportunity for internship/residency.

I don't want to be "that guy" who shoots dreams/ideas down, but this is by far a long shot. You're not aiming for the sky or the moon. Your aiming for heaven.

BTW! I just googled kevin gates & let me tell you. I would be scared sh**less if this guy was my doctor.

Not gonna lie, I was a little impressed with Kevin gates when I first heard him talk. More articulate than you'd think. But medicine is a highly conservative profession, and I don't think face tattoos would fly so well with adcoms.
