Salam all. Jazak Allah Khair for your support in helping grow our community of ambitious and professionally minded Muslims. For logistical reasons, we will be closing this Skool group and transitioning Tajdid over to a WhatsApp community. Please join at: https://chat.whatsapp.com/HWl54yzmyJP2FWiqoz4n95

Salaam! Interested in speaking to a mentor about getting into med school? Tajdid is working with Muslims in Medicine to roll out our small group sign-ups for the summer. Check out the spreadsheet (linked below) to find a mentor of interest, we have 2 for med school advice. The sessions are capped at 6 students per mentor. Link: https://bit.ly/3zRYXg8

Assalamu Alaykum. Interested in providing specific advice to resident and/or med school applicants about your specialty or application experience? We are gathering interest in small group meet-ups where you can meet with a limited number of students to impart your wisdom and advice for matching at your institution / specialty. Instead of sitting through the same generic application panels on zoom where you can only give general pointers to an audience you can’t really interact with, the idea of these small group sessions is to create a supportive environment where you can actually get to know the applicants and give no holds barred advice. You can sign up to lead a virtual or in-person session for any single hour you're available, and after we’ve gathered enough session leads we will let applicants sign up to meet with leads such as yourself. If interested, fill out the sign-up form linked here. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1OYlOgRjKibCzC4PpQ5xuzmi5X_TOnpdBHB1y_F6mli4/
