TL;DR
* Medical school is all-consuming, but sometimes you need to take time to deal with the slings and arrows of life.
* Don’t be afraid that you’ll jeopardize your career by taking a leave during medical school. Better to do it before your situation causes harm to your test scores or grades.
* A Brown University study finds that schools are failing in their diversity goals for admitting URMs.
